Yes. Yes.
Seriously though, violence is not just a human trait. It's present in just about any species I can think of, and it's especially present in all carnivores. Because if you eat meat it's kinda hard to find food if you're not violent, is the reason. It's also nice to be able to defend yourself from attackers that want to eat you.
And I've also seen a great deal of movies and books dealing with the subject of creating a human race devoid of anger and violence. It never ends well. Sometimes it ends catastrophically. What we can do is try to control our impulses and find other outlets for them. I think vidoegames and movies are a great way for that.
