Violence report calls Americans bloody minded, says violence endures
A National Commission task force released a 300000 word study on violence on Kennedy’s anniversary. Historians Graham and Gurr say Americans are historically violent, with the 1960s the era of greatest turmoil and ongoing civil strife tied to racial tensions and university protests. They note selective memory and unresolved grievances fueling clashes, while crime rates vary by context. The US ranks high among Western democracies in strife but remains a relatively stable republic overall.
