You're a fuvckin' troll; suspected as much, but now confirmed. Why JR allows you to cruze around a pollute different threads is one of the great mysteries.
We were just in Rome during this past Xmas break - spent an entire morning touring VC. Let me confirm for anyone who hasn't been that there is most assuredly a very heavy police/military presence surrounding the entire 'country'.
Why, that's correct, he currently lives in VC. He has a small abode and can be seen strolling & sunning himself in the gardens if you're lucky enough to catch him out in public.
The VC has a small community of full time residents, all of whom are members of the church. For a disgraced cleric, it's the best of all possible worlds: no sanction and plenty of small boys still around.
And how do you know that?
I’ve been there. Security is very tight ... as indeed it should be or people would be stealing all kinds of things. There are a lot of nice things there.
Swiss Soldiers from the Gebirgs 85th Infantry Battalion training with the Light Machine Gun 05 (FN Minimi).
This Pope scares me. He is authorizing millions of Catholics to ignore the Bible and embrace the NWO.
Kind of overreacting aren’t we? Tom Cruise got in no problem on Mission Impossible.
lol
Yes there are very old walls around the Vatican, except for the eastern entrance where St. Peter’s Basilica sits. You can walk right up to the church. There are lines and entry is controlled, but no walls. Entrance is free, and there is a dress code.
Once in the Basilica you can access the Sistine Chapel and the 4 Vatican museums also. I don’t know about access to the grounds in general.
You can also access the basement below the Basilica from inside. That’s where many Popes are interred. There is a second basement below that area, can be accessed but only by guided tour. There are several tours a day of that area.
The Swiss Guards have been visible around the entrance to the Basilica every time I’ve been there.
I agree. The Pope might also believe he can influence Rubio the Robot.
This is the Castel Sant'angelo. Pope Clement VII holed up in there while Charles V's troops sacked Rome in 1527. Chuckie-vee said it was an accident. Hey, it happens.
Nice walls.
YUGE wall around the Vatican. Saw it with my own Mark Is last spring.
Dude!
The Pope didn’t think we would notice.
I've been there too. And yes, security is tight. But it's internal and concentrated around the Apostolic Palace, not walking the walls or manning guard towers.
Because as we Cruze around we offset the lunacy of the average Trumpers.
“YUGE wall around the Vatican. Saw it with my own Mark Is last spring.”
I guess the wall is brand new too right?
