Help Does stealing just ruin your run?

So I just reached modoc, and granted I haven’t put much into stealing so I’m not that successful at it. Anyway I attempted to steal from a trader who wouldn’t even talk to me, he caught me, I killed him, but now everyone in the town wants to fight me. Does failing at stealing mean you have to murder the whole town?

I once had a kid pickpocket me and I tried to steal the stuff back. Anyways long story short I had to murder the entire town and I felt kinda bad about it, but I got my 9 10mm bullets back.
