Recent studies have sparked a controversy by suggesting that an unusually large number of African Americans possess a gene that is linked with violent behavior. The gene contributes to the regulation of the amounts of monoamine oxidase in the individual's brain. This enzyme affects levels of neurotransmitters that are known to play an important role in modulating emotion and behavior, such as dopamine, serotonin and norepinephrine.
There are different versions of this gene, and each version contributes to differences in the amount of monoamine oxidase the individual's brain is likely to have. This is because the difference in these versions has to do with differences in the number of times a specific section for its promoter region appears. The three repeat alleles lead to unusually low levels of the enzyme, and the two repeat alleles lead to lower levels yet.
The early 1990s saw an explosion in the research of the role monoamine oxidase plays in the brain after the study of a family with a rare mutation had an extremely high number of violent criminals. The mutation this family had led to very low levels of monoamine oxidase and low IQs. It came to be known as "Brunner's syndrome" after H.G. Brunner, the researcher who discovered the gene. Along with his team of researchers, they authored the paper "X-Linked Borderline Mental Retardation with Prominent Behavioral Disturbance: Phenotype, Genetic Localization, and Evidence for Disturbed Monoamine Metabolism."
They summarized their findings as follows:
"We have identified a large Dutch kindred with a new form of X-linked nondysmorphic mild mental retardation. All affected males in this family show very characteristic abnormal behavior, in particular aggressive and sometimes violent behavior. Other types of impulsive behavior include arson, attempted rape, and exhibitionism. Attempted suicide has been reported in a single case. The locus for this disorder could be assigned to the Xpll-21 interval between DXS7 and DXS77 by linkage analysis using markers spanning the X chromosome. A maximal multipoint lod score of 3.69 was obtained at the monoamine oxidase type A (MAOA) locus in Xpll.23-11.4. Results of 24-h urine analysis in three affected males indicated a marked disturbance of monoamine metabolism. These data are compatible with a primary defect in the structural gene for MAOA and/or monoamine oxidase type B (MAOB). Normal platelet MAOB activity suggests that the unusual behavior pattern in this family may be caused by isolated MAOA deficiency."

Researchers were later able to genetically engineer mice with an artificial version of this gene, and these rats were likewise more aggressive than other rats. In 1995, Cases and colleagues:
"Deficiency in monoamine oxidase A (MAOA), an enzyme that degrades serotonin and norepinephrine, has recently been shown to be associated with aggressive behavior in men of a Dutch family. A line of transgenic mice was isolated in which transgene integration caused a deletion in the gene encoding MAOA, providing an animal model of MAOA deficiency. In pup brains, serotonin concentrations were increased up to ninefold, and serotonin-like immunoreactivity was present in catecholaminergic neurons. In pup and adult brains, norepinephrine concentrations were increased up to twofold, and cytoarchitectural changes were observed in the somatosensory cortex. Pup behavioral alterations, including trembling, difficulty in righting, and fearfulness were reversed by the serotonin synthesis inhibitor parachlorophenylalanine. Adults manifested a distinct behavioral syndrome, including enhanced aggression in males."
Numerous other researchers replicated these findings in rats in 2002, 2007, 2008. A breakthrough emerged in 2002 when Caspi and colleagues find that individuals with a 2R or 3R version of the gene exhibited aggression, but only when they had difficult upbringings. They found that it is therefore very important to examine the complex way socioeconomic status and genes interact with one another. Clearly, it is not a "nature vs. nurture" issue, but as is often the case, a question of a very complicated interaction between the two. Bryd and Manuch found this in 2013 as well in a meta-analysis, in which 27 studies on the subject were collated in "MAOA, Childhood Maltreatment, and Antisocial Behavior: Meta-analysis of a Gene-Environment Interaction"; 20 of these cohorts were found to replicate the effects.
"Background
In a seminal study of gene-environment interaction, childhood maltreatment predicted antisocial behavior more strongly in male subjects carrying an MAOA promoter variant of lesser, compared with higher, transcriptional efficiency. Many further investigations have been reported, including studies of other early environmental exposures and female subjects. Here, we report a meta-analysis of studies testing the interaction of MAOA genotype and childhood adversities on antisocial outcomes in predominantly nonclinical samples.
Methods
Included were 27 peer-reviewed, English-language studies published through August, 2012, that contained indicators of maltreatment or other family (e.g., parenting, sociodemographic) hardships; MAOA genotype; indices of aggressive and antisocial behavior; and statistical test of genotype-environment interaction. Studies of forensic and exclusively clinical samples, clinical cohorts lacking proportionally matched control subjects, or outcomes nonspecific for antisocial behavior were excluded. The Liptak-Stouffer weighted Z-test for meta-analysis was implemented to maximize study inclusion and calculated separately for male and female cohorts.
Results
Across 20 male cohorts, early adversity presaged antisocial outcomes more strongly for low-activity, relative to high- activity, MAOA genotype (p = .0044). Stratified analyses showed the interaction specific to maltreatment (p = .00000082) and robust to several sensitivity analyses. Across 11 female cohorts, MAOA did not interact with combined early life adversities, whereas maltreatment alone predicted antisocial behaviors preferentially, but weakly, in female subjects of high-activity MAOA genotype (p = .02).
Conclusions
We found common regulatory variation in MAOA to moderate effects of childhood maltreatment on male antisocial behaviors, confirming a sentinel finding in research on gene-environment interaction. An analogous, but less consistent, finding in female subjects warrants further investigation."
Thus, this effect is consistent in male subjects, and somewhat prevalent in abused female subjects, though the latter finding is less consistent. Some studies have linked low-activity MAOA to obesity and credit card debt as well. Roux 2014 , Vaughn et al. 2009 , Beaver et al. 2009 , and Beaver et al. 2013 have all found that possession of low-activity MAOA genes increase the risk that the individual will end up in prison. He writes in "Exploring the association between the 2-repeat allele of the MAOA gene promoter polymorphism and psychopathic personality traits, arrests, incarceration, and lifetime antisocial behavior":

