An article on KYW1060.com is reporting that students at at least nine Pennyslvania college campuses are going to be wearing empty holsters this week to classes, in order to protest concealed weapons bans at schools.

Jeremy Clark of Bethlehem, and a Villanova Law School student finishing up his second year, is one of about ten Villanova students taking part in the “Empty Holster Protest.”

Clark explains that there are two reasons he is supporting the protest: “First, is to raise awareness and dispel a lot of myths about concealed carry and to show people that concelead carry actually helps reduce crime. The second goal is to get states and school administrators to change their policies.” Clark, however, doesn’t have much hope that Villanova will change its no-concealed weapons policy in the near future.
