Absolutely........................................ ............................until you talk to those strangers sincerely and one-on- one.
I often spark up a convo. anywhere and everywhere. People first have their guards way up until you introduce yourself to them and something such as being in line at the grocery store and what the heck is taking so long.

Even being a stranger and YOU open up- they eventually will. I do this with my Son to teach him. After that , they seem to want to talk as much as I do.

It's all about a big guard and perhaps fear.
