GUN HOLSTERS NEWS
Your Resource for Everything Gun Holsters
Usually it’s the holsters with guns that cause a scene, but that’s not the case on college campuses these days.
Since the 2007 Virginia Tech massacre, second amendment rights at universities have been placed under the microscope with heated debates supporting both sides. Debates have even turned into protests with students using empty holsters to symbolize support for concealed carry on campus.
Most recently activist group Foundation for Individual Rights in Education, or FIRE, filmed a video in support of gun rights on campus. While the organization doesn’t officially say whether it’s for or against guns on campus, it firmly believes students should be able to voice opinions on either side.
“On too many college campuses, students have been prevented from and punished for attempting to form groups to advocate for gun rights, protesting campus restrictions on concealed carry, or even simply telling gun-related jokes,” said FIRE President Greg Lukianoff in a prepared statement.
“But an informed populace is essential to our democracy, and colleges and universities should be welcoming a debate on the role of guns in our society, not stifling it,” Lukianoff added.
Filmed on location at universities across the U.S., the following video showcases students who were not allowed to show support for concealed carry on campus. FIRE said they did reach out to college administrators to get the other side, but not a single one agreed to be interviewed.
What do you think about carrying on college campuses? Should it be allowed or banned? Shouldn’t they at least be allowed to have the discussion?
