"On Thursday alone, the New York State attorney general issued subpoenas to all eight Catholic dioceses in the state as part of a sweeping civil investigation into whether institutions covered up allegations of sexual abuse of children, officials said. The attorney general in New Jersey announced a criminal investigation."
"In the three weeks since the release of the Pennsylvania report, the attorneys general of Illinois, Missouri, Nebraska and New Mexico have also said they will investigate sex abuse by Catholic priests in their states...".

He's been urging "Silence and prayers". I am seeing more people sending in their opinions to the local paper. None of those are defending the RCC. Just needs to get rolling. But with the fire hosing spanning many centuries, it'll be an uphill battle all the way. As far as the Vatican being a sovereign state, I do recall that the Italian police raided a certain Cardinal's office over some money laundering for the MAFIA. They were pretty cheesed off about it. There is precedent, there.
If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.
Mentre il compagno beve
la canteremo, la canteremo.
Mentre il compagno beve
la cantaremo larillerà
La la la la
La canzone che ammazza li preti
La la la la
‘mazza monache, preti e fra’!
La la la la
La canzone che ammazza li preti
La la la la
‘mazza monache, preti e fra’!
Se nasce l’anarchia
un bel pranzo s’ha da fa
tutto vitella e manzo
se duimo da magnà
E fritarelle di monache
preti e frati spezzati
l’ossa de ‘sti maiali
ai cani s’ha da dà
E le chiese son botteghe
Li preti son mercanti
Vendono madonne e santi
e a noi ce credono vecchi poveri e ignoranti
vecchi poveri e ignoranti
La la la la
La canzone che ammazza li preti
La la la la
‘mazza monache, preti e fra’!
La la la la
La canzone che ammazza li preti
La la la la
‘mazza monache, preti e fra’!
Translation for the Italian-ly challenged:
"Drink, my friend, drink (the song that kills priests)"
"Drink, my friend, drink
Or else I will kill you"
"Do not kill me my friend,
Now I will drink too"
And while the comrade drinks
We'll sing it, we'll sing it,
And while the comrade drinks
We'll sing it, larillera
La la la la la la
The song that kills the priests
La la la la la la
It kills nuns, priests and friars!
La la la la la la
The song that kills the priests
La la la la la la
It kills nuns, priests and friars
If anarchy comes around
We'll have a great feast
All veal and beef
We'll have to eat
And breaded cutlets of nuns
And stew of friars and priests,
The bones of these damned people
Are to be given to the dogs.
And the churches are glorified shops
And priests are the shopkeepers
They sell Our Ladies and Saints
And think we're old poor and ignorant
Old, poor and ignorant.
La la la la la la
The song that kills the priests
La la la la la la
It kills nuns, priests and friars...
"Every luxury has a deep price. Every indulgence, a cosmic cost. Each fiber of pleasure you experience causes equivalent pain somewhere else. This is the first law of emodynamics [sic]. Joy can be neither created nor destroyed. The balance of happiness is constant.
Fact: Every time you eat a bite of cake, someone gets horsewhipped.
Facter: Every time two people kiss, an orphanage collapses.
Factest: Every time a baby is born, an innocent animal is severely mocked for its physical appearance. Don't be a pleasure hog. Your every smile is a dagger. Happiness is murder.
Vote "yes" on Proposition 1321. Think of some kids. Some kids."
