Batman Solution

"The Batman Solution" is code for an act of swift and shadowy violent vigilantism against a perpetrator of a crime or wrong that the law is insufficient or unable to deal with. The severe beat down of the perp results in society's collective satisfaction.

"Wow, did you hear what Joe Blow did to his girlfriend's little kids?"

"Yeah, but the cops let him off. Time for the Batman Solution".

Beat the Protestant

The exact same schoolyard game as "kill the guy with the ball" (aka "Smear The Queer"), only the name is changed when played at Catholic schools. A comical way of encouraging a bygone era of sectarian rivalry in Christiandom via youthful bravado. Especially popular in Irish communities. Has NOTHING to do with anti-LGBT bigotry.

Hey Bill, want to play Beat the Protestant with us?

Sure! Just make sure the mother superior doesn't see us rough housing.
