"Campus (Dildo) Carry" day is on track at the University of Texas and students who pack sex toys to protest a new law that expands the right to carry guns on campus will not be punished, university officials said on Tuesday.
The protest planned for the start of classes next year is aimed at showing what organizers said is the folly of penalizing people up to $500 under Texas law for violating obscenity rules for having a sex toy on campus while making it legal for a concealed handgun license holder to bring a pistol into the classroom.
Nearly 8,000 people have signed up to strap sex toys to their backpacks on Aug. 24, 2016, at the university's flagship campus in Austin on the first day of the fall semester.
