Increased penality doesn't greatly affect offence rate. Reducing poverty and heavy metal pollution goes much further toward preventing violence and aggression.

Check youtube for "fainting goats" to see people acting like jerks.

The video I just watched said this 'tic' can be induced even by the
excitement of getting fed. It is pretty interesting to see such a
large organism that seems like it would be totally wiped out in the
wild.

And the concern exists already with people fighting chickens, dogs,
and those Betta fish... so this doesn't seem like it would encourage
that sort of mental pattern. If you are concerned with such, we need
to think of human-centric solutions (idk, embryo genetic testing for
aggression genes or something, or better education for the young and
more strict laws for dealing with non-infant offenders).
