A student who attends the University of South Alabama was spotted carrying an empty gun holster on campus. D.J. Parten, president of Students for Concealed Carry at the school, was involved in a protest, while promoting a new documentary.

According to Campus Reform, the police were called on Parten and Tews and they showed up to confront the students.

According to the university’s website, “all weapons are prohibited in University housing buildings, parking lots and on University property.”

“This includes, but is not limited to, bullets, ball bearing bullets, bullet balls, pellets, firearms, guns, knives, paintball guns, air guns, hunting bows, archery bows, swords, martial arts weapons and replicas of such weapons. Toy water guns are prohibited,” the website states. It doesn’t appear that holsters are banned.

The documentary the two were promoting, “Can We Take a Joke?” according to TheBlaze.
