ISSUE | POPE FRANCIS
population. It is our very freedom that is being challenged. This isn't
about religion anymore. It's about subjugation!

Frank and open
When Pope John Paul II visited Philadelphia in 1979, Mayor Frank Rizzo
did everything he could to ensure that everyone in the city and suburbs
had an opportunity to see the Holy Father. (I served as Rizzo's press
secretary.) But it appears that Mayor Nutter feels compelled to make
Center City a fenced-in fortress for Pope Francis' visit ("Nutter
outlines papal security," Friday).
The pope recently traveled
through several South American countries, visiting slums and high-crime
areas without incident. He is truly a pope for all the people. It's sad
to think that many in our area won't have a once-in-a-lifetime
opportunity to see him.

Philadelphia and SEPTA are preventing the elderly, the handicapped, and
many others from seeing the pope. This should not be happening in the
City of Brotherly Love.

Papal pride, people
