Not gun related, but:

Sec. 165.002. RIGHT TO BREAST-FEED. A mother is entitled to breast-feed her baby in any location in which the mother is authorized to be.

Added by Acts 1995, 74th Leg., ch. 600, Sec. 1, eff. Aug. 28, 1995.
It's kinda related. I think his point was that although I might win the right to carry an empty holster in court, what sane person would take that to court?
Once you are told to leave you are no longer authorized to be there.

Thanks! This is exactly what I was trying to determine. So, I lied about my relationship to you, but here's what I just emailed to the vice principal. I also copied the principal...

Hey, [vice principal].

Despite our difference in ideology concerning firearm sensitivities, I did enjoy meeting you today.

I was definitely caught off guard since I've never dealt with this particular issue, so I sought information from a law enforcement officer friend to be on the safe side. I copied his response below for your reference and utilization in the future.

In light of this information, in the future I will either remove the holster along with my weapon, or conceal the holster while on premises.

Take care,
[Ambassador] ([daughter] Dad)

Just remember that I'm not an attorney. If I was half as smart as they are I would have picked a profession with better pay. If you want true legal advice, ask a lawyer. My understanding is schools reserve the right to ask any visitor to leave for any reason.
