Comment on Why is "I was born this way" and other "genetic predisposition" defenses almost common place? I get the physical stuff like loss of limbs but not the I was born to hate, or rape, and so forth?

I was mainly talking about courts like so and so shot up a neighborhood because he or she was born with the predisposition for hate or whatever. For me everything in life is a choice blaming your wrong choice on genetics is a cop out.

  You want me to get an article for a sentence that you think I am referencing? Do you ask all your teachers to show you articles after making a statement? It’s called giving an example. For EXAMPLE I knew this egg who fell off a wall to prove gravity I think his name was Dumpty or something.

    Actually, yes, I do. Teachers teach documents—usually primary sources if possible. If a teacher was telling me a bunch of stuff that they couldn’t show me any evidence of, I would be a little suspicious.
