Students for Concealed Carry on Campus is currently holding a nationwide protest at 300 colleges, including UT-Arlington.

Protesters are wearing empty holsters to class April 21-25.

“These empty holsters are designed to show the current state laws and campus policies leave students defenseless, with nothing but an empty holster,” Brett Poulos, a South Campus student and a national media liaison for SCCC, said in an e-mail to The Collegian.
...
The protest is planned on South Campus. TCC is allowing the group the use a free speech zone but not allowing them to wear holsters on campus.

I know it is passed April 21-25, but feel free to discuss.

I don't see what good a concealed handgun license does if you can't carry it everywhere. How is that protecting anyone?

It's BS to not allow students to wear empty holsters.
