Pope speaks out against the mafia.
I'm not Catholic, but I have a lot of respect for some of these popes. John Paul II was a leader against communism. Along with Thatcher and Reagan, the three of them drove a stake through the heart of the evil empire.

Now, like John Paul II, Pope Benedict XVI spoke out against the mafia yesterday. Good for him. All organized crime sucks.

I think most people are against organized crime and gangs, but this guy will never experience either.

It's early innings, but so far Francis seems to be saying and doing the right things.

John Paul I must have ticked someone off after he spoke out against the Mob.
