Why wouldn't we want more kids to carry guns to school to protect themselves? Shouldn't kids be allowed to protect themselves?

We don't want any kids to have to carry guns, but unfortunately our current system has made some children vulnerable. Increasingly, weapons are being used in the midst of our nation's epidemic of gun violence, making the situation too risky for kids to be responsible for their own safety. Additionally, allowing kids to carry guns would be against most school policies, and in many states it is against the law for minors to possess firearms. As a society, we must keep our children safe, and that involves providing resources and legislation that focus on gun control rather than weapons in school.
