Pope Leo XIV is the first American Pope in history, and many gun owners want to know if Pope Leo has any stances on gun control.
The available information is pretty scarce. And with many major church leaders leaning toward supporting gun control, it’s no surprise that Leo has also expressed support for it.
In the wake of the Las Vegas shooting, Leo reposted something said by Cardinal Blase Cupich, who called for more mental healthcare and more “sensible gun control laws.” Of course, “sensible” means “destroy the Second Amendment.”
On the same day, Leo also shared a post from notorious gun grabber Sen. Chris Murphy (D – CT). Murphy called his colleagues cowards and said more had to be done to go after guns.
That is about all the information we can find on Leo’s stances on gun control. While Leo is a registered Republican, that does not mean his desire to protect individual rights is his priority.
