Brett Poulos


Brett Poulos was involved in a dispute over First Amendment to [the United States Constitution|First Amendment] rights. The Associated Press reported in May 2008 that he and the Foundation for [Individual Rights in Education] claim Tarrant County College "violated some students' constitutional rights by not allowing them to wear empty holsters and limiting their speech to a concrete platform, as part of a nationwide protest over campuses' ban on concealed weapons.
Poulos formerly served as a national media liaison, Southwest Regional Director, and on the Board of Directors for Students for Concealed [Carry on Campus] and worked to align the plaintiffs with the Foundation for [Individual Rights in Education] so they could overturn TCC's ruling. As of October 15th 2010, TCC lost the battle and was ordered to pay $240,000 in legal fees.
