Isn't it pretty obvious to even the most fervent supporter of gun control that if someone wants to kill a person or persons on a university campus a ban on weapons is not going to stop them? And, although it's no bet that anyone legally carrying a gun can successfully be a hero if a nut, terrorist or a spurned boyfriend goes crazy, isn't that chance still better than the victims of the potshot killings that occurred at Virginia Tech?

Interesting article. But, I believe it is already legal to carry a firearm in public schools in Utah. Haven't done any research on this particular bill but maybe it applies to private schools. If I remember correctly from reading a published research article last year by Dave Kopel stated that Utah allows carry on school campuses and hasn't had a single incident.
