To:  The Vatican and the Italian Government

The Vatican has sought to have the Italian judiciary prosecute comedian Sabina Guzzanti under a law written by the fascist government prior to World War 2. This law provides for a five year sentence for a person found to have insulted either the Italian President or the Pope.

Sabina Guzzanti, made a joke about the Pope in a recent performance in Rome. (http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/world/europe/article4732048.ece)

Please sign this petition to protest directly to the Vatican for its unwarranted and anti-democratic interference in the judicial process of a different state.

Sincerely,

The Undersigned
