El Salvadoran teenager murderes another teenager as part of gang initiation

Happened in my neck of the woods.

NEW DETAILS: Teen stabbed girl to death in Marietta as part of gang initiation

I fear that when Biden wins in November he will cave to the "open borders" radicals on the left wing of the Democratic Party and open the borders even more for fake "asylum seekers".
This is just another example of the hate and irrationality that drives the fear that grips a large portion of our citizens. FFS, in my state, people are buying shotguns and handguns at a never before seen pace.
 
People take their culture and behaviors with them. Latin America is a violent place. Maybe it’s just in the DNA of the Maya and Aztecs.
 
Latin America is a violent place.

Oppressed people are prone to violence. That's why Trump withdrew aid from Latin America. He needs the "threat".

No. People in the Eastern Block were oppressed but somehow didn’t go about mutilating one another for trivial rivalries. The violence in Central America goes back long ago. Human sacrifice and torture is just in the blood.
 
A rational and logical explanation with evidence on how behavior in pre-columbian times is transmitted “in the blood” to behavior in current times would make your claim appear intelligent instead of idiotic.
 
Compare how the Aztecs preferred to capture their revials then torture/mutulate them with the torture and death of El Bebe. Search for the video. You’ll find it.
 
I had a friend, gone now due to cancer, who was once in an outlaw biker gang. American through and through. He didn't talk about it a lot but when he did he told about some pretty heinous shit he had to do for the gang, including shootings and strong arm enforced graft. He always felt very lucky he got out alive.

Gang activity is pretty much universal everywhere.
 
Trausti:

My familiarity with pre-Columbian civilization and its practices is irrelevant.

I asked for a rational and logical explanation with evidence on how behavior in pre-columbian times is transmitted “in the blood” to behavior in current times not for a link to their practices.

Perhaps the problem is you do not understand what an  Explanation is:
An explanation is a set of statements usually constructed to describe a set of facts which clarifies the causes, context, and consequences of those facts. This description of the facts et cetera may establish rules or laws, and may clarify the existing rules or laws in relation to any objects, or phenomena examined. The components of an explanation can be implicit, and interwoven with one another.

"In the blood" is an old and obvious Metaphor. Poor choice here IMO, yes.

But perhaps you should look up the transmission of traditions somewhere in your favourite 'Pedia if you really want to know. I will watch with interest the further degeneration of a discussion into name-calling and interchange of irony and sacasm that so often spoils discussion of any subject here.
 
DNA/in the blood is a good answer for stuff like this.

What makes a tiger more violent than a jack russell terrier? DNA/in the blood

What makes a shark more violent than a goldfish? DNA/In the blood

What makes a rotweiler more violent than a golden retriever? DNA//in the blood

What other explanation is there?
