I'm not sure shouting at children is fair play... if that is indeed what's going on here. I'm probably offended by it, because I was taken to a lot of Christian events as a kid like 'March for Jesus', and I know that what he was shouting would have really upset me as a kid. I'm not sure if those children would have wanted to be there or not, but they probably wouldn't have had any choice in the matter. Shouting offensive things about their religion within earshot seems harsh.

Also, I thought the protest was about the Pope and the things he has said (fair play), not protesting Catholicism (unfair; many British Catholics aren't homophobic, sexist, pro-spreading disease etc etc etc).

Btw, I am British. Just encase you thought I wasn't.
