Don't use my name

In Polish we say: don`t wipe your mugs (faces) with .........

A good example of the usage:
J Kaczynski said: don`t wipe your trecherous mugs with my late brother`s name!

In Jamaica we say: "Don't use my name with yours", only using patois. :-)

In Jamaica we say:

Novi said they have a high intentional homicide rate in Jamaica. Be careful.
PS. Unless you are one of those thugs who do it.
