So can you describe when the long firearms are carried NOT in a manner calculated to cause alarm? It seems you are declaring OC of long firearms are not legal in Texas, which is simply not true.
Can you describe a time that a mass of people with ARS in hand marching up and down a busy intersection harassing people and going into a fast food restaurant with their AR at low ready is NOT intended to cause alarm?

I'm not saying that OC of long guns is illegal. I'm saying these idiots are breaking the law. I support open carry. I do NOT support the OCT idiots in the slightest.

Because they're not wearing uniforms?
No, because they are carrying in a manner calculated to cause alarm. That's the verbiage of the law. They claim they are not trying to cause alarm, but that is in fact all they are doing.

Edited to correct spelling error and clarify my point.

The problem is that the OCT people are breaking the law. Despite their claims to the contrary, their open carry demonstrations are specifically conducted in a manner calculated to cause alarm, which makes their open carry demonstrations a violation of the law. Their entire point is to get the populace railed up and make the news when those frightened citizens call the police and the media. It absolutely is hurting the cause more than helping.
