Given what's considered "reasonable" search and seizure in the war on drugs, the "well regulated militia" part of the Second Amendment would seem to cover a lot. Now, the in thing among NRA types seems to be right to carry concealed weapons laws, which should lead to a lot more of the scenarios you bring up.
People get mad all the time, for a lot of silly reasons. Usually, it doesn't matter much, even if it comes to blows. Somebody's got a gun handy, though, things can take a fatal turn all too easily.
It's a public health problem, guns kill about as many people as cars do, but cars are much more useful, and we're willing to do a lot to make them safer. It's politically hopeless, though.
