The Pope gets pissed.................

I can't blame him the way that woman jerked his arm. My question is where was security to prevent that?
Let me State for the record it would have pissed me off too. I would have certainly snatched back under the circumstance but I don't know if I'd have gone to spanking the hand but you know having many friends who went through Parochial School spanking hands has long been the Catholic way to address untoward Behavior. Frankly I don't have a problem with what he did I think it was pretty rude of the lady. He had Security in front and behind
him but obviously being that it's the pope they didn't want to go overboard and choke the poor lady down. I don't think she would ever want to try that against a US president. Might be a total different reaction.
She probably thinks she is cursed to hell.
That's pretty much my assessment...This Pope was trying to be more a man-of-the-people, rather than just an object of adoration in a bullet-resistant Popemobile like his predecessors, but took a human reaction to being manhandled...The lady seemed to be overcome by her moment of opportunity feeling she could get a stronger blessing by touching the Pontiff...The Papal Guard took the only appropriate action they could...Sounds like a learning point for everyone...:grouphug:...BenQuote:
