With all the gun violence in the US, how do you think people on the outside view Americans?

Just because it maybe what you see on the news everyday doesn't mean it's like that everywhere.
I'm 33 and I've never seen or known anyone that has ever been shot or killed by a act of violence. The closest thing to violent act I've seen in all my years living here in the USofA was a Mexican guy that got stabbed by another Mexican guy. Both were illegals which is a big part of the problem.
I don't know the stats or anything like that, but I'd guess the largest amount of gun violence in the US is from gangs. The problem with that IMO, is the cops haven't taken them serious enough.. That or they just lack the ability to take them on.
However just because there are high amounts of gun crimes, doesn't mean everyone in the US walks around with a six shooter and a cowboy hat.
But anyway.. what's gun violence in the US have to do with the Arabs uniting?
