I don't know what you're trying to say. That violence has been used as a solution to problems? Sure. It has. That violence has, rarely, in some cases, been a sufficient answer for a problem? Sure. You cited a few. But that's not what you started out saying. You said that violence has "solved more problems in human history than any other solution" which is ridiculous.
Oh, and I don't think hunting animals for food is the kind of "violence" we're discussing.

He was talking about hunting as an outlet for anger, so in that context I suppose he is framing violence through hunting as an outlet and hence a solution to anger.

Shipbuilding. Electronics. Masonry. Metallurgy. Flight. Medicine. If you want to see examples of "solutions" to human problems other than violence, you need only to open your eyes and look around.
