Don't let guns in schools

I am a Boy Scout, and I'm writing to say that letting guns into the schools of Utah is just dumb. If guns are allowed at school, gang members will have a bloodbath in our school halls. I'm a Republican and firm believer in the right to carry guns, but I think there are times and places to carry them. I love to hunt, but I don't carry around a 30-06 for defense.
