I change my mind.
I'm OK with Corps which pick and choose clienteles. Both insurance companies and casinos have the right to pick and choose customers. They may keep profitable ones and kicked out the rest. But, I'm not OK with a casino supervisor who says counting cards... is like stealing food from a buffet (a foodlifting offense), or video-taping a movie in a cinema (a piracy offense).

I thought he used any pre-owned compact car that was handy as a Pope-mobile...
May the cards fall in your favor.

Yes, he seems to not want to use the Popemobile that came about after the assassination attempt...
""It's true that anything could happen, but let's face it, at my age I don't have much to lose," he told Barcelona newspaper La Vanguardia in an interview published Friday and reported on in English by Vatican Radio.
"I know that something could happen to me, but it's in the hands of God.""

I remember when John Paul came to Boston. There was no Pope mobile, in fact he was in a black Lincoln that I was told was provided by the Secret Service. The pope stood through the sunroof and waved to the crowds during his trip from the airport to the common. Would he be allowed to do that today?

Allowed, sure. Able, well...
I'm pretty sure that the Pope gets to decide how he gets around, and the security team listens and does what they can to keep him from getting shot while respecting his wishes.
