completely disagree, the guy you are talking about getting triggered for being called out for cutting line also has to consider all the others visibly armed around him that he wont make it out alive if he tries anything stupid--if everyone is armed, everyone will think hard about how to not make yourself a target...proper checks and balances are all around, thus no one will be stupid enough to try anything out of line; the pun is a bonus
This is not a polite society, its a society held in place by fear of wanton violence. Its not polite because people care about one another its because they are afraid and paranoid of being killed when going about daily life. Its essentially the structure of control you would find on a prison yard. You could make the argument that a oppressive authoritarian society is also polite society. I would rather live in a much ruder society and not have to worry about being shot grocery shopping or sitting in a movie theatre.

Why don't we see a lot of shootings at gun ranges?
When is abortion going to banned again and why should other people be responsible for funding it in any way? This should be a response to any big-gov loving nitwit who thinks guns are responsible for killing people.
Guns are responsible for killing like rape is responsible for abortion.
Do you believe gun owners are the most considerate and amiable people on the globe?
Yes must believe that or gun ranges would have the county coroner out in the parking lot 24/7.
Everyone at the gun range is armed, yet any kind of shooting is exceptionally rare.
Why aren't people shooting each other at gun ranges every time a person is inconsiderate?
No I don't think gun owners are the most considerate and amiable people on the globe, far from it. I have talked to enough gun store owners and attended enough gun shows to know that lots of men in that culture are very insecure and tend to make up for it by being rude know-it-alls . You want to meet a group of considerate humble people walk into a MMA, Wrestling or Boxing gym. Tough people, not insecure, not paranoid, no chip on their shoulder.
If the powers that be ever told people to give up their guns the lawful would comply. The criminal minded would of course keep their guns and only the thugs would have guns to rob the law abiding citizens.

Guns are responsible for killing like rape is responsible for abortion.
Your analogy is garbage. I assume you think guns are acceptable. Do you feel the same about rape?
