What do you guys think of this?

I'm of the perhaps unpopular opinion that these kinds of demonstrations do more harm to our cause than good. These guys walked into a Jack in the Box with AR-15's slung over their shoulders and probably scared the piss out of the employees/customers.
For what it's worth, I am not really one to support open carry in large urban areas like Dallas (where I live) because i think it creates unnecessary tension and alarms people who otherwise could go on about their blissfully ignorant way of thinking that nobody around them is packing.
I would like to add that I do think open carry is more than reasonable in certain situations/locations but cities with 3 million people do not fall under that category, for me.
