The Prophet Joseph Smith taught,

“Here is one principle which is eternal; it is the duty of all men to protect their lives and the lives of the household, whenever necessity requires, and no power has a right to forbid it, should the last extreme arrive.” (Joseph Smith, HC 6:605.)

It's the word of God.
People try to weasel out of it. And make excuses for their socialist government. Or babble about how it's taken out of context.

But it's there and simple enough for any of us to understand.

What's really disappointing is the anti gun sentiment prevalent in "conservative" Utah legislators/governor

IMO, if the FedGov wanted LDS people to give up their guns they could force the LDS Church First Presidency to tell members to give up their guns, under threat of FedGov actions that would interfere with missionary and building programs. I doubt any state government has the clout to do that.

States have passed constitutional carry. Arizona just did so recently actually. This is an easy issue.
