[QUOTE="gerhard1, post: 3041473, member: 5391"] What I have always thought is that past behavior is the best indication of future behavior. It is rare for someone who is an easy-going person to become a violent person out of the blue. Short of a major outside occurrence, such as an extreme provocation, if you are of a generally mild temperament, that is how you will remain. On the other hand, a person with a genuinely nasty personality, will be the type the law-enforcement people will be involved with. An example might be family homicide. Generally the police will have been called to the same couple numerous times in the past to deal with DV and the pattern is that the violence tends to escalate over time. The final event is spousal homicide. OTOH, couples who get on well with each other rarely receive police attention and they almost never murder each other. Look at their past behavior to predict future patterns. [/QUOTE]
