    Not a single live webcam seems to be active in the entire city to verify who is actually out watching the event, conspiracy theories welcome.


    Check out some FB feeds. Fairly quiet.

    But he ain't the man who raped.

    He represents the institution. He is part of the organisation who did and continues to cover up.

    At ground level, the crowd looks decent enough but much thinner from the air:

    First photo is O’Connell Street, second photo is Westmoreland Street.

    He's going a pretty decent distance across the city of course the crowd is going to be spread out.

    Obsessed about crowds. Lol. Using crowds as some sort of victory in your own head.
    There's a half a million in the Phoenix Park tomorrow. What does that say about a different Ireland.

    That random woman had a great view - entire street to herself. Must have just opened her front door for a look :-)

    Aren't there 500k going to the mass in the phoenix park on top of the turn out on the streets.

    Thats the thing Obama is in the states. The leader of an organisation that engaged in the rape and abuse of children is here. No comparison tbh.

    These are main thoroughfares though where there should be the biggest congregations.

    Asked my neighbour, a nurse, if she was going to see the Pope


    - I am not
    - anyway they've (hospital) offered O/T tonight and tomorrow

    - I said to everyone it will be different. Instead of drunks we'll get people who've fallen off buses and people who forgot to take their blood pressure tablets


    Made me smile


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 15,111 ✭✭✭✭RasTa


    Lol. You were waiting for the chance.

    You've completely lost your mind these days. Sad to see. I wasn't waiting for a chance but I won't keep quiet when people like yourself start dictating to people who got ****ed up the ass as a child for two years to stop "complaining"

    There was one poster yesterday saying the same and now yourself. It's disgusting.

    Well the Leader of a group who murdered millions of Muslims and other innocent people around the world.

    I'm not blaming him for Catholic Ireland now.

    Obama was here a few years ago and no-one gave a **** about it, people didn't think it was a scandal we were welcoming the president of a country which has destroyed large parts of the world.

    I found the Obama adulation equally obnoxious and cringe-worthy. The fact that Obama (not unlike Pope Francis) is less of an awful person than some of his predecessors provided scant justification for the arselicking reception this country gave him.

    Sure if she's a good catholic and she prays hard she might be pope herself some day.

    Oh wait......

    500k, we'll see

    Oh for God's sake whist about Obama. It's the pope. The pope is here in Ireland. The thread is about the pope

    Plenty of men women and children were raped by Catholic Church.

    No problem with the outrage and wanting justice.

    It's another to try and lead from a win win situation for him.

    It's not just today which has seem people see him on another life.

    But if you want twist it to make me look like I love some rape (especially after all my posts on the topic down the years here) that's really nothing I can change. Throw me on ignore sure.
