2016 New Hampshire Primaries

"A person who thinks only about building walls, wherever they may be, and not building bridges, is not Christian. This is not in the gospel," the Pope told journalists


Irony

 

Not to mention the refugee crisis in Europe.

 

Hillary leaving Nevada Caucus early. I think we can guess what that means.

 

The Vatican walls are a slightly different deal, though.

 

Ben carson can do it. Especially if he's at one of those family reunions where everyone has matching t-shirts.
I kid also.

 

Worst photoshop ever.

 

Built following an attack from Muslims; and fortified by an Army.

 

An Arab army 1200 years ago and now with open doors to pretty much anyone.

 

He's too busy trying to figure out how to get all the grain out of the pyramids.

 

Seriously?!? There was only 1 access point for me and 99.999% of others and very few places I was allowed to go (Plaza, Museum, St Peters Basilica, Sistine Chapel). The rest of the Country is off limits and guarded by an Army to ensure compliance.

 

The "rest of the country" is, basically, private residences and such, though, right? Is it true or not true that anyone in Rome can just walk right into the country of Vatican City without even a passport?

 

That's like 99.99% of others. Everyone if you will. And no, they can't just walk in.

 

You basically get the Plaza and St Peters Basilica (enter and exit front door only). Most of the Country is Green Space and Features not open to the public (blocked by a Wall and an Army)

List of features - http://stpetersbasilica.info/vaticancity-map.htm

 

Yes, you can, pretty much. No passport or visa required.

 

Yes, but the wall doesn't keep you out of the country, right? The public areas are accessible to anyone who comes there. The fact that you can't just wander on to anyone's private residence isn't particularly unique.

 

It would be like building a wall around Texas (except at the southern border) guarded by an Army and only allowing visitors to come and go to Texas but not the rest of the Country.

 

I certainly didn't see any panhandling gypsies like I saw in the rest of Rome

 

Sounds gross.

 

Now that could be an interesting line of inquiry. I haven't been, but now that you mention it you never hear about them there...

 

It's far more like going to a national monument than going to a seperate country. There's clearly some security that keeps undesirables away. Wish they would kept the scam tour leaders away though
