Why could dealey plaza be described as an 'ideal' place for an assassination?
Dealey can be described as ideal for assassination because it is one of few places in Dallas where the road is out in the open (no buildings inside the plaza) but there are many sheltered areas and buildings surrounding it, making it possible to set up sniper teams with very close shots who would not be noticed, and would also not be obstructed by other buildings. If one goes around the plaza, they will find that the Texas School Book Depository, the Dallas County Records Building, the north and south knolls, the triple overpass, and the picket fence are all places with ideal shots at a car traveling through the plaza.

Was Prince Albert wounded during an assassination attempt on Queen Victoria?
No, he died from illness at a fairly young age. As far as I know, nobody ever protected Queen Victoria from an imminent firearm attack.
-------------There was an attempt on her life made by Edward Oxford, an eighteen year old, who, using two pistols, fired twice at the Queen while she and Prince Albert were riding past in a carriage in Constitution Hill.
The Times reported the incident on the 11 June, 1840 (page 4), and although reading the article it seems the prince did protect Queen Victoria, he did not get shot as both bullets were recovered one from a nearby tree and one from a wall.
