I'm not sure that this is an example of perception but then again

One issue that has emerged from the always-biased, political hearings for
Sotomayor is the contention that a judge's decision can be/or at least should

The law makes some pretty outrageous assumptions in this regard. When

Pinker does NOT seem to be propounding a genetic basis for violence.
On the other hand, there's a lot of speculation there.
In particular, using modern hunter-gatherer societies as a proxy for
