In all the cases I have seen here, and all the cases I know of IRL, the only times they managed to actually "get" the carrier was when he was doing something, besides just carrying, that they (rightly or wrongly) claimed caused "alarm."
I would argue that wearing a shirt that informs folks of my carry status could not possibly warrant a reasonable person to become alarmed and, therefore, should not even justify a stop, let alone arrest or conviction. However, I have seen cases about which I'd say the same thing result in convictions--or at least being run through the ringer.
I would specifically warn against moving your gun from one place to another in your vehicle, pointing fingers at folks while armed, or slinging an AR on your back in addition to carrying your OC handgun while playing chess in a park with a homeless man. All of those will result in convictions, which may or may not stand on review.
