If you wanted to comment on pc propaganda I'd also recommend reviewing books on Amazon. I have reviewed a number of books, including 'The Better Angels of Our Nature' in which I borrowed your criticisms regarding MAO-A research. It's an enjoyable and easy way to reach mainstream readers.
Fascinating blog. Can't remember where I bookmarked it from... I will be certain to check back, as a few years ago the T.V said Maori's did NOT have a warrior gene as they (being you, I guess) couldn't find one. If you search "Maori" you'll probably get the lie they are "indigenous" and no mention of comparable (to groid) violence.
I was surprised to see New Zealand didn't take first place for infanticide, that's how good the maries are.

Thanks, see you again~
I found this book review in New Scientist about the physiological causes of violence. MAOA is mentioned as a notable genetic cause.
