I think the guy who made this is anti-Catholic and doesn't speak or understand Italian (which is the language the pope spoke in when he made the statement) and hadn't bothered to understand the translation accurately and would rather make the assumption that the Pope said Jesus was a sinner. For him it's NOT about trying to accurately understand what the Pope was saying, but trying to prove the Catholic Church wrong by taking the translation of one line out of context and ignoring everything else the pope has said (which is what makes him anti-Catholic). It also goes against Christ's teachings of judging others.
If he understood Italian he would realize that the Pope did not claim Jesus was a sinner. “Italian is my mother tongue and the translation from Italian to English is somewhat misleading and erroneous. The sentence is written in the conditional, so what Pope Francis said is ‘might have had’ then also ‘scusa’ is not used when asking for forgiveness. It’s what you say when you accidentally bump into someone or step on their toes or any minor action that might have been misinterpreted. The word we use for forgiveness is ‘perdono.’” Sometimes we hurt someone’s feelings, not intending to at all, and say, “I’m sorry; please forgive me,” without this necessarily meaning that we did anything wrong." (http://www.themichigancatholic.org/2016/01/did-pop... )
The pope has also specifically said on at least 3 recent occasions that Jesus is without sin:
“The Letter to the Hebrews makes this clear by presenting Jesus as the high priest who completely shares our human condition, with the exception of sin: ‘We do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who in every respect has been tested as we are, yet without sin’ (4:15) … he is without sin …” (Oct. 18, 2015).
“… Christ, who was just and without sin …” (Feb. 18, 2015).
“[Christ] is like us in everything. In everything but sin, for he was not a sinner” (Jan. 17, 2015).
So again, the video is the rantings of an anti-Catholic breaking God's commandment against bearing false witness and Christ's teachings about jusging others (judging the pope based on what he personally thinks the pope said rather then understanding what the pope actually said).

A person can know with certainty the Catholic Faith is the One True Faith if they recite daily and with care the angelic psalter of the great Mother of God, Mary most holy.
