Natasha is tied to a chair while being interrogated during her first appearance, and Clint wakes up restrained as a precaution after he's freed from the mind control.

Yes! Yes there is! I don't know why people are saying there isn't. Captain America slices off a Chitauri soldier's arm along with its gun in the fight scene after he gives the police officers orders.

Not sure why people said no. Hulk pops a Chitauri soldier's head like a water balloon before he starts getting pelted by a squadron of Chitauri war chariots near the end of the movie.

When the Hulk is chasing Black Widow things get quiet and then the Hulk roars loudly. It can be rather startling without warning.

It is worth noting that some of it is drowned out by the other sounds in the scene, but it's still pretty gross.

He doesn't say he will kill himself, but he does say that he has tried to before, so I think that may be worth mentioning.

There is an indirect mention of Nazis in one scene, where a crowd of people in Germany kneels to the main villain. An old man refuses to, and tells the villain "There will always be people like you". Other than this, no.
