Texas college students plan to protest 'campus carry' gun law

news.vice.com...ildos

And here we go....

A new law that allows people to carry concealed handguns into most buildings on public college campuses takes effect today in Texas, and students are planning to protest by bringing some equally inappropriate — but much less lethal — objects into their classrooms: dildos.

This is a very creative way to protest.

Jin's group is organizing a demonstration called "Campus Dildo Carry" on August 24, the first day of fall semester classes at the state's flagship public university, that she says will involve students carrying "a few thousand non-phallic sex toys to accurately reflect the 'concealed carry' aspect of this law, [and] about 500 very dick-like toys too."

While I am glad the college kids are protesting, I do not think they get the concept of "concealed carry". I do not think concealed means what they think it means.

Jin says the protesters will strap dildos to the outside of their backpacks and stroll into class "like nothing is different." "It's to help people visualize how ridiculous it would look if everybody in our community were 'carrying' [a gun]," Jin said. "Hopefully the dildos will churn up the sense of shock and discomfort that people should feel about guns being everywhere."

If they were protesting open carry then yeah strapping them on backpacks in the open would work.

Why does this kid think people should feel the sense of shock and discomfort about guns? In Texas especially?

Seems kind of appropriate for a generation of pussies.

The next mass shooting story reads, a dozen students were gunned down today after they tried to disarm an active shooter with... dildos.

Wow. Did they think this up all by their little ol' selves?

Gives new meaning to the word packing huh??

A dildo protest?
They should hook up with "slut walk"!

After that they can all participate in a Fart-In protest like the democrats held at the DNC.

Is this what protesting has degraded to?

What Clint Eastwood said popped into my mind immediately and I was going to post but you said what I was thinking perfectly.

So they'll all be 'packing'.

Insert something about Freud and penis envy here.

I think they just wanted to have "show and tell" day at school. Honestly people walking around Austin, planning to walk around with their sex-toys in hand, would hardly be surprising.

"Keep Austin Weird".


I'm planning a counter-counter demonstration. I'm calling it:

"Rock Out, with Your Glock Out."

Use your imagination.

If only the founding fathers had fought British rule with dildos, we would have won our independence even sooner.

Also, could you imagine the soldiers storming the beach of Normandy armed only with dildos? I guess we weren't pussies back then.

Maybe they were inspired by Melissa Harris-Perry's tampon earrings?

I think the best counter would be for people to walk around with tubes of lube and offer to help them out.

Wow, this reminds me of Gene Hackman and the duck of death in the unforgiven.

"Hopefully the dildos will churn up the sense of shock and discomfort"

My guess is that no one is going to care that people have dildos on a college campus.

Take those dildos down to the local church and you might have something there Jin. Which out for people with guns though; you might piss them off.

If we are lucky, some crazy feminist will have missed the memo and accuse someone of sexually harassing her.

that would be funny.

Wait, isn't this going to traumatize some other group?
I mean, the guns are concealed right? And the "toys" are going to be out in the open.

Somebody dang well better create a "safe" place, for those upset by this display!

Great slogan for them: "HANDS UP...DON'T MASTURBATE!"

Sorry... I couldn't help but immediately picture this: "I'm warning you, stand back! I have a d***o and I know how to use it!"

Then of course there's the question of if they decide to Conceal Carry... I won't speculate on the possibly intimate details.

Btw, I'll really be disappointed if I get my hand slapped on this one... I've tried to be discreet in how I posted.

Seriously, though, I agree about someone in the state of Texas thinking that the visibility of the two is analogous. The unease of students and faculty at seeing a mysterious box with a digital timer in the process of a countdown sitting under a student's desk is much more understandable, imo.
