I just don't see the harm in subjecting people who want to open carry rifles in a crowded city to questioning and being asked to ID themselves. Is it an infringement on the right to bear a firearm?
How, exactly, that an infringement. He can still bear the firearm while he gets his ID out. I don't recall the second amendment saying anything about not being able to ask for an ID.

The same way requiring a background check to purchase a firearm is an infringement. There are very few absolute rights. With almost all rights there is a balance between the absolute ability to do that thing and the prohibition on being able to do that thing.
