Yes, it has become that bad in the US. I'm in California, so a bit less of the gun-toting mentality here, but I'm still on my guard any time I'm in public - or while in my apartment! Last summer we had 3 gang-related shootings (deaths) within 2 blocks of where I live. I heard the shootings, screaming, etc.

The gun situation is an enormous stress for Americans - and STILL there are so many who are eager to carry guns, own rifles, etc. The situation is not good.
