The Dalai Lama has issued an apology after asking a boy to “suck his tongue” during an event in India earlier this year.

Back in February, a young boy approached the 87-year-old spiritual leader at an event in Dharamshala, India, and asked him for a hug, according to the Associated Press and CNN.

I refuse to normalize pedophilia. Dalai Lama or not, he should be charged with lude acts on a child or whatever they want to call it. Imagine someone in the US doing this. They'd be arrested. It's sickening.

TJEN LILY says:

🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮💩💩

Adrienne F says:

Time for the Dalai Lama to step down. Parents make sure to teach your kids that this type of request from adults is very wrong whether the Dalai Lama or Jesus Christ and to walk away.

WisdomIsSupreme says:

You can't be serious!!! They make it seem like its their culture to suck on little kids tongues. If that's wrong that "culture" needs to speak up and say it's not. All of you in that "culture" are beyond disgusting.

Jinnamon Roll says:

Wasn't it a translation error?

Red_head roofing in July says:

What’s with all these people’s fascination with little boys?

nena valdez says:

Probably his whole group do this kind of disgusting behavior

MI Five says:

Apologize ? who cares. Get rid of the satanic elite.

MI Five says:

CLONE OR SATANIC IMPLANT TO CARRY AGENDA OF PEDOPHILE SATANIC ELITE FORWARD

Random Vicky says:

Apologies ???? Please if he did this in front of cameras imagine what he does behind curtains . Shame on you Dali Lama !

M P says:

There was nothing innocent or playful about this disgusting act. This man needs to be in prison where he cannot lay his hands on our innocent children

Southernbell311 says:

This isn't "teasing someone" this is a pedophile, in power that needs to be removed and placed in prison for being a pedophile who slipped up in public. Read the room people! It is what it is. The man's a pedophile and if asked my kids to do this I'd slap the shit out his old perverted ass

Aivottaja says:

How does he think apologizing remedies this situation? If any pleb adult asked a child to suck his tongue, you would report him to the authorities and that person would be investigated. So, investigate this nauseating POS.

I don't even care if he actually apologized (which he didn't, by the way). It's not like a misstep in conduct or random insensivity or an honest mistake. That's predatory sxual behavior towards children. You don't apologize yourself out of that.

It's a big club he's in. And we're not in it. And thank God we're not, because those in it have forfeited their souls.

planes3333 says:

Why is he not arrested for this crime? Its legally a crime so why does he get away with it. Also can you imagine what he has done in private where nobody was watching. I saw a protest in vancouver where people were supporting and defending him, (loathsome fools …….I made a comment at one guy but I didnt want to get in a fight with a small protest) it sickens me how people do that kind of thing and it sickens me and erages me how people get away with things like that like people on the geffy epstein list and the clintons and on and on. Man its so injust. I think its atrociouis

sylocty13 says:

Disgusting psihopat under a famous name…🤢

Jesse Huynh says:

I’ve been with my wife for 26 years now, we were also innocent and playful when we first met! 😂

Jesse Huynh says:

This mofo asked a young boy in front of the camera to suck his tongue, just imagine how many of our kids he have asked to suck his other body parts behind close doors? Sick pedophile!

MOSHPITMEEK says:

And bold enough to apologize, mf that’s weird ash idc

bIG duke 94 says:

We do not accept your apology you chomo

ཚེ་ལས། || TSELEY says:

Don't spread wrong statement for his holiness the 14th dalai lama… Fast watch the full video 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

Wumao Fiftycent says:

Media people are whores. They would do anything for anyone, as long as they are paid. Don’t you feel ashamed?

Five Cents says:

The meaning of this common expression used to tease children is lost in cultural interpretation. The Tibetan joke "Che le sa” translates to “Eat my tongue”, in Dali's broken English uses the wrong word "suck". When a child asks for a candy, the elderly replies I’ve given you everything so the only thing left is for you to "eat my tongue”.

Get woke go broke says:

Sick bastard.

Isabel says:

Why does he apologise if he did nothing wrong?he obviously did and know it. Hes just a pervert, dragon in sheep clothing
