Homeless in Philly Being Shunned

The police in Philadelphia are temporarily deporting the homeless off the streets in Philadelphia for "security reasons" due to the Pope's visit.  Pope Francis has called for the inclusion of the poor in American society and in the world.

Question:  Should Pope Francis berate the Philadelphia police for their actions?

He should not be the one to say: this is bullshit! If he does, great. But why is THE POLICE doing that? It should be the contrary. But I guess no...

If anything he should support them. I'm not rich by any means but homelessness is not due to poverty, it's due to willfully refusing to ask for welfare or benefits in order to work your way up to a decent income again.

Because welfare is just handed out like candy on Halloween.

If you're homeless and can prove that you have nowhere to live then yes, it is. :)

Next comeback from your stupid imitating self?

It would be a much more constructive activity if the Pious Pontiff would provide details of his economic strategy and financial projections which would pay for the housing of life's losers. A five year old child could travel around wearing a condescending smile and making sanctimonious speeches about the plight of the poor. What are his solutions? Does this preachy Pope not read the scriptures in his own Bible in which it states, ''the poor ye shall have with thee always''. How the weak minded simpletons need to invent gods to worship and choose an earthly figure to extol. It's truly embarrassing and saddening to watch adults wasting valuable working hours waiting to get a glimpse of someone who is totally incapable of even slightly relieving the world's suffering masses. All the waving and glorifying this so called infallible representative of god on earth only goes to add to his holier-than-thou self image. The sorrowful sight of pathetic, mindless masses lining the streets of Philadelphia was a terrible indictment of a large section of American society. The Vatican is in the process of beautifying Pope Pious X11 to Sainthood despite the fact that he blessed the Italian Air Force as they went off to bomb a defenseless Ethiopia. Successive Popes covered up the shocking abuse of children by members clergy who were entrusted with their protection and well being. The Popes involved in this willful cover up were culpable of aiding and abetting the suppression of the truth about the 100s of paedophiles in Roman Catholic priesthood destroying the lives of 1000s of innocent children. The mindless masses of Muslims go off to Mecca every year like lemmings to slaughter themselves whilst Roman Catholic Christians exalt mere mortals who have chosen not to live normal lives as nature has intended in society like everyone else.

But you see you live in the world of the Huff and Puff post and take that as journalism when of course it is not !
