PF:Â Thank you for coming to see me Captain.
Swiss Guard Captain (SGC): At your orders Holiness.
PF:Â Some of my gringo Cardinals are grumbling that I need to make a dramatic gesture on guns.
SGC: Thinking: I don’t like where this is heading. Yes, Holiness?
PF:Â Is it necessary for my Guard to have fire arms?
SGC: Thinking: More woke crapola. Only if we are to be guards Holiness instead of colorfully uniformed targets.
PF: Wasn’t there some masked gringo that shot guns out of the hands of malefactors. Could your men do that?
SGC: Thinking: Holy Mother give me strength! I think your Holiness is referring to the Lone Ranger. He was a fictional character on television and his exploits bear no resemblance to reality.
PF: Grumbling. Bueno, Our Lord did tell Saint Peter to put up his sword.
SGC: True Holiness, and if you decide not to be guarded that is your call. My men and I will then return to Switzerland. Thinking: And I, for one, would be a lot happier.
PF:Â Gringos seem to be obsessed with guns.
SGC:Â Well, Holiness, my homeland is perhaps the most heavily armed per capita on Earth.
PF:Â You are gringos too, but you are not loco like the Norte Americanos.
SFG:Â Thinking:Â Ever the soul of charm.
PF: Perhaps I should excommunicate all arms merchants. What do you think?
SFG: Thinking: That you are crazy? Excommunication is far from my field of expertise Holiness.
PF: Gracias Captain. You have been no help.
SFG: Salutes. Always happy to be of service Holiness.
The pope being a typical leftist would NEVER ask if his own security detail if they need guns. He wants them armed to the teeth and then some. He just thinks ordinary innocent law abiding folk ought not have guns.
The Pope will demand that his guards all carry ghost guns, that way he’ll feel virtuous knowing that they were made in house and not by evil gun manufacturers 😀
Dear Pope Frankie,
There are only 2 or 3(?) South American countries with a lower homicide rate than United States. And if we took Cupich’s Diocese out from the count we would be lower than all South American countries.
Self-defense is a God given gift inscribed in the Second Amendment. WHO is God. God is the Supreme Sovereign Being. He WHO is. The atheist never bore the burden of proof in the court of law that there is no God.
