Yesterday, Rome's gladiators and centurions rose up as the republic's new law enforcement officials, the police, attempted to separate them from their beloved colosseum.
(Actually, that is a rather rough crowd of ex-cons and gangish types. a few months ago there was a skirmish among them. One gladiator pulled out a real knife and stabbed another for invading his territory. But I like them. The niche serves as a career opportunity for men coming out of prison. I am sorry to see them go. poor fellows)
