"Each year, Santa Claus and his team of elves and reindeers stay awake for days and nights so he can deliver presents to children all over the world for Christmas,"
"But he could be putting his and their health at risk."
After getting a warning from physicists, Santa has now had his card marked by doctors: sleep deprivation and the temptations of booze laid out by grateful families could turn him into a public menace.
"Lack of sleep will make him drowsy, his vigilance will fade and his ability to think and remember will diminish. There is a risk for himself and others -- he could fall asleep at the reins and crash his sleigh."

I hate to break it to you kiddo, but Santa Clause, he isn't really real. Santa was just a lie told to you by your parents to make you behave. Presents? Your parents went to the store like millions of other parents and bought your presents.
Thus, none of the "attacks on Santa" matter because the attacks are against a fictional character.

I assume this is all in jest because it is funny!
A little humor goes along way these days.
Man in Santa Hat Pulls Off St. Nicholas Bank Heist
Talk about tarnishing St. Nick's name. An armed man in a Santa Claus hat held up a Jacksonville, Fla., bank on Dec. 6 -- in a neighborhood fittingly named St. Nicholas.
