You wouldn't call driving around with two rifles in your rear window with a Stars and Bars sticker on the window -- circling through the Houston hood -- suspicious?

While suspicious, I don't think it rises to the level of walking on the streets of houston with an AR slung around your shoulder. To me, it comes down to "could their be a rational explanation for why this person is carrying this firearm?" If yes, I see no further need to question them. If no, I am fine with the questioning.

Again, I am not advocating that this is what the letter of the law is or what the letter of the law should be. Just that in an ideal world, I wouldn't have a problem with cops stopping people and questioning them when they are carrying guns when it doesn't make much sense to do so or in a way that doesn't make much sense.
