Why did man's canines become reduced in size as he became bipedal?? Could it be because. unlike all other primates, bipedal hominids didn't canines for fighting as they could use weapons? Did the weapon amke the man, or vice-versa?
I guess all those Neanderthals just committed mass suicide.
Liberals Wet Dream: We've ALWAYS been victims.
Might as well stop reading right there...
...and then came Winchester.
I agree.
Man is a killer by nature and its part of our nature.
The best solution is to make sure you're better at it than the next guy. Successful killers live on to create new generations.
Pacifists become extinct, along with their genes.
"Can't we all just get along?"
Ain't it the truth
So, they studied the guys in the Geico commercial?
What a crock of crap. These bozos know little more than previous anthropologists.It's just a guessing game based on inadequate data.
What a sappy, bat-brained article. Really annoying. Liberals will read every tea leaf possible to prove that mankind shouldn't be violent. There was a scifi program on last night, the plot: a robot had become violent and killed its creator. I tuned in during the trial, where they put a component into its head and it attacked the judge. A blonde...the creator's daughter, rushed forward to cradle the robot's head as they removed the bad component...then the characters spent three or four minutes lamenting violence. The poor robot was kind and gentle, as were all creatures except MAN! (Evidently lions, bears, and tigers killing prey doesn't count.) This is the new mantra of the Left. Teach your children to be kind and loving, we don't have to fight wars anymore...blah, blah, blah. (Who do they think will protect them when the Muslims decide to blow up America?) I hit the remote.

We are killer apes. We just found better ways to do it. We always will.
There used to be a creature that was called a "cave bear". This thing was a sort of grizzly that stood as much as 15 feet tall. As the name implies it lived in caves. At some point in time human beings decided they wanted to live in caves. Cave bears are now extinct.
Aren't all carnivores/omnivores, killers?
It's between groups that warfare occurs.
FedEx has a better cave man ad.

Yep, there was never a war, and people didn't hunt for food until the Jews came along and after that the Christians chimed in and helped make humans warlike and meat eaters. Muslims on the other hand have tried to take us back to the peaceful days of our early beginnings. /Sar
Oh, yeah, and forget the fact that our closest relatives, the chimps, hunt and kill other monkeys and baby humans for food(Jane Goodall documented this well). I guess chimps are learning the Judeo-christian ideology early on, right?
Take a bunch of boy toddlers, as soon as they can get up on their hind legs, their instinct is to fight/wrestle with one another. If this were not so, the human race would be now extinct.
That beats all get out - sympathizing with a robot!!
Liberals are all mentally challenged.
