These sound like the same people who pushed Communism all over Latin America.
My first though is why would National Cash Register care?
Control the border and you control the guns.
Another group of idiots.
Gee you mean if there were no U.S. guns in Mexico,( you gotta wonder where the full autos, grenades, etc. come from) there would be no Cartels, drug dealers or criminals? Sorry but my experience with the Catholic Church has been that they are pro Hispanic, legal or otherwise immigration to the U.S. because the Hispanics will get more money here, tend to be Catholic, have large families and will therefore add to the church in both numbers and cash.
A Catholic publication? About as catholic as the Kennedies, Pelosi, Biden et al.
They don't speak for the Church, at all. They might speak for the far-left wing of the Democrat party, however.
The National Catholic Reporter (aka, The Fishwrap) is not a truly Catholic publication. It is a dissident, heterodox publication published and written by people who call themselves Caholics, but who do not believe in the teachings of the Catholic Church.
Marxist Jesuits are the enemy
Let’s get this straight -
Mexican culture is dominated by the Catholic Church and the Catholic Church is blaming guns made in the U.S. that Mexicans buy, for the “gun violence”?????
I’d tell the Catholic Church to remove the big tree from its eye. Whatever the Catholic Church is preaching in Mexico, about “gun violence” it’s no working. So, instead of looking at how its doing its own job, in Mexico,they want to blame folks outside of Mexico for what Mexicans, overwhelmingly Catholic, are doing, by choice apparently.
Hypocrites.
Oy
No, the Catholic Church, the catechism, sees huge problems getting involved in politics. It’s stance on illegal immigration is logical and centers around not just abiding by the law but also not depleting resources, furthering many problems as well as those for future legal immigrants
The US bishops (USCCB) radically push for illegals to have amnesty. This is led by bishops with English as a second language. Jose Gomez is a citizen of the US but as an immigrant himself is not allowed to influence government. Who is going to stop him?
Cardinal Dolan has made headlines siding w Obama on guns. He is supposed to by law of the church, stay out of politics
And the catechism certainly allows provides guidance for self defense and defense of others. We wouldn’t have Catholics thriving in the military if not
Two:
The national catholic reporter is a left wing publication re tending by what calls itself - to be a catholic paper It is not

The NCR IS NOT A CATHOLIC PUBLICATION. It was stripped of that decades ago by the Bishop of Kansas City. That’s a fact.http://www.greenspun.com/bboard/q-and-a-fetch-msg.tcl?msg_id=00Cofv
This was reaffirmed just last year: https://www.catholicculture.org/news/headlines/index.cfm?storyid=16911
Mexico's Gun Supply and the 90 Percent MythAs we discussed in a previous analysis, the 90 percent number was derived from a June 2009 U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO) report to Congress on U.S. efforts to combat arms trafficking to Mexico (see external link).
According to the GAO report, some 30,000 firearms were seized from criminals by Mexican authorities in 2008. Of these 30,000 firearms, information pertaining to 7,200 of them (24 percent) was submitted to the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) for tracing. Of these 7,200 guns, only about 4,000 could be traced by the ATF, and of these 4,000, some 3,480 (87 percent) were shown to have come from the United States. Mexico's Gun Supply and the 90 Percent Myth
This means that the 87 percent figure relates to the number of weapons submitted by the Mexican government to the ATF that could be successfully traced and not from the total number of weapons seized by Mexican authorities or even from the total number of weapons submitted to the ATF for tracing. In fact, the 3,480 guns positively traced to the United States equals less than 12 percent of the total arms seized in Mexico in 2008 and less than 48 percent of all those submitted by the Mexican government to the ATF for tracing. This means that almost 90 percent of the guns seized in Mexico in 2008 were not traced back to the United States.
Oops! We forgot to put in place any method of tracking these guns until they end up at the scene of dead people. Our bad!
I hate writers who assume we are as stupid and gullible as they are.
I’ve yet to see a gun on its own cross the border, hunt down a human target, load it self, on its own aim, fire, and kill the human. Guns are not to blame for the violence.
National Catholic Reporter (NCR) continues to blame the U.S. for gun violence in Mexico, ..............
Wait till we start exporting spoons to Mexico.
Please don’t anyone think the NCR is Catholic. The people who own and staff it flaunt the name of “Catholic” but have no attachment to any Catholic or any other Christian dogma/doctrine/ethics/morals. Also do not confuse the National Catholic(sic) Reporter with the National Catholic Register which is a pretty solid publication.
NCR is a Soros funded pretend Catholic org.
IT IS NOT CATHOLIC!!!
