Gun law targeted in sexy protest
HUNDREDS of University of Texas students waved sex toys at a campus rally during the first day of classes, protesting a new law that allows concealed handguns in college classrooms, buildings and dorms.
Organisers said the sex toys were used to mock what they consider an absurd notion that guns should be allowed in academic settings.
The new state law took effect on August 1.
Organisers said they distributed more than 4500 free sex toys.
Texas has allowed concealed carry since 1995 but had kept college campuses gunfree until this year.
