There's currently one going on
in Michigan.
I don't think it will make drivers much more polite, though. First, because they know you aren't actually going to shoot them just because they passed you in an unsafe manner. ( I'm thinking about the every day problems we face as cyclists, not the dart gun people most of us will never run into. ) And second, I don't think most drivers even realize how stupid and dangerous much of their behavior is in the first place. Still, part of me wants to see it happen in areas where there's more antagonism between drivers and cyclists, and hopes I'm wrong.
