Not really ridiculous at all.  John Paul II was shot and very nearly killed in the heart of Catholicdom (St Peter's Square) by lunatic Turkish muslim Mehmet Ali Agca. Gandhi was shot and killed by Nathuram Godse, a fellow Hindu.  Anwar Sadat was shot to pieces by fellow Muslims in the middle of Cairo.  Yitzhak Rabin was gunned down on the steps of City Hall in downtown Tel Aviv by - you guessed it - a Jewish assassin.

It seems pretty dangerous to go out among the faithful.  Popemobiles seem like a good idea.
