    Lotters? Is this some vernacular I’m unfamiliar with?

      They attempted to write “Loiters* will be shot* on sight”.

        Or “Looters” Or “Lawyers” Or “Losers” Or maybe it really is “L’Otters”. Those radical left rascals causing mayhem and dissection in the workers.

        Wouldn’t it be loiterers?

          Yes, but we don’t know if that’s what they wanted to write. But in that case, maybe they also wanted to write “shoot” and not “shot”, so yeah, fair point.

          And wouldn’t it be shooted?

          That’s what they tried to write, but to be lexically correct it should be “loiterers”.
