It isn't "reason" if this idea hasn't already been refuted by countless studies. Violence is a learned behavior, it isn't born into you. The reason children of violent people become violent is because it is what they are exposed to. The same can be said about black people. Because a majority of blacks in the U.S. live in low-cost, poorer, violent neighborhoods, they are exposed to it, and therefor more likely to resort to it.

The color of one's skin does not determine if one is violent or not. It is how the person is brought up, and the values instilled during that time. If one is brought up to care for all human life, no matter what, and they are constantly exposed to it, then that is, most likely, how they will be.

I will admit that there are cases where someone is a psychopath, and their behavior is unavoidable and mostly born into them. However, there isn't much significant proof that being a psychopath is hereditary. At least, not to my knowledge, which is admittedly very limited in the psychological field.
