gangster in red

You are fighting a gangster in red.

A gang member wearing red approaches you. He's carrying what appears to be a sling, which is an odd choice for a weapon. Maybe someone mugged him and took his gun.
Your opponent attacks ...

Hit messages:

• He hits you before you're reddy to block. Er, ready. Either way, it hurts.
• You read him his rights. The homograph fails to register, and he follows through on his attack.
• He slaps you twice, once on each cheek. Boy is your face red.

He hits you for X damage.

Critical hit message:

Your opponent has a critical hit! He hits you for X damage.

Miss messages:

• You quickly try to come up with a Grateful Dead parody, involving the line "trouble ahead, gangster in red. Superhero'd better watch your knee-ee-ees." The gangster is put off by your horrible rendition more than anything.
• He tries to slap you twice, and misses both times. Boy is his face red.
• You have his rights read to him. Confused that you might be a cop, he holds back.
