Another stupidly worded headline.
ReplyDeletePlease tell us how it should be worded
DeleteMaybe something more to the fact that Delaware Police shoot armed subject... The person being 16 has nothing to do with it. The title leaves questions, as in did the police shoot an innocent bystander 16 year old...
DeleteGod Bless our State and Local Police !!!Ray!!!
ReplyDeleteAnd the story isn't much better:
ReplyDelete"They said the 16-year-old was killed when he and the trooper exchanged gunfire. The boy died after being taken to an area hospital."
You're not killed until you're dead.
And you are not dead until being pronounced dead, even if not breathing. Lol
ReplyDeleteStop being so damn picky with it. Is it "your" or "you're" English major. We get the idea.
Sounds good to me.
ReplyDelete5:46 are you ever happy about anything or do you go thru life just knowing you are perfect and everyone else is stupid?
ReplyDeleteOne less thug wanna be to worry about....Job well done Trooper..!!
ReplyDelete7:09- You're given someone crap for using "You're" correctly? That's just dumb and shows what a troll you are.
ReplyDeleteSince everyone is harping on the wording. How about if the story stated "Gene Pool is cleaner as a result". Would that make sense to the Grammar Police ? No pun intended ?Ray?
