Topic
I am doing this little survey to find out which type have the highest level of violence.
Just vote for the personality of the most violence person you know.
You don't have to agree that violence is connected to MBTI to vote.
If you can't figure the personality of the most violence person, just pick the second most violence.
This person must be real.
Fictional characters in movie, plays, and etc won't count.

Discussion:
Tell us about this violence person.
How do you encounter this person?
Why you pick this person as the most violence person that you know?
Do you think MBTI can predict level of violence? why or why not?
After 10 votes had been cast, tell us what you think of the result.


The most violence person that i know is my grandpa, who is a ESFJ.
He is so egoistic and emotional that if someone insults him in anyway, my grandpa will go berserk. In his younger days, my grandpa will go all physical. Now, he just gets all red in the face and give his opponent a verbal lashing.

I think my dad was an xsFJ. I can't give you more then that. He was messed up in the head. Thus I didn't vote in the poll. ._.

Edit: Oh wow. I didn't even read the last paragraph of yours until after I posted. Odd occurance...

[Zeoshock]

ISTP. He usually gets physical when playfully (at least, that's what he calls it) horsing around. =\

[The Fury]

Most of the people I know are pretty passive, while I have met a few violent people the encounter was too quick to type them. That's why I voted for myself as the most violent person I know. Though I'm usually an easy going person I've been in a few fights and I even broke somebody's nose once.

I really, really don't think that rather some one is extraverted intuitive feeling and judging OR whatever! Can determine rather or not some one is more violent. If you notice a pattern, it will be merely a coincidence, not factual data saying that "Hmm, it appears that ESTJs are more violent than the rest of the population because a few people on this forum website told me about some people that their friends of that type are more violent than the average person... Yes, I think I'm getting some where!"

Seriously.

I've found ESTX types to often display simple sociopathic behavior with little self-control, but it's often predictable and transparent, which I find less threatening.

INTJs and INTPs, however, seem to be much more in touch with their dark sides and smart enough to cover their asses.

So while I'd say the EST types are more "violent", I'd definitely put INTJs and INTPs down as more dangerous.

Note: I am not saying that people of these types are always violent or dangerous, merely that the people of notable violence I've met were of these types.

Of the two most violent people I know, one I think to be an ISTJ, though he has been very difficult to type. The other is very likely ISTJ.

The first has anxiety attacks and exhibits what I believe to be Fi, though he isn't in control of it at all. He is quick to take offense, never admits to being wrong, punches things when they don't work, and can be manipulative.

The second has a short temper and is an all-around angry person. He seethes often.

[wittykitty]

ESFJ's are dogmatic.

[Kris]

I am the most violent person I know. I don't really know my type, but when I was at my most violent I identified as an INTJ in general. However, I guess considering the nature of the outbursts, that is driven by emotion, I wasn't really acting much like an INTJ at the time..

[leeo268]

Cool, Thanks everyone for voting.
From the result I noticed that the top four personalities are all judger.
Hmmm, does this mean anything?
You guys think there are any correlation between judger and violence?

Are you talking about unstable, sputtering-rage kinds of violence, or violence which is deliberate, methodical, and purposeful? In other words, do you mean "most violent" in the emotional sense, or in the fact of getting the job done?

Can I pick myself?

[mmm7789]

I find the violent people that I have had contact with all seemed to be mentally deficient. Perhaps the violent people I met (working for a criminal attorney) were caught because of the mental deficiency, and not really so much because of the violent act. Most of them really COULD NOT grasp that what they did was wrong.

Differentiating between the threat of violence and actual violence I would say that guessing at the MBT of a violent person is not going to be accurate. I believe that the general consensus is that people who are frequently violent suffer from some form of mental instability and that renders any MBTI inaccurate. Even as applied by someone who knows the test inside out.

That being said I would suggest that violence needs to quantified in a contextual manner. If threatened I can be an extremely violent person. However the threat has to be real and immediate. The projection of violence by an individual for no apparent or logical reason leads me back to the above thought line. So in summary I have voted for myself and I hope provided the necessary reasoning behind my vote.

I am an ENFP, and I can be extremely violent and angry sometimes. Either it is when people argue and make fun of my moral convictions or if someone is deliberately trying to stop me from achieving something that I worked very hard for.

My dad hasn't taken a test but I think he is an ENTP and he is very angry and violent as well.

[Hatsumomo1]

I believe he was an INTP...or at least he gave off that INTP vibe. He was my friend's ex. He would throw rocks at her window, push her down on the side walk, and he even punched her in the eye on the campus parking lot the other year. The guy is nuts. And the scary thing about him was that he was REALLY smart, so I've heard.

Why not? I did. Works for me. I despise all kinds of cruelty and disrespect, so a knuckle sandwich or the business end of a boot usually fixes those wagons.

And when they're all pissing around and flapping their arms and shrieking "Violence doesn't solve anything!" you just lay a no-nonsense INTJ Look on 'em all and say "Is that so?"
