The Pope called for more gun control in the United States after the horrific mass shooting at an elementary school in Texas, and a Cardinal in Chicago agreed.

Pope Francis spoke about the shooting from St. Peter's Square at the Vatican during his weekly general audience.

"I am praying for the children and adults who were killed, and for their families. It is time to say enough to the indiscriminate trafficking of arms," Francis said Wednesday.

"Let us all make a commitment, so that tragedies like this cannot happen again," he added.

Cardinal Blase J. Cupich, the archbishop of Chicago, agreed in a long statement via Twitter.

We have gun control. What else do the Pope and the Cardinal have in mind?

We can talk about it after he disbands the Swiss Guard.

(Still wouldn’t sacrifice my God-given right to defend myself from a tyrannical government, but at least if he got rid of the Swiss Guard, he wouldn’t be quite the hypocrite)

Next he’ll take it further and say that we aren’t endowed by our creator with certain unalieable rights.

So the Cardinal believes that US law should consist only of those things that came down from Sinai?

Not my Pope! If this “Pope” was a real Catholic he'd recall...clearly...Christ's “render unto Caesar the things that are Caesar's” command.

The 2nd Amendment belongs to Caesar. It ain't rocket science.

No thanks, Cardinal. The Chinese stopped having free elections as soon as their privately owned weapons were confiscated. That was in 1949.

Freedom of religion didn’t come from Sinai, either.

(And doesn’t the Poop have armed guards of his own?)

Why would he interject himself into this tragedy? Natural law states at it’s core the fundamental right to preserve your life by whatever means necessary.

One thing for sure, this “pope” sure as hell didn’t “come down from Mount Sinai” … jerk-off that he is!
