POPE FRANCIS DINES WITH INMATES, TRANGENDER, GAY AND HIV POSITIVE!



In yet another groundbreaking move, Pope Francis yesterday Saturday enjoyed lunch with inmates  of an Italian prison – and along the line, gay and transgender inmates were invited to join.

While on a visit to Naples, Italy, Pope Francis visited the Giuseppe Salvia Detention Center in Poggiorale, outside of Naples. And even though it was not on his original schedule, insisted on the visit including lunch with inmates.

 According to the AssociatedPress, around 90 inmates randomly chosen by lottery, attended the lunch, and that group included 10 inmates from a section of the prison reserved for gay and 

transgender inmates, and inmates who are HIV-positive. In addition to the prison visit, the pope spoke to residents in Scampia, a neighborhood in Naples, and encouraged citizens to resist the “easy earnings or dishonest income” of the Mafia and the drug trafficking trade.
