Are the Swiss Guards like the Secret Service in which they will “take a bullet” even if the Pope or President is a freaking moron who loves those who wish to murder him? I am getting more worried by the day of the rhetoric of violence and threat of death. Why is there no push back?We as free people are being absolutely terrorized without a physical act of terror. It has become the new normal as opposed to something that should cause outrage and extreme retaliatory response.

That’s how they got the job. May 6, 1527, defending the Pope against the Holy Roman Emperor.
