Archbishop of San Antonio says there needs to be tougher gun laws following Uvalde shooting, reports say
"...These massacres cannot be considered 'the new normal,'" he said in a statement
SAN ANTONIO San Antonio Archbishop Gustavo Garcia-Siller has spoken out against loose gun laws following the shooting at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, where 19 students and two teachers were killed.
The archbishop, whose archdiocese reaches Uvalde, told reporters that "of course" there is a need for tougher rules on gun ownership, according to the Huffington Post.
"Of course! Of course! Because anything that can be connected with death and aggression We have to, we're supposed to promote life, the life of people," he told reporters on Wednesday outside an auditorium where Texas Gov. Greg Abbott was giving a press conference.
"It's people's lives. We have to be consistent in our ethics at least, as Catholics," Garcia-Siller added.
---------------------------------
The archbishop also told ABC News that there's an issue with mental health, especially during a pandemic, but "guns have been in all the situations that we have witnessed."
Gustavo Garcia-Siller initially released a statement on Tuesday evening, hours after the shooting.
In the statement, he said "these massacres cannot be considered 'the new normal.'"
"The Catholic Church consistently calls for the protection of all life; and these mass shootings are a most pressing life issue on which all in society must act elected leaders and citizens alike," he said in a portion of the statement.
Or is that (D)ifferent?
All to be consistent in your ethics at least a Catholic, correcto?
