Oh my ears and whiskers! You couldn't have him in the typical knighthood
pose! That would insinuate that there might be a higher power. Worse yet,
something with a Cross in it. If he had been in a tee shirt and jeans and a
completely harmless baseball bat over his shoulder no one would have thought
twice, well except for people who have been injured by someone using a baton
or baseball bat on them as a weapon.
