In A Family Values State Where Public Schools do not enforce dress code that helps deter gang violence. Where Statewide School Districts do not have 24 hour onsite patrols or officers devoted to just one high school or middle school. Where gang deterrence is not a priority in the classroom because little if any gang and substance abuse deterrence is taught openly. Where State wide local law enforcement has its hands and finances tied up to properly deter the spread of gangs within public schools. Ogden should be happy that this did not occur on public school property. No neighborhood, or school is immune to gang and drug related violence.

Politicians and School Boards need to do the right thing and be proactive right now! Thank you to all of the recent Utah Attorney General related SECURE TASK FORCE improvements. Thank you to those in the legislature which tightened the gang laws in 2008. Okay School Boards and most of the communities nationwide, you need to get with the program of gang deterrence before problems like those in Modesto and Oakland California (youtube.com gangwars Oakland)spread here in full force.

Do Not Blame Law Enforcement, Blame the politicans and school districts which have done nothing and continue to do nothing.
