It’s statistics, so it doesn’t mean everyone shows lead-poisoned characteristics to the same degree. We’d probably be better off if we hadn’t breathed so much lead though.

Sure, I realize it’s not universal, I’m just saying counter-examples exist because I am one.
I’m also a pretty non-violent person, I’ve never been in a fight or thrown a punch in my life, even as a kid. But yeah that’s probably not the norm.
Maybe it just provokes extremist views.
