Nah, just a contingency plan to scare em off for a few days while you find new parking. Most thugs aren't going to risk their lives for a $30 parking ticket. They see a gun and they'll leave you alone for a little bit. Don't be surprised to see your car keyed up while you're gone though.

Please stop being an advocate for concealed carry, you are doing a terrible job.

Indeed. I'm (somewhat) in favour of concealed carry, but based on observation it doesn't prevent folks from annoying other folks.

Quite. And what's to stop the 5 criminals from carrying guns as well? Pull a gun and get yourself killed in self defence. Great job, Captain America. This is why guns are a stupid thing to give to the public.

I would have said, "This is why guns are a stupid thing to give to stupid members of the public."

There are people out there who can operate a concealed weapon safely. I'm probably not one of them, so I do not own or carry a gun.

In my eyes that makes you more responsible than those who do.
