Only a handful of gun-rights advocates and those supporting Texas’ new, less restrictive campus-carry law showed up near the University of Texas campus here on Saturday for a highly publicized but divisive demonstration and mock shooting in favor of ending gun-free zones. A few demonstrators carried legal AK-47 and AR-15 rifles before the first stage of the gathering, a walk that began at a parking garage just west of the 51,000-student campus. They were outnumbered by throngs of reporters, photographers and television cameras, and later by counter-demonstrators. Organizers of what was billed as the Life and Liberty Walk to End Gun Free Zones had agreed not to go onto campus grounds after university officials warned them they would be trespassing.
