Professor, with all due respect, you are making excuses for actual behavior, that is recorded and note by law enforcement, the media-your media, academics, and all the rest of those that are termed, authorities. Even your own media concedes this.https://www.cnn.com/2021/04/03/us/us-crime-rate-rise-2020/index.html
https://www.economist.com/leaders/2021/06/05/violent-crime-is-rising-in-american-cities-putting-criminal-justice-reform-at-risk So I say, based on evidence, crimes rates are not dropping they are rising. There was a recent report by biologists reporting that US testosterone levels have dropped, and if lead poisonings causes brain impairment, which it does, then the years of people driving leaded gasoline for much of the 20th century, would have caused violent crimes to skyrocket past where it actually was. I included FBI statistics on crime, but duly ask, are they reliable, just as an honest question? Anyway.https://www.fbi.gov/news/pressrel/press-releases/overview-of-preliminary-uniform-crime-report-january-june-2020 I will raise an uncomfortable question for you, by stating, maybe violent crime and theft, arson, are not entirely neurobiological in nature but cultural? Maybe for some cultures, its ok to steal and attack people of a different group? Maybe it is what is taught from each other, or at least, condoned? Here might be a supportive summary from Yale regarding your teen comment, which I can leave unchallenged.https://hraf.yale.edu/are-teens-always-troublemakers-cross-culturally-considering-bad-behavior-in-adolescents/ -----Original Message----- From: Lawrence Crowell <[email protected]> Cc: [email protected] <[email protected]> Sent: Thu, Jun 17, 2021 6:04 am Subject: Re: Was, Re: The theology of number, (Now) The Universe Learns (not released on April 1st) Crime rates have been dropping for decades. Your statements are paranoia meant to influence people. Crime rates have been dropping, though for the reason people like you think. They have been dropping mostly because the average age of males has risen, leaving fewer testosterone pumped youths that tend to be more criminal, and the other is methylated lead was removed from gasoline. Lead leads to erratic behavior and the environment is not as nearly contaminated with lead ejected from the tailpipes of cars.

Let us cut to the chase professor and conclude that we agree policy-wise on nothing. Nor, do our cohorts. So what does this suggest? I say, if we can agree on even basic principles of behavior, then a split should be considered. -----Original Message----- From: Lawrence Crowell <[email protected]> To: Everything List <[email protected]> Sent: Wed, Jun 16, 2021 8:38 pm Subject: Re: Was, Re: The theology of number, (Now) The Universe Learns (not released on April 1st) Very typical of right winged people. When there is crime somewhere that is evidence of a deep left wing or communist conspiracy.

The crimes rates, the violence, the willful self-decline nationally, performed by Barack Obama. Barrack did underfund the military, oversaw a really slow jobs recovery, and ceded world trade and business to Xi's China. These were real events and not the emotional response performed by spindle cells that are woven into a human brain. I will take Hicksville, over the progressives zones where street criminals are deeply loved and respected.

And the most important rule of all these preachers and dictators insist is to have faith, because God thinks the greatest virtue of all is stupidity, believing that something is true when there is not the slightest reason for doing so. Thus the more ridiculous an idea is that you nevertheless believe the more virtuous you are, and so the better your chances are of living in Santa Claus's workshop after you die. But if you give even the slightest hint that the idea is dumb, well, I quote George Carlin: “Religion has actually convinced people that there's an invisible man living in the sky who watches everything you do, every minute of every day. And the invisible man has a special list of ten things he does not want you to do. And if you do any of these ten things, he has a special place, full of fire and smoke and burning and torture and anguish, where he will send you to live and suffer and burn and choke and scream and cry forever and ever 'til the end of time! But He loves you. He loves you, and He needs money! He always needs money! He's all-powerful, all-perfect, all-knowing, and all-wise, somehow just can't handle money!” > Dolf secretly hated Christianity, for being tainted with what he termed, "The > Jewish pity ethic." It doesn't matter if Hitler believed in Christianity or not, what's important is that Hitler knew that tens of millions of Germans DID believe in Christianity and he could use that mind virus to get them to dance to his tune. > The comparison to Trump show's me that you are trying for a "rise," out of me Both Hitler and Trump were evil but I think Trump is more like Mussolini than Hitler as both have an air of intense incompetence and almost humorous ridiculousness hanging around them that Hitler didn't have, at least not at that high an intensity level. John K Clark See what's on my new list at Extropolis Where t'Rump is most dangerous is not with any comparison with Hitler, or similarities between the two men. Adolf Hitler was not the brightest man in history by a long stretch, but he was smarter than t'Rump. Hitler had a more sophisticated ideological construction, though still full of contradictions and nonsense, than t'Rump. Don-the-Con t'Rump is more of the "common man" sort, and is in many ways utterly stupid. Think of his statements about mainlining bleach, which is about the time he began to founder. Where the two are similar is the social gregarious process that surrounded them. They both were masters at rhetorical power, and they both had a cult following. Don-the-Con t'Rump still has that following and that is still a problem. Both men rode a wave of a mass social-manic psychosis and were good at fueling it to every higher flame heights.
