A video showing why the people need to help themselves instead of running away from their country to live on welfare in the US.

I have great respect for the Pope but I have to disagree with him on this one, I know he said that out of a good heart but there are times you need to think with your head and exercise caution as well as enforce the law.

I’m beginning to think that Satan told the previous pope to resign.

I don’t find much of a good heart in calling my countrymen and me xenophobes and racists.

Well in that case, pack them up and send them to the Vatican ... I’m sure that he can come up with some “alms for the poor” to take care of the situation and an added bonus is that he speaks their language.

How much would it cost to ship them all to Italy?

Probably a lot less than all the tax payer funded welfare benefits they will suck up.

Hey, padre, why don’t you condemn the governments these people are running away from. And why don’t you tell them all to go back and fix the lands God gave instead of lecturing the undeserving host these people have forced themselves on. Why don’t you do that?
