• "Partly sparked by “boredom”, the newspaper said, as they “do not know what to do with themselves”.

  Give them some work to do. Better yet, send their asses home.

• Q: What is even more entitled than black Obama voters?
  R: Asylum seekers in Italy.

  • Uhm... you say that as if there were NO white Obama voters. With less than 20% of the population, Blacks alone couldn't have possibly make Obama President. It was WHITES (especially young WHITE people) those that voted for him and those that did not vote at all or wasted their votes (on a candidate that would not win no matter what) that put the man in office...

    It is time for people to actually put the blame if there is a need to do that on the right group of people. It was obvious that the majority of Blacks would vote for him, not saying it is a good thing, but it is an obvious assumption although not all did, it is obvious to assume that the majority would. It shouldn't have surprise anyone.

    What qualify the voters as Black anyway...? entitle Obama voters would have gotten your point across just as well. All that a liberal or a undecided or disappointed Black person has to see there is you promoting racial divide. Totally unnecessary.

• I was happy with the Latin American Pope and all of that, but little by little this guy is getting on my nerves...

• Link seems to be broken, but it sounds like our first communist Pope is regurgitating his already tiresome theme.

• how about empowering the homeless to find their own homes?

  • Or start a new movement:
    OCCUPY THE VATICAN!
    :-D

    • That should be no problem for homeless choirboys.

• since the Vatican is its own country why not allow all those homeless to enter, melt down a bit of that gold and sell off some of that priceless art, amazing how someone feels so empowered to tell others what to do and have the moral superiority to say, you need to spend this on that, but I need to maintain my treasures because they belong to God?

  • Socialism is for the people not the Pope or something like that.

    • LOL

      LESSONS IN SOCIALISM

      When a leader says that "we" have to do something about something what he really means that "you" The People are the ones that are going to be doing something about something like it or not.

      Socialism... The People are reminded of their responsibilities to the common good on a constant basis. YaY!

      • Lessons in business: I made money. We lost money.

• I won't even bother to click over to the story. This pope has demonstrated he has a well-developed sense of social justice. That isn't a compliment.

  • Yea, I haven't been needing to take blood pressure medicine for almost a year now, no point in opening the link and ruining that track record!

• Is the Vatican going to pay for this brilliant idea?
  What kind of houses are they going to get, McMansions or Cuban hill people style tin shacks?

  • they COULD just rock in his house and let the homeless masses live their.
