I only have 3 years of high school Latin to recall from, so I end up digging into Wikipedia and asking my Classics-prof friends, but it’s always worth it in the end.

I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

You'd think they wouldn't have to shoot the dog since it carries them above bite range but it turns out they just want to do it with impunity

Would a Molotov cocktail be effective against this? 'Cos you know the pigs would want to try escalate things, and if/when the protestors eventually fight back they should have at least some semblance of a chance.
