- Abstract
Some people like or enjoy fighting and being aggressive naturally whereas others oppose those violent behaviors. So, can we conclude that there are a group of people carrying crime genes genetically? Scientists had already investigated the influence of genetics and evolution on behaviors of extreme and criminal violence among human beings. They found that being aggressive and violent moderately can enhance the survival rate of an organism’s reproduction. Extreme violence is regarded as high-end variance in the evolutionary adaptive process in which the tendency for aggression and violence has adapted to each human being in moderate doses. However, it is still necessary to prevent these antisocial behaviors that are allowed by nature and evolution from happening as far as possible since there will be more crimes committing people biologically who contain criminal genes without inhibition. Sometimes disobeying natural laws is permitted and required to achieve a more peaceful and orderly world. Nonetheless, the most viable solution, medical treatment, has not developed yet because altering one’s gene purposely is not a thing that is easy to be accomplished via technology nowadays, and the uncertainty of the experimental drug also needs to be considered. However, now the two possible remedies for refraining people from committing crimes are psychological treatment and sound education which works perfectly well; the two solutions play a vital role in controlling the global crime rate.
