Other than that, it does not concern me. Do I think it was a nice thing to do? No. Do I think it was humorous? Yes. Do I think that what Catholic priests have done is nice OR humorous? No.

What possible relationship can there be between this disgusting incident of trespass and the problems of the Catholic Church?

Given the fact it doesn't concern you in the least, I'm puzzled as to why you're on the thread in the first place.

Now that you've told everyone how funny you think it is, your business here is done.

"I don't care what anybody does as long as it doesn't involve me. Is that
"bashing?""

Oh, my God! You ARE asking for it, aren't you? Were you sexually abused by a Catholic priest? If not, then why are you commenting on that subject?

find out the Washington, D.C. and New York City contact points and specific laws, and start the wheels of outrage positively in such a way as to heavily fine the sick facilitators, or if possible, to get them removed from the public airwaves of the People of the United States. Let's set an example.

If I can help, let me know. I have a savvy sister there in the city who may also be of help.

Your comment speaks volumes about you.

What about the NY cops who were listening in and did nothing until they heard another cop on the scene. What does it say about them?

"But the Catholic church is fair game for every low degrading insult.

Why is that?"

Because of people like you, stanz.

Sheesh! NY's finest at work. I can just picture these gumbas in their squad car laughing it up, spitting little chunks of donut everywhere. I suppose it's O.K. and funny to listen to on the radio. It doesn't become a "situation" untill another cop is somehow "at risk". Typical cop mentality.

Not a bad idea to inundate the district as well.

Who said anything about a creator doing it to get "jollies"?

Why else would He need mortals like y'all to do His dirty work?

I'll decide when my business is done here. If people are sensitive to what I considered was a funny quip and need to label me as a Catholic basher because of it and decide that I have an "agenda" then they are seriously mis-guided.
And now you tell me my business is finished here. So much for a FR forum.

Seriously you can't believe that because of me the Catholic church is open to insult. All because of my little quip?

O.K. we should all not care because we weren't the subject of abuse?

"Unbelievable," said New Yorker Ren Brown. "I try not to judge, but that's just going too far."

Try making a judgement dude.

Whipping would be a suitable punishment for these animals. Jail is too good for these dogs.
