How dare you insult red heads?! My paternal ancestors are from Scotland, Ireland and England and carry the red head and Neanderthal genes which are also mixed with all of Northern European people. If you are Caucasian, you have ginger genes in your DNA along with Neanderthal genes. On a basic level, you are a ginger caveman. Live with it! ヽ(ヅ)ノ

First of all, the Sun is not a phenomenon, it is the source of energy without which there would be little or no life on Earth. Red heads are not the only variety of homo sapiens who can get sunburn. I've a friend who is BLACK, he's not tan or brown, he's BLACK. He's Congo BLACK like a native of that region of the world. In a darkened room, he appears as a Cheshire Cat when he smiles because all you can see are his teeth and whites of his eyes. My friend went to Miami, Florida for some work and thought nothing of working in the sun without a shirt. He received a severe sunburn. He like many people believed that because of his Sub-Saharan African ancestry, he could not get sunburned. It was a big mistake on his part. I felt so sorry for him because he was in obvious pain and seemed to have a pink glow about him. ヽ(ヅ)ノ

Human beings need vitamin D to survive and the way most people get vitamin D is by exposing their skin to sunlight. The farther away from the equator you get, the lighter the skin of the native population especially where there is a lot of cloud cover. Light skin is an evolutionary solution for the need of vitamin D. Those with light skin can get all the vitamin D they need by exposing their hands and face to sunlight in the northern latitudes while they're dressed for cold weather. Caucasians with any hair color need to protect their skin from too much sun exposure especially in equatorial regions of the world because skin damage accumulates over a period of time and skin cancer is a real danger.
Of course you should know all this. I find your hatred of the melanin impaired to be quite bizarre and it smacks of pigmentism. You should be ashamed of yourself. ヽ(à²*_à²*)ノ

My dad had blond hair and green eyes. My mother had black hair and brown eyes. Me and my sibling have brown eyes since that's the dominant gene. My maternal Italian grandfather had brown eyes, black hair and a red beard. My father's side of the family were the Hillbillies who were the Scotch/Irish or Ulster Scots with blue and green eyes plus various shades of hair color from brown to blond to red. When I was a young man, I had brown hair, a black beard and a lighter colored mustache. If I spent a lot of time around the swimming pool, I'd wind up with blond streaks in my hair. People would ask me what I put on my hair to get the blond streaks and my answer was,"Photons". Genetics is a funny business. My older sister and husband both had brown eyes and hair. Their first born had blue eyes and blond hair. Their second son had brown eyes and black hair. I come from a kaleidoscopic family which can be very entertaining and is why I say I'm everyone's cousin. ヽ(€¢€¿€¢)ノ

First of all, the Sun is not a phenomenon, it is the source of energy without which there would be little or no life on Earth.


"Phenomenon" = "a fact or situation that is observed to exist or happen"

Red heads are not the only variety of homo sapiens who can get sunburn..


They get it about 5 times faster.

I've a friend who is BLACK, he's not tan or brown, he's BLACK. He's Congo BLACK like a native of that region of the world. In a darkened room, he appears as a Cheshire Cat when he smiles because all you can see are his teeth and whites of his eyes.

Then he is most unusual. Blacks naturally live outdoors in the sun all day. It's the reason they're black. To defend against the sun.

My beard wasn't bright red or anything but it had a slightly reddish
tint.


It must be pretty unusual, I've never seen anyone with a beard a different colour to their hair. Apart from old folk, where the going grey happens at a different rate.


You must be pretty unobservant. Every beard I've seen has had a
mixture of hair colors in it. That's why fake beards in the movies
look so bad.


Never seen a beard like that, seen plenty that are the same colour (precisely) as the top of the head. I guess yanks are weird.

My beard used to have sort of a reddish color but time took care of that.

I did the 23andMe thing out of curiosity. My mtDNA came back as M1,
which is associated with Berbers while my Y is I1, which is heavily
represented in Scandinavia. Cross a Berber with a Viking and you get one
mean son of a bitch....

M1 is an interesting one. The theory is a group migrated east out of
Africa into Asia where the M mutation started. The various M subclades
are found in India and the Far East. Except for M1. So to make the
theory work, a group had to have gotten homesick and went back to north
Africa. It's relatively rare but a large study in Scotland picked up a
small percentage and it shows up infrequently in the rest of Europe.

In one forum people were griping that 23andMe always throws in a percent
or two of Ashkenazi genes but I scored 0% on that one.

It was interesting but when you get back to haplotypes that were formed
10 or 20 thousand years ago how they wound up where they are now
involves a lot of Just So stories and the more recent assignments are
pretty vague.

23andMe claims I have about 3.5%, but I think I have more. The pickup
has a tattered bumper sticker that says 'Neanderthal and Proud' leftover
from the Earth First! days.

BTW this sounds like bull**** to me. An I-phone has not been as thick

BTW this sounds like bull**** to me. An I-phone has not been as thick
as a 9mm cartridge in a barrel for close to a decade. Now if this was
disguised as an old flip phone I might believe it but I still doubt it
would trick anyone who actually looked at it or picked it up.


Irrelevant when someone is holding it 20 feet from you.


It just gives the cops another excuse to shoot people holding a phone.


Cops here only get annoyed if you do that while driving. They seem to think people can't do two things at once. Just because they're thick as two short planks doesn't mean the rest of us are.

Consider the potential for illegal gun ownership by criminals and
the
need for more citizens to protect themselves from being
victimized by
their violent crimes. Now you have you answer from above of why the
need
to carry a gun in public.


Have you personally had a gun drawn on you at all?

Yes, several times, once by cops. Now it seems that they have
legitimate
concerns when someone pulls out a phone. Next protocol will be for
them
to only 'return fire' just like those stupid 'Rules of Engagement'
where
soldiers have to wait to be shot at before shooting at obvious
attackers.

I agree about the soldier bit being wrong "to have to wait" etc,
but
why did the cops point a gun at you, what had you done that was so bad
for them to do that?

You shouldn't assume that someone has to have done something wrong to
have this happen, but in my case...

I was in possesion of a 'stolen' car. I had been working on it with a
friend and had it parked in the driveway where I was living at the time.
These cops were complete assholes who IMO should never have been given
the authority that they had.

The car had been reported stolen by the owner who was at that time
incarcerated, and the person who 'stole' it was his brother who was
using it without his brother's permission and wanted my friend and I to
tune it up (a seal was leaking oil onto the FI points) and install a
Blaupunkt stereo as a surprise for his brother who was soon to be
released.

The cops burst into my bedroom with guns drawn as I was pulling my pants
on, and pulled them back off of me so that they could jail me while
wearing only my underwear. They took joy in telling me how close I came
to being shot and how much they like being able to shoot white boys.
While taking me to the 'shower' to hose me down they briefly made an
error and I considered taking them on because I thought they were going
to beat me, but I didn't and they didn't beat me.

Still, I know lots of cops and they are not all bad like these were, so
I still have some respect left for them. It's a tough job and I think
that they should do a better vetting and stop those with psychological
problems from joining their ranks.

Wow! what an interesting, but scary thing to happen to you.

Why I said "what had you done that was so bad" is because unless
there was a strong suspicion of someone being armed in the house, our
cops would never pull a gun on you. In fact the likelyhood of any of
the UK cops even being armed with a shooter would be unlikely.
Maybe the brother was known to be violent and armed?


Quite likely. This was South Central Los Angeles after all, and I
suspect very different from the UK.

Indeed.


And violent armed folk here are few and far between.
