Who said that ? This is complex debate and tragically I don't have time to debate today on this.

What about the racial crime gap in the UK and France? Or South Africa... Do black people suffer from lead poisoning worldwide?

Haven't looked into that data yet. I'm not suggesting it could cause all, or even most of the variance. I'm implying it's causal for some of it, the effects are well-noted.

The effects of heavy metal poisoning on the psyche are well studied indeed. What I find questionable is the use of that argument in explaining the racial crime gap, even in part, as it implies that black people are more prone to exposure than other groups.

Some areas are lead ridden while others aren't. An All Lead/Mostly Lead hypothesis is untenable to me.

Of course it's untenable. It would explain a good amount though, 40 percent increase in arrests just for what occurs in the womb, ignoring any other lead effects after birth? Hmm

I don't know how much lead would be needed after birth in order to become a murderer. Lead levels for African Americans has still been free falling, albeit no lead level is safe. https://commons.m.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Lead_levels_children.png …

Black-white lead gap has dramatically narrowed. What happened to the black-white criminality gap for those cohorts?

No. I do know that crime has dropped, and I think that's mainly due to a drop in the black crime rate. However, I want to know specifically about crime rates for the black 1991-1994 cohort compared to the black 1999-2002 cohort since there's a huge lead drop there

I'll check it out later and add it to my piece.
