I find a spotlight with a handle more comfortable for long term holding and also shining from a vehicle than a flashlight, and the focused distance is just better due to the depth of the reflector.
I just saw a video of them throwing a bucket of water on a Mr D driver in a motorcycle causing him to fall over/crash, another of them opening car doors and throwing in buckets of water (and one of the celebrants stealing a laptop from the back seat) and more.
He also talked about March and March movement. Are the people that have an issue with the headline mentioning only 1 party going to take it up with Newsday?
I have an older version of this and it does throw a nice beam for quite a distance:
