I lived a lot of years with the brown/blond hair and blue eyes.
Still have the blue eyes , but the hair seems now close to pure white.
At 80, I still do have much of that hair though!

Just an extra task in the morning - grooming that hair. Me, I haven't had to worry about barbers or combing my hair for some years now!

But I do have to wear a hat. Sunburn on the scalp is PAINFUL!

80/20 rule applies to all people.....put 100 people in a room....80 of them are good folks....20 are jerks.....doesn't matter color of skin....sex.....religion.......find the 80.....that's who you want to be around.

Over my 33 years of civilian employment, I don't think I ever saw a percentage even approaching 20% jerks, among the thousands of employees I worked with.
Some had differing viewpoints from time to time, but were not necessarily jerks!

Herd mentality can be interesting
That guy over there is a nice guy.

The guy behind him with the red hat? Yeah, he’s a good dude.

Throw them and five other guys together and something is going to get broken.

People one on one are fine. So’s the guy at the front of the crowd with the bullhorn. It’s the idiots in the crowd that’s the problem.

Must be artificial means. More likely that blond hair and blue eyes will all but disappear. Both are recessive.
Genetics is weird though. I have brown eyes. Wife has blue. All 4 kids have blue. They all have other obvious traits of mine, so yes, they are my kids.

people are people

although, once they become a group, everything changes.
Last summers riots destroying cities across the US proved that quite nicely

Mark Twain said something to the effect of...

A group of people will commit acts an individual would never consider....or something

IMO...I think the authorities should have treated the criminals that looted and rioted during the BLM etc. protests no differently than the criminals that overran the capitol...The same resources and techniques should be employed to identify the looters etc...and they too should face charges...
