What’s he supposed to do? Dress up as batman and go punch bad guys?

Well, I mean the Pope could dress up as batman if he really wanted to, but what the Pope does in his private time is his own business. But, didn’t the whole crucifixion thing that the whole religion is based on come about because of a punishment for a crime? You know that pontius pilate thing?

      Statistically, Vatican City has the highest crime rate in the world.
      Crime rate is measured per resident. Vatican City has fewer than 800 residents, but millions of visitors each year.
      The crimes are almost exclusively pickpocketing in St. Peter’s Square.

      On a related note, this is also why undocumented immigrants ALWAYS increase a country’s crime rate statistic, even if they commit fewer crimes than people born there: Any crimes committed by immigrants are added to the crime rate, but their numbers don’t increase the denominator, since they aren’t counted as residents in the statistic.

      So be aware of that statistical error when someone tries to use it to “prove” immigrants are criminals.

      Stop trying to argue with Trump. It doesn’t matter if the crime rate in Vatican City is zero. He’ll just move the goal posts.

      The only shit these assholes understand is a blow to their ego.

      Like how they are in the Epstein files and that means they are child rapists.
