    That I can explain.  They were Hondurans so calling the cops wasn't a good option for them.

    Assuming you want a largely anglophone city, I would place it on the west coast of Lake Superior.  It's an appropriately named Great Lake for a superhero city and that way you can have a dock district.

    Never bring a gun to a swordfight.  
     
    Don't fly higher than you can fall.
     
    Terminal velocity is your friend.
     
    Growth is the amazing power to make yourself an easy target.
     
    Never call someone "dead" until you finish the autopsy.
     
    Being dead doesn't necessarily stop people from making trouble
     
    There is no idea so stupid that it can't be used to hurt people.
     
    You can't mass produce awesome.  
     
    Always make your capes detachable.
     
    Always know which walls are load-bearing.

    This is not an artefact of bad translation.  Magical Penis Wine is exactly what it sounds like.  A rice wine that contains penis, specifically seal, dog and deer penis for the alleged medical benefits thereof.  One guess what medical condition it is primarily intended to treat.

    It would be kind of difficult for black people to say they "agree" with a white supremacist slogan even if the sentiment is unobjectionable when taken strictly at face value.

    Did you ever watch the pilot episode for the new Hawaii Five-Oh? In it the governor of Hawaii decides to a create a police unit unhampered by things that get in the way of results. No red tape, no rules, no respect for civil rights. Just kicking ass and naming names. Getting the bad guys no matter what it takes.
     
    In short an adolescent power fantasy that only a moron who confuses real life with Mel Gibson movies would think would produce good results if they tried it in real life. Newsflash. People try it in real life. They take the most aggressive cops, give them a badass backronym like SCORPION or STRESS, tell them they’re “elite” even though they actually have no special training just special latitude. They encourage the unit to prioritise maximizing the number of suspects they take down over worrying about proper procedure, put them on constant patrol in the most crime ridden areas, encourage them to think of everyone around them not as people to be protected but enemies to be suppressed and make maximizing their number of busts per week the priority while ignoring the misconduct complaints.
     
    And then wait for the inevitable results.
