Radical Gays to Throw Ashes at Pope

SOME radical Gay , Lesbian , Bisexual , and Transgendered "Catholics" are planning to give quite a different greeting to Pope Benedict when he comes to the USA. Tip of hat to Cosmos Liturgy Sex and their entry in leading me to this Rainbow Sash Movement is calling for Ashes and Whistles to greet the Pope on his US Visit

The Rainbow Sash Movement is calling on all Catholics of good will to take the Papal visit as an opportunity to shower the Pope mobile with ashes instead of confetti. Ashes are an ancient and appropriate greeting for a sinner who has caused the Church so much division and pain. We will also be greeting him with whistles; these were used by the Polish People to show shame for the violation of human rights by the Communist Government prior to the end of the cold war. This will be a loud call for reform, that the Pope will be unable to turn a deaf ear to.

More at their link. It would be interesting to look a tht possible Canon Law sanction if any they might face if successful. However no doubt the US Secret Service has already paid some of these people a visit.
