Yes, it knows a thing or two, on both sides of the equation.
Canon Law - which at that time the NCR claimed to be bound by as all Catholics were.

Why would it be?
“That is a pity. The 2nd Amendment is the means of last resort to support all the other rights so defined.”
Not outside of America it isn’t. And that’s exactly why it might be “regarded as a matter of little import, not warranting clarification.”
Take that up with the Director of the Press Office of your church, who deigned to comment upon such a provincial matter, irrelevant to the world at large.

Not irrelevant, just not relevant enough to need further clarification to your satisfaction.
I see.
Much of the content of the National "catholic" Reporter does deal with faith and morals, from a decidedly anti-Catholic point of view. Lately, it has been edging ever closer to being an apologist for abortion as well as women's ordination, birth control (the one "sacrament" clearly and enthusiastically supported by NCR).
The NCR has editorialized that young Bishop Finn (generally a conservative and therefore in NCR's view guilty of actual Catholicism) should resign because he was murkily convicted of not putting some kiddie porn viewing priest immediately into outer darkness and was convicted in a court of law. However, predecessors of Bishop Finn have been denouncing NCR as a non-Catholic fraud posing as "catholic" for many years.
Now that’s just plain silly.
What, expecting clarification as to whether the Director of the Press Office of the Holy See was speaking in an official capacity when issuing a statement in support of impending Obama administration efforts to restrict the 2A? That’s silly?
Silly yes.
I’m concerned about your concern about my concern about the Church of God.
But thank you for your concern.
{^_^}
Your lack of concern is noted.
Do you agree with efforts by the Obama administration to restrict 2A rights, D-fendr?
You must. You’re being entirely too flippant about this.
I’m often flippant about faux concern.
Proverbs 26:5.
Evasion.
Spurious.
Luke 22 even says that the Apostles were to sell their clothing to get swords.
