the one prof asked due to not wanting to arouse a debate or distract other students from their work.
I'm sorry but it does not sound reasonable.Sounds like a reasonable request, and reason for it.
If I wear a shirt that opposes abortion would it be reasonable for the local feminists rights professor to suggest that I take it off because it might "arouse debate" or "distract" the other students? I'll bet she'd be happy if I wear a shirt that promotes abortion . . . ! Sound like a double standard.
If I drive a large SUV and park it in front of the classroom because I can afford gas at $4.++ per gallon will the environmentalists tree hugging professor take offense . . . ?
How about I wear a fur lined collar on my winter parka to class when its cold outside will the animal rights loving professor ask me to remove it from the classroom because it will "arouse" some debate . . . ?
I was a college student too. I can NOT even imagine one of the liberal professors asking a student to do something like this and hope to get away with it!!! My daughter will soon be entering 8th grade and is considering a "projectile" science fair project using her AR15 and handloaded bullets of different weights standardized on one weight of powder charge, do you think she will cower down to a teacher who won't allow that? If my little 13 year old girl won't back down then no college student should do it either. I'd be writing a formal letter of complaint against the professor for violating my 1st Amendment rights if I was asked to remove an empty holster. Heck I'd start to carry it every day and put my sunglasses and a spare pen in it just to **** them off!
If you guys think it is reasonable then you are cowards who are willing to give up your constitutional right to free expression. JMO
