Brazilian assassinates the Pope and others in "art"

Citing the “alleged crimes” of a variety of world leaders, Brazilian “artist” Gil Vicente’s drawings of himself killing different leaders opened at the Sao Paulo Art Biennial on Saturday.

To the best of my knowledge, it’s the first time that artwork - if you can call it that - depicting the assassination of the Pope has ever gone on display publicly. It’s offensive, outrageous, and hate-filled.

Vicente’s charcoal drawing of the Pope shows him confronting Pope Benedict XVI with a pistol. The Pope has his hands upturned.

As part of the series, Vicente is shown assassinating a total of nine world leaders, including former U.S. President George W. Bush, Israeli prime minister Ariel Sharon, the former UN Secretary General Kofi Annan, and Britain’s Queen.

I'm not gonna say that he broke any laws, though in many countries incitement to violence is illegal. But I will say that if I were in charge of the Secret Service, I'd tell this clown that he just bought himself a non-refundable ticket on the "No-Fly" list and a lifetime ban on entering the United States (not that he would necessarily care).
