NRA Sticker Doesn't Justify Search
From the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals (Oct. 18, 2002) deciding an NRA sticker on a pickup-truck is not enough to justify a search of the truck for a gun.
"Indeed, if the presence of an NRA sticker and camouflage gear in a vehicle could be used by an officer to conclude he was in danger, half the pickups in the state of Texas would be subject to a vehicle search."
The case is Estep vs. Dallas County. You can read the full opinion here.
