The Vatican’s top busybody recently got caught speaking ill of some of his flock. A message from the Pope was published expressing his hope that Argentina could “avoid the Mexicanization. I was talking to some Mexican bishops and it’s a terrible situation.”

By “Mexicanization” he meant the spread of drug gangs and violent crime. In response, Mexican authorities promised Monday to send a firmly worded letter protesting his telling the truth about their crime-ridden country.

Pope Francis is generous with other people’s countries. In 2013 he greeted fleebag Africans on the Italian island of Lampedusa and invited them to Europe.

Funny, Pope Francis wouldn’t mind turning the United States into a diverse criminal barrio filled with Mexicans. He routinely urges a more liberal approach from the US regarding our borders and sovereignty. Last summer he complained about the “racist and xenophobic attitudes” of Americans when the border was being flooded with tens of thousands of Central American illegals.

Around the same time, the Pope railed against “people who only see in immigration a source of illegality, social conflict and violence.”

In January, he said he might enter the United States across the Mexican border as “a beautiful gesture of brotherhood and support for immigrants.”

But when it comes to his beloved country of Argentina, invasive criminal Mexicans are a problem to be stopped.
