He said he opposed the arms trade to people who plan to do harm.

He didn’t even mention “guns manufactured in America.” That’s what Breitbart.com says, but it’s not in the pope’s speech.

The pope didn’t argue against the sale of guns.

He presents four great Americans to congress.

One was Dorothy Day of the Catholic worker movement and communist party.

Check out wiki if you have a strong constitution.

> So many bad things happening in the world, and this is what he addresses? I’m sorry, but this is wrong.

Faux cause # 1: Climate change
Real goal: force companies to buy carbon credits. Create a commodity out of thin air. Buy, trade, and manupulate the market on them and get rich.

Faux cause # 2: Gun Violence / Control
Real goal: remove weapons from the populace and destroy one of the cornerstones of America’s power; its citizens. Remove their power; move in an opposing force (Muslims) and destroy America’s world influence and ability to come to the aid of other countries. Secondary goal; kill American citizens or enslave them. Tertiary goal; kill the “white” man.

Faux cause # 3: Sustained Development; supposedly to conserve world resources
Real goal: Creation of a regulatory and rigidly controlled environment for NWO citizens. Hoarding of resources for eliteists.

I love Jesus, I love the Pope, but this guy is not the Pope. This is a fraud.

Did the pope scold Obama for Fast and Furious?

And yet, not a word about Obama helping Iranian muslims get nuclear weapons.

The dems must be in absolute ecstasy right now.

Author of Brietbart, clicky bait title.

Pope Did not scold congress for Gun and Weapons sales, but for selling guns and weapons to murderers, like Islamic extremists.

Like Thomas Sowell said...
The Left has their own Pope now.

Watching the past few days national “news coverage”, one would think we live in a theocracy. Local coverage a little better.
I have spent the past two days yelling at and cussing this Pope. Simply because of the fawning media and the Washington ruling class. I saw Pope John Paul II back in the 80s when he was in Colorado and I do not remember anything close to what I have seen the past few days.
As I said before, the Catholic Church is as far from Pope John Paul II as the United States is from Ronald Reagan.
Both will survive, but as a shell. Both have lost their souls.

Just as Obama is working to destroy America, Benedict is working to reduce the Catholic Church. The Devil is afoot.

That's the way it feels to me. Something about this pope has bothered me from day one, not just now...same feeling I've had about Obama... like they're in a totally different dimension than we are.

As up far as I am concerned, a healthy arms industry in this country is necessary for our security and that of our allies, including Israel. We and our allies prevent true barbarism from running wild. As such, the Pope should be THANKFUL that we sell arms.

Oh, and regarding Israel, it is the one place Jews have had a refuge for the last 2,000 years...during much of which the Pope’s organization led the intellectual, theological and physical persecution and mass murder of the Jews - the very People that gave birth to the Church’s savior. The Pope should tread very carefully in these matters.

Frankly, he should largely mess out of non-religious affairs...his doctrinal infallibility does not apply here, and he opens himself up to any and all criticism.

Maybe his choice of words is too vague. But it seems that people are looking for a reason to dislike this pope.