Well, he lives in Indiana. From what I understand that isn't exactly southern, but I get your point.
My own personal opinion regarding African Americans is that it is more culture than anything else. You take a black person who immigrated here from another country and you will see behavior that is completely different than the typical African American. Much of the anti social, criminal, and violent elements embedded in the African American culture are remnants of the old slave culture. After they were freed they were still isolated and oppressed for many years. So you have the old slave culture percolating in isolation, poverty, and oppression and the result is this dysfunctional culture that they are today struggling to emerge from. What keeps them from progressing out of this culture is a nearly wholesale denial about these dysfunctional elements in their culture. They blame everyone else for why regular people don't want them to move into their neighborhoods. They call people racist when in fact it is simply regular people trying to protect themselves.
Self preservation is not racism. Before Bill Cosby had his scandal he was one of the few constructive leaders in the black community that told them straight up what they need to do. Dr. Cornell West is another constructive leader that they need to pay attention to. But, because Hollywood and the music industry makes money on glorifying the dysfunction elements in their culture it has become a long slow process for them to progress.
They need to understand that all that rap music, ebonics, giving their children weird names, violence, crime, etc., is all part of that old slave culture. Glorifying it and defending it only serves to perpetuate their suffering and limitations.

I'm not interested in understanding, rationalizing, or excusing black behavior.
I have had plenty of experience with these bozos growing up in Cleveland, big black population, and having worked in the criminal justice system. My observations is blacks are hostile to everything they perceive as White, or what White folks value like education, obeying the law, civility, Christian values, and so on.
We all live in one society with rules and those who don't follow them must suffer the consequences. If that means locking more people up necessitating building more prisons, I'll pay the tax dollars to do it.

Stupid is the democrat party leaders getting wiped out in 2016 and insisting on doing the same thing and not changing tactics. And stupid are democrat voters who can't see that these corporate dems are akin to a boxer specifically picked to box the champ and paid off to lose. Pelosi, Schumer, Booker, etc., know their party will lose, but they don't care because of that corporate gravy train. They're like that paid off boxer designed to give a respectable fight, but destined to lose.

If that study is true, there are only 3 solutions.
1. Leave things as they are. Support them as we have for years. Continue letting them kill us and their own kind as it is just the natural thing to do. It is in their genes and they can't help it. Who ever came up with the saying "You can take the Negro out of the jungle but you can't take the jungle out of the Negro!" Was on to something scientific.
2. Spay and neuter them so this generation is the last of them. Put down the very violent as they will never change. They can't. Keep the rest from producing children. Problem is solved in about 60 years.
3. Government forced interbreeding with whites. This will over hundreds of years neutralize the violence gene. Breed it out and replace it with the more constructive peaceful white genes.
I do not support option 3.

doesn't it take someone violent to buy a human and make them a slave?
then after they rape em a few times that rotten genetics found itself a new home!!

Is the “violence gene” the same as the “evil gene”? No, I guess not, unjustified violence and unjustified killing is just one aspect of evil, although it is a significant part of it.
Liberals like to say that race is just a matter of skin color. But, no, it’s a lot deeper than that, involving statue, strength, IQ, memory, temperament, DNA, Negroid features, susceptibility to certain genetic diseases, all sorts of things. You can paint a White man Black, but that does not make him a Black man, you know, a negr0. It was once pointed out to me by a late great uncle of mine many years ago that if you look at a black man and a white man standing side by side in ultraviolent light, they have the same skin color. But that does not make them identical in ultraviolent light; it goes a lot deeper than skin color.

FUN Fact: Under Obama, race relations dipped to the lowest points since Gallup started tracking in 2001. Since 2013, when 70% thought race relations were good, it has dipped to the low 50%.
Obama also saw for the first time majority of black respondents say race relations were bad. Thanks Obama!
