Texas campus in uproar after protesters hold signs declaring 'women are property' on quad after Trump victory [View all]

Source: Independent

Hours before Vice President Kamala Harris delivered her concession speech, two Christian protestors caused disruption on a Texas university campus with signs that branded women “property” and used homophobic slurs.

The incident at Texas State University at San Marcos united students on both sides of the political aisle in anger as the men paraded around for an hour before being escorted off the property.

Eva De Arment, a 19-year-old sophomore, was in the university’s English building waiting for class to start when she saw Snapchat images of the signs, including one that listed “women” and “slaves” alongside cars as “property.”

Horrified, she rushed to the building’s office, asked for a sharpie, grabbed a flyer on the table and wrote: “There is still love in the world! LOVE THY NEIGHBORS.”
