I'm not sure a gun would have helped much here. Would he really have had time to draw? Let alone you're usually carrying things when you head from your house to your car, so full hands would also not help drawing a gun. Although you could throw an orange at the gangstas, right? :D

Personally, I park in my garage. I get into my car with my wife and kids BEFORE I open the overhead garage door. I close it before I get out of my car when I get home too. Some call it healthy paranoia, some call it being smart. Either way, it avoids such situation and also keeps your car nice and safe overnight. I live in a really nice community and we still have cars in driveways broken into occasionally. My neighbor down the street continues to do it even after their car was broken into last christmas! *shakes head*

Also, when you leave, go away slow enough to ensure your garage door is closed and nobody sneaks inside. Otherwise you might come home to a terrifying surprise...
