Sorry, but this is a wishy washy hippie myth and quite frankly bollocks. For a social species of mammals, humans are not actually particularly violent. We create societies with laws that help us control the small minority of those of us who are. If you look at a society of Common chimpanzees, you'll find that it's a lot more violent than any society of humans.
If you want an example of the kind of violence which exists in nature,
infanticide f.ex is not uncommon.
