Don't be such a drama queen.
That divide exists everywhere but such extremes are only observed in the land of freedom. Nothing to worry about.

police in the US should have a 150,000$ salary with the current state of things. 170+ million armed people. now how many of these people are mentally ill? drug addicts? niggers? plain psychos?
here in russia only 4 million own guns and all of them are subject to strict licensing. the licensing itself prevents the other 65 million that would get them if there was no licensing (50% of population). how many psychos are there of those 4 million? probably way less. it's so simple but yet you choose to ignore public safety over muh freedom.

when there is no open conflict, there is psychological warfare, or psychoterror.
let's examine two countries: america and china.
america has virtually zero gun control, if someone wants to get a gun they WILL and you can't do shit about it. gun control doesn't work in america, it's that simple. ammunition is unregulated, the manufacture of firearms by individuals is permitted, FFLs cost only 500$ per years, critical gun parts are unregulated. the ATF is inherently a flawed organization (from the standpoint of gun control) because only the lower/frame is legally the firearm allowing you to easily 3d print it and buy everything else in online shops.
america also has the freedom of speech that allows the spread of a WIDE variety of wonderful ideas that cannot be banned unless they are direct, specific threats which is one of the exemptions of the first amendment.
now let's look a china. zero guns, strict gun control. heavily protected sovereign internet. severe language barrier.
who do you think is more vulnerable to psychoterror? do you really think a state would NOT do this just to discredit their enemy? would china induce mass shootings in the US? how many of them were already induced by the CCP? Russia?
not even touching on the topic of nonexistent democracy in US
