No you're not. Japan is famously not a 'well armed society', but does have a reputation for politeness. This is directly at variance with your evidence-free claim.

I did not claim a polite society can't exist without weapons.

I could equally ask why any of many heavily armed societies are not oases of peace and tranquility. The USA should be the most polite nation on earth, by your metric. It obviously isn't, though.
