Even keeps readjusting the detainees video camera so it keeps recording the stop.

That cop is on a very shortlist of cops I'd have a beer with.

That guy was clearly about as intelligent as a doorknob. He accomplished nothing other than wasting tax payers dollars and when actually given a platform to voice his beliefs he was too inept to form a coherent thought. The fact that he went ahead and posted that debacle on the Internet is evidence of his brilliance.

When will these open carry idiots realize that they are causing more harm than good. You'll NEVER convince someone who is on the fence on gun ownership by walking around town with an AR strapped to your back. I'm a NRA member and a shooting enthusiast but I find it really hard to side with the guys open carrying like this. I don't want to lose one of my favorite hobbies because some people want to frick with cops and the general public. This does more harm for the sport than ANYTHING else.

I'm all about some 2nd amendment but a guy walking down the street with a rifle strapped to his back and wearing a kilt is going to raise a question or two. I'm about 5 minutes in and the cop seems to be handling it well.

Bingo. You CAN but it doesn't mean you should all the time...especially when you're wearing a kilt and rocking an AR-15

I get the constitutional deal BUT come the hell on. LEOs have to respond to shite like this because if they DON'T and someone shoots a place up then the department gets fricked. The cop didn't come looking for a fight. He was doing his job be responding to a call. This cop handles it perfectly. If you're raising awareness for an issue then that's cool, just say what you're up to.

I'm pretty much every liberals nutjob uncle on the question of the second amendment. But these people walking around with nothing other on their mind than making people shite bricks are definitely not helping the cause.

Cops are dicks, but unfortunately, that's the dick thats going to have to deal with you if you're "That guy" so don't cry about it. And don't expect us to see your YouTube video and come to your aid when you basically provoked it all without cause. I get the reasoning. And technically, yeah, but stop it so we don't all look like what these idiots want to believe we are please.

Your title for your OP sucks arse. There was no probable cause to stop Gonzales. You say, in a squeaky voice, "but, but, he was carrying and assault rifle." Still, it is legal, Texas LEO's can not force a person walking to ID themselves and Gonzales did nothing wrong. There's probably 10,000 criminals in a 5 mile radius of that area that have illegal firearms, but they'll run from the police or shoot at you.

That cop was as cool as you're going to find. I really think concealed carry is a better option for numerous reasons, but I don't think open carry should be illegal. That said, the guy in the video wanted a confrontation, and YouTube is full of guys doing the same thing. I think this type of behavior hurts our cause.

Is it not a requirement to carry ID if you're carrying a gun? It should be.

If Texas allowed open carry of handguns there wouldn't be so many of these videos on YouTube.
