Why wouldn't we want more kids to carry guns to school to protect themselves? Shouldn't kids be allowed to protect themselves?
<|assistant|>
We would not want more kids to carry guns to school because school should be a safe, comfortable environment where kids can learn and grow, not a potentially hostile environment where the threat of gun violence is prevalent. While it is understandable to want to feel safe, the safety risks associated with students carrying guns outweigh the potential benefits. It is for this reason that policies regarding student gun possession should be regulated.
