That's a bit strong. There are places in the world (and in our own society a century or two ago) where witnessing dead bodies and violent death isn't uncommon. I doubt everyone in those societies is traumatized or a sociopath.
We live in remarkably safe and placid times. So yeah, when we do witness death or violence it tends to shake us a lot more than it did our great-grandparents. But not everyone reacts that way.
