"The woman, said to be mentally unstable, managed to grab him by his vestments near the neck area as a security guard tried to overwhelm her."

There was no need for saying the mentally unstable bit once the sentence started with "The woman".

[rykard]

I wasn't too impressed with the body guards.... he needs tacking practice.a ala Terry Tate office line backer

Shooting nazis used to be considered good form. It's terrible how things change.

Have the Italians shut the mental homes recently? Seems to be a lot of them roaming the streets at the moment.

"French Cardinal Roger Etchegaray, 87, was standing a few metres away and fell and broke his hip during the incident."

Sorry, but something about this (seemingly) geriatric Roman Catholic heir-achy, falling over and breaking themselves just seems amusing in a (wrong) Pythonic way.

And she tried the exactly same thing at exactly the same time last year, dressed exactly the same.

Great security your Popiness The Hole.
