Outside a prison things are different. As someone said, display of firearms in your yard can carry some very negative connotations. While those connotations may be what you're going for, it could be illegal.

No, I think your concept of "concealed means concealed" is the wise way to handle your guns. Cameras and police reports are the way to handle poor neighbors. Normally I would suggest just talking to the neighbors first, but it sounds like you're beyond that stage.
