The coordinator of the Catholic Church's Youth Division, Father Luis Rosario, has told his parishioners that the government is responsible for the large amount of weapons in the hands of the populace. Father Rosario accused legislators of hedging the issue. The priest said that the government makes a lot of money out of gun registrations, and thus is stimulated to encourage these. The priest said that nobody should earn money from something that was manufactured to kill people.
He said, "that even if it appears harsh, everyone who carries a gun is a potential murderer." He went on to say that while "more and more people acquire arms to defend themselves, more serious and tragic are the resulting events." Father Rosario was sided by television personality Freddy Beras Goico who said that the eventual disarming of the population depended in large part on the people who own the businesses that sell arms. These businesses are owned by civilians, police and military personnel.
