For the life of me I cannot understand those people who have gun decals of all the firearms they supposedly own, on the window of their car. WHY?

I have, and do. Hidden from sight, locked doors (which, last time I looked, is what the law requires).
Yes. And I always have. I usually don't leave anything inside my truck, so it appears empty and less of a temptation for thieves. My pistol is out of sight, so there's nothing to be seen inside worth stealing.
I legally keep a handgun in my center console all the times. When home the car is kept in a locked garage. When I am out, the moment the doors are shut i manually press the lock button on the door handle. No exceptions, even if I am just going to be out of the car for one minute. The doors even lock automatically when driving, so effectively the car is locked 100% of the time.
I will leave my travel gun locked in the car when I can't take it with me.
Doors locked and nothing of value in sight.
No decals or bumper tickers on my cars, nothing visible in the passenger comprartment.
As an old soldier I know the value of camouflage. And, as we used to say in the Army, NNTK-No Need To Know.
I put a little professional mental health counselor sticker on my rear window.
We have fifty states, each of which has its own laws. And, within each state, there may be county and/or municipal laws that are more strict than the state law. As has been commented many times before, in other discussions, there is no good substitute for knowing the laws of the jurisdiction in which you are operating.
