College cops are worse than mall cops.

I hope they end up paying him large sums of money.

Anyone advising this young man would do him a favor to tell him to skip student legal services, the ACLU and OCLU, and go directly to a private civil rights attorney.
An empty holster—incredible. Kampus Kop Komedy.

The university gets to define what constitutes ‘disorderly conduct’ and they can and will charge him with it, and punish him within the university (not criminal) code.

“The Constitution of the United States does not stop at the door of Ohio University or any other university,” Farmer said. “Students have constitutional rights that must be protected as all other American citizens’ rights are protected.”

Not that easy, this is a public tax payer funded institution.

While the university certainly has rules and regulations...
I doubt the university is allowed (by law) to publish a separate criminal code that goes beyond the application of state law....

Not to mention the intentional violation of federal civil rights law and someone's Constitutional rights...

Pass the popcorn.... this will be a good one to watch!

That d*** holster could have gone berserk and caused a real tragedy. I hope they put that holster behind bars for a long time.

He doesnt need the ACLU...

Any good litigator will have a demand letter on the University President's desk by lunch on Tuesday...

...And a settlement w/ formal apology by Happy Hour next Friday.

It seems like a clear violation of the First Amendment, as well as false arrest.

A clearly visible empty holster.....and the rent-a-cops pulled their weapons on him!!!!!!????? Mr. Newbern needs to hire a good lawyer and sue the piss out of the cops, the university and the president of the university.

Every person employed in an administrative leadership slot in that university should be sued into homelessness.

The cops involved should be up on federal kidnapping charges.

It’s way past time when we the people should have started slapping the teeth out of educational administrations that put themselves outside the law or go around inventing laws to selectively enforce leftardic cultural-destructionist ideology.
