    She was trying to give him a wee tug ! Naughty lass !

    I would have slapped her too , she could have dislocated his shoulder or torn a ligament .He is 82 years old

    He apologised for the slap on the hand, he's an old man and I read somewhere he has arthritis so he probably felt it when she pulled his arm.

    Surely if you cay pray away the gay, god should have no issue clearing up a bit of arthritis.

    Its odd that people so devoted suffer from the same illnesses as us lowly peasants. :)

    Wondering if it was El Papa's new aftershave 'Breadcrumbs'?

    Watched the video and knew straight off which one was going to be the problem. She's lucky the security guy didn't get to her first but also he should probably have been closer anyway.

    To be fair, he visibly winced in pain when she suddenly grabbed him.
    Arthritis can be agonising.

    It's a little frustrating to see him apologise. I'm the first in line for a bit of Pope bashing, but she basically assaulted him, a little slap on her hand to make her let go is the least she deserved. Try grabbing the head of state for any major country like that and you'll have a team of goons tackling you.

    No idea why you quoted me or even what that post means, he is human just like the 7 billion of the rest of us so yes he would feel pain from arthritis.

    What happened to "turn the other cheek".It's only a couple of days since he was spouting on about all the violence in the world and now he can't control himself.
    Sickening to see all the sycophants rushing to his defence.

    No idea.

    Take a trip over to christianity if you want to know instead of asking a random poster on AH.

    We’ve all seen the footage and it’s not really that bad. But in a lot of jobs if you slap out at another person you would not be kept. Should the pope be sacked??

    It wasn't violence. He very gently slapped her hand because he grabbed him and wouldn't let go. He has a right to bodily autonomy, even if he seeks to deny that right to others.

    BS, making excuses for him, she should sue him for assault. He, above anybody should be expected to restrain himself and you could see in his face afterwards that he was fuming.
    If he was a professional football player he'd be sent off the field and banned for even feinting to strike somebody. Bloody hypocrite.

    Security was abysmal. The woman was obsessed.

    Il Papa was right.

    He was assaulted by a hyper woman. Guessing Korean but no matter.

    Suffering is sharing in the passion of the christ.

    Wouldn't be a big fan of the pope or the church in general. But he done nothing wrong look at his face when she tugged him. He is an old man that could have done damage to him. More serious where his protection.

    Imagine if Il Papa was accosted like that and was another Head of State?

    Security were useless. I don’t blame him, but he took the blame.

    He was putting his hand out for people to take it and she did, she just held it a bit more enthusiastically. Hardly a capital offence.
    What about all the usual c**p he spouts about tolerance, didn't show much of it there.

    He's 83 and looked like it was very painful for him.

    His reaction is understandable.

    If he was a professional football player, he'd be sent off the field for wearing those shoes. And she would have been sent off for grabbing him in the first instance.
