Pope assaulted during mass

[surrey jim]

Breaking news on Sky, cant find any sources on-line at the mo...

apparently knocked down by a woman - another cardinal also injured.

 

[Cheeky Monkey]

The pope - what a load of bollox, who needs some senile old git prancing around in a white outfit in a converted disabled car? Sorry but it's just bum cheeks the whole thing.

Was burlisconi the other week, seems to be the in thing in italy atm.

 

[vegster]

Did she hit the Pope or Cardinal Sin or did she do Cardinal Sin by hitting the Pope ?

Why were the attackers in both cases (Papal and Da Boss) described as being mentally ill? They were obviously thinking rationally and reasonably.

Shit security detail. Needs sacking. A black suit, shades and an earpiece does not make an effective security team. Amazing considering they are amongst the top 5 highest paid security operatives in the world.

Yes, attacking someone is both rational and reasonable

Blimey Juan, how can you possibly advocate forgiveness in the season of good will to all Both Berlusconi and The Pope should have been better protected and why would anyone agree that such attacks are right.

Firstly i hope the Pope is ok but this kind of reporting really pisses me off everytime something like this happens and keeps that stigma of mental illness in society.Have they gone through her medical records thoroughly? Talked to her doctors? To these journalists it's either black or white-no inbetween.

Certainly a bit early to be making assumptions.Everybody that has a fight down West Street suffers from being mentally ill then.

I agree with the view that the press and society automatically hang labels on people in this sort of incident which increases the stigma of mental illness. There could be numerous other reasons why these two have been attacked which are totally unrelated to any form of mental illness.

They are both Reptoids?

If you watch the video it's the security bloke's fault that the Pope went headlong. He dragged her away just has she got hold of him.

 

[Spun Cuppa]

A Catholic priest being assaulted? I thought it was usually the other way round!?

Did she hit the Pope or Cardinal Sin or did she do Cardinal Sin by hitting the Pope ?

Did she have a pop at the pope?

 

[Bry Nylon]

She had the Pope on the ropes.
