First of all this mathemetical ridiculousness is inherently illogical because nobodys ever only met 400 Japenese people, all of which are murderers. People are people, and either way its correlating how someone ACTS with how they LOOK, two things COMPLETELY unrelated. Human logic can go beyond that of a mere calculator, and factor in critical thinking, hence making your argument illogical.

What was that psychologist that proposed that personality was based on appearance? It was a theory about 100-150 yrs ago, part of it stated that fat people are always jovial...its absurd, almost as absurd as this argument.
