Terrence, we live in by far the most violent "civilized" society in the world.

We also live in the most economically advanced society in the world. We also live in the most educationally advanced society in the world. We also live in the freest society in the world. We also live in the country which more people want to immigrate to than any other country in the world.

If you want to blame our gun laws for our being violent, credit the philosophy behind them (that individuals, not government, know what is best for the people) with the other benefits of our society.
