Too late. The bums on the freeway intersections have claimed all the good spots already. :rolll

I'm kind of surprised a kinder, gentler device hasn't been marketed here - a mist of pepper spray would seem to be an appropriately non-lethal way to deal with this nuisance.

Not quite. Its not that big a deal. I don't know why people are going on about it.

If this type of aggressive "soft robbery" was going on in a Texas city, at what point would a driver first be legally allowed to display a weapon and ultimately when would shooting be justified?

What about use of pepper spray?

What do you mean IF? They used to do this all the time in Houston.
It hasn't happened to me in a while as I don't live in town any more. The last time I was in early 20s and will admit to shouting "touch my car and I'll beat your :bigear: " more than once. I wouldn't recommend that though.
