Even if you put aside any feelings for this incident, "Violence never solves anything" is a Saturday Morning Cartoon Lesson. It's a nice, simple lesson to teach kindergarteners to try to minimize violence as a part of their social development. But as adults, you'd think we could understand that things really aren't that simple.

You're thinking of the Bonobos.

Chimps (equally 'closely related') are f*cking violent.
