Black women produce more testosterone than white women and black mothers produce
more testosterone than white mothers (Cancer Causes Control. 2003; 14: 347-55). |

OK, I find 2 references to that online, but not the study. How many
women in the study? Over what period of time, etc?
Who has duplicated the results?

Well, lots of folks disagree with you on the head start thing. In
fact in Georgia, the lottery program funds pre-K for 4 year olds
because Head Start does work.

Now, this is hearsay, so I apologize that I did not look it up first, but the
person who told me is one whom I consider to be reliable. Yes, headstart works.
However, at puberty, you know, when testosterone rises, the positive effects
decline. |

Most recorded, native American history was burnt by the white men...
as for Asians, what are you talking about? |

Tamerlane, Genghis Khan, WW2 Japan and the Khmer Rouge come to mind for
Asia.
The Aztecs and Moche had some major violence issues, and then there was that
whole scalping thing that went on in North America.
There may be small socieities out there where violence is practically
unheard of (though I don't know of any), but you wont find a nonviolent
"race" or large scale civilization. |

Actually, all evidence suggests scalping was introduced by the French. War
trophies apparently have ancient roots in the West; the first written
reference to them is in the Bible.
North American warfare was more like a sporting event than anything. Yes,
accidents can result in injury or even death, but that's not how you win. |

Ive heard this about the French, but I haven't come across any evidence for
this. Heads as war trophies are known from European history and back at
least to
3000 bc in Egypt, as can be seen from the Narmer Palette. It's also known
ethnographically from Southeast Asia and Polynesia, among other places.
But decapitation and scalping are different, so it's not clear to me that
scalping can be attributed to a European introduction.

War does generally tend to have a spirit of sport about it. Encouraging a
sense of adventure and competition can help motivate warriors to battle. But
the stakes seem a bit too lethal and socially disrupting for a sense of
sport to be enough to motivate a war. Death in war isn't merely accidental.
It isn't the goal, but it's the stated means to the goal. What the goal is
for each side depends on each historical case. Obviously precontact North
American warfare was very different from European warfare of that period,
and neither was very much like what war is today. But to call it a sport as
if it were a game of water polo seems a bit of a stretch. |

Still, the NA wars with whites were self defense. I don't mean that.
Whites are insane for the things they've DONE - not just their colonization
ventures, but how they tried to destroy joy and culture everywhere they
went. Blacks are nuts now due to what they do in ethnic neighborhoods where
they've invaded since the 60s and they are now nuts in Africa too. Didn't
used to be. They are a ruined people in the inner sense. Whites DID it.
For that, they are insane. Utterly insane. |

Without archaeological evidence to the contrary, it can. Especially when
the written evidence is clear: Ever heard of bounty hunters?
Written evidence such as what? Where can I find the French origins of
scalping?
I've heard of "bounty hunters" (I watch Cowboy Bebop), but I'm not sure what
you're suggesting.
Did bounty hunters invent scalping?
[/quote:e2639dad08]
Bounties are put out on animals who are overpopulated as well. Basically, you
bring a pelt or a particular organ such as a tail or a horn to the ranger,
and you get money in return.
Suffice it to say, the US government put a bounty out on Indians. Also, you
could send Indian skulls to any naturalist trying to prove a racial theory,
or fashion them into ashtrays. (Indian bones were popular as knives.)

Actually, more like freeze tag on the plains. Definitely la crosse on the
East Coast, though.
Maybe more like playing archery with the players and other human beings as
targets.
