Don't have to be a cop to feel that way. I own multiple AR's and I would not in a million years feel like I should walk down the street with one on my back. And if I did, I would hope that a police officer would question it, and I would politely show him my ID.

This. Of course, anyone who has a legitimate purpose in carrying an AR through the streets of Houston would gladly provide ID, answer some questions and be on their way in less than a minute. It's only the people who are doing it "because the can" that leads to the type of confrontation you see in the video.
