CM Punk Calls The Pope A ‘Nazi’ – Kurt Angle Responds

CM Punk tweeted a Nazi joke about the news that Pope Benedict XVI is retiring due to his age at the end of the month. Benedict has been often criticized for his participation in the Hitler Youth program in the late ’30s, a participation that he defended by saying that all children who grew up in Germany were forced to join the group. Punk retweeted the following from a fan, calling the joke “magic”:

“The pope resigned? I did nazi that coming.”

When someone else replied to it saying that Punk was pushing the envelope, Punk replied:

“Oh piss off. Pope was a nazi.”
