I'm reading an article called ""Drinking Age Has Simply Got to Go," Say Campus Riots" by Pamela White.
I have one question.
"Not surprisingly, police were frustrated and impatient. They'd tried the kid glove approach and had found a gauntlet dropped in their laps. The students were foul mouthed and furious."
Is the underlined phrase a idiomatic expression?
or Can i just interpret it literally?
