Simple. If someone like me saw the Godfather, the Baby Jesus, or the High Priest of the Church of the Painful Truth being assaulted by one of you morons, we'd jump in and stomp the ever-living shit out of you.
Although, I'm sure their bodyguards just look for a reason to do it anyway. As for the "Priest", Boortz, although he's about 64, he's very fit, 6'4", and a black belt. I'd LOVE to see THAT train wreck.
