400 of the feckers, and I'll bet there's loads more he didn't banish.
Tip of the iceberg.

How do gay people 'imperil' the Pope's security? Just because they're gay doesn't mean they want to rape the pope (or people in general).

I think the commandant was worried about external blackmail or his guards getting involved in the conspiracies that crop up in the Vatican.

I was not thinking of any linkage between the stories, but more of a general crisis in the Vatican.
