Have you noticed how they've taken a word that means one thing 'mural' and applied it to another thing? street graffiti ≠ mural

The King’s English is dead. Murdered by the left.

Words mean what the left says they do when they say them.

Thank you. I thought I was the only one noticing that misuse of a term.

The letter may have been more effective if they had used the proper term “forum” instead of the plural, “fora.” Reading the singular article with the plural subject (“a fora”) really made me cringe, and distracted from the intended irony of the request.
