I certainly don't think Americans invented violence, but you sure love the phrase "war on..."
Also, your murder rate is way higher than any other first world nation, so there is that.
We particularly enjoy using the phrase when the thing being referred to is absolutely not a war..and, conversely, we like to call wars anything but "war"...so, I can understand the confusion.
OFC it;s higher. USA#1....at everything, somehow...slackers.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
