I definitely think carrying a weapon down a public street creates reasonable suspicion and hope every cop would stop every citizen and check them out. If everything checks out, they should sent on about their way.

You should probably take a good look at the Fourth Ammendment.

Except that this chills Constitutionally protected activity. Pointing a weapon at people - discharging the weapon - certainly those can constitute criminal activity, if unjustified, but bearing arms is explicitly protected in the U.S. Constitution.

This is what is wrong with America. It is perfectly legal to open carry in Texas. Just carrying the rifle is not probable cause, that has been decided by the Supreme Court. You are one of the ones that are willing to give up liberty for safety, and you deserve neither. I bet you believe cops get killed every single day in this country by some gun toting redneck maniac. It just doesn't happen that way. You very rarely hear about a cop being gun down during duty, and when it does happen there is a three day memorial and a huge parade. When cops kill some unarmed suspect nobody gives a shite. Welcome to the police state.

Unless some cop is doing it, right? We can trust them.
