I have brought this up on DU in the past and I never get many replies. And if I ask how do we begin to prevent this I get 0 replies. It seems like men and women in government, society and even here on DU never want to address this constant common. WHY!!!!!

Why won't anyone ever say that MEN are violent killers, men fill the jails, men commit violent acts......

Are we supposed to disregard this fact and and say "Oh, it's just testosterone. You have to expect and accept it" ?

This is the single factor that most killing and violent acts have in common...much more common than religion, mental illness, economic hardship, politics, etc.

I watched Vietnam by Ken Burns and Lynn Novick and it was said that animals only kill for food and self preservation. They kill because they have to. People are supposed to have a brain and be very rational but obviously men are NOT!

Yes, some women do commit violent crimes but there is no comparison so do not attempt to use that BS argument.
