Muslim Immigrants Smash & Urinate on Virgin Mary Statue in Italy
thegatewaypundit.com ^ | january 18, 2015 | jim hoft

Posted on 01/18/2015 4:30:55 PM PST by lowbridge

A man was kneeling in prayer before the statue of the revered Madonna, with the photograph of a loved one in hand, in the small chapel of St. Barnabas in Perugia (Italy), when he was attacked by five “immigrants.”

The first thing they did was rip the photo from his hands.

Next they unleashed their hatred against the image of the Virgin Mary. They broke the statue to pieces and then urinated on it.

Don Scarda, pastor of St. Barnabas, said the event was led byfive “foreigners.” By the time police arrived at the chapel, the unidentified attackers had already fled.

The incident has caused a stir among locals. Some have lambasted Pope Francis who is accused of appeasing immigrants—mostly Muslims—to wild extremes. Earlier he had said that “Migrants, through their own humanity, cultural values, expand the sense of human brotherhood.”

Although the Diocese condemned the act of sacrilege against the Madonna statue, it also followed the Pope’s lead by absolving Islam of any responsibility for what happened.

I think this is one of the situations Mr. Gatling foresaw.

Now see, there’s the difference. When I see muslims kneeling on the little Oriental rugs that they’ve pulled out of the trunks of their cabs and spread on the sidewalk, I just saying the Rosary audibly.

Let the Mafia handle this. Government officials and church leaders are apparently unable to.

Nevertheless, Europe keeps importing Isalamics/IslamoNazis/Moslems...... and is not even trying to send the ones they already have back to Krapistan.

Nobody died so these can be classified as “moderate” muslims.

I made the sign of the cross in front of a couple of them in a car adjacent to mine at a stop light. They freaked, but didn’t react...yet. I just wanted to let them know there are Crusaders in the West, we have been on to them for 14 centuries and still are, and are willing to send them to allah, when they start their jihad right here in the old USA, a Christian nation, last time I checked, regardless what people in power say to the press. Just sayin’.

So how do you think the Catholics will deal with it, will they riot, burn cars and kill muslims? Perhaps the Knights Templar will be reborn and a new crusade will begin................nah, they’ll just wring their hands and grumble, while a number of false Christians will call for understanding and forgiveness of the muslims because after all it’s the Christian’s fault for existing.

Has the Pope come out and said that was not urine, but it was Holy water?

Historians will one day note that the election of left wing governments in the latter half of the 20th century in the United States and Europe was a catastrophe for Western civilization. Those governments altered immigration laws and embraced the corrosive fraud of “multiculturalism”. By the time the people realized the harm done, it was irreversible.

“I just saying the Rosary audibly.”

Which is why we are going to lose this war.

Nothing to see here. Just some more of that “diversity” and “multiculturalism” stuff.

The Italians, in my opinion, are a wild card.
They may ignore it, or there may be dead muzzies as a result.
I don’t think they buy into the guilt bs that the Brits and Frogs seem to be choking on.

Muslim clerics have been doing this for years. Seems to be a popular form of taunting and disrespect for Christians. We turn the other cheek while they burn churches.
