MLK, Jr, vs. Martha of Bethany
Anne vs Oscar Romero
Finals: MLK, Jr. v. Anne

assault weapons?
St. Barbara is the patroness of artillerymen, fireworks manufacturers, firemen, stone masons, against sudden death, against fires, and against storms (especially lightning storms). She is usually depicted in art standing next to or holding the tower in which she was imprisoned, with a chalice, the palm of martyrdom, a feather, and/or a cannon

martyrdom probably could have been avoided.
