Off topic. Good Lord, is "Awr Hawkins" a real human? How did Awr get promoted out of fifth grade?
* "...who managed 'broke into a home'"
* "...the homeowner retrieve a handgun"
* "Police then set up a parameter around the neighbor..."

Every day I'm seeing such horrible writing. Is this AI at work? Incompetent writers? Every editor has been fired?

The Daily Planet's Editor-in-Chief Perry White is rolling in his grave. "Hawkins, pack up your desk and get out. YOU'RE FIRED!"

Waiting for a ‘George Floyd’ response on behalf of the poor innocent now deceased perp.

C’mon man! English is no longer the primary language in Gavin Gruesome’s New Kalifornia. You can’t expect (especially from journalists) grammar or sense.

Notice they refer to “alleged intruders” even though the cops found one still at the scene bleeding but breathing. Tagline applies (as usual).

In a graduate school paper I misspelled a common word. The prof made a little fun of me.

I remember my reaction. “Nobody ever corrected me in all those years.”

Those are words I still reflect on.

We might say people are ignorant because they didn’t learn even though taught. But there are situations where people want to learn and are not taught.

So always take time to teach and correct even if there are many who don’t want to learn. One out of a hundred you will connect with and change the world.

Now teaching is an art, it can be learned. sometimes it is gentile, humorous, repetitive, etc. My tool of trade too often is a 2x4.

“Setting up a perimeter” means they have formed a secured zone where everything going in or out is checked. It is a very common term and I’m surprised you’ve not heard it in this context. The “parameter” thing is just laziness or ignorance on the writer’s part, with a lack of editorial oversight contributing to the confusion.

I worked closely with our oldest daughter in high school on her writing. I would catch and mark every single grammatical, spelling and punctuation error. I was pleasantly surprised she enjoyed and appreciated the coaching and worked hard to improve so that Dad would no longer find errors. She improved markedly and is doing very well professionally now in her late 30s.

“Investigators believe three masked men tried to break into the home”


Where was “Kemosabe” (”One who is white.”)

And where are The Masked Men’s white horses?

Well, if his middle name is Jim, perhaps he's the reincarnation of Long John Silver.

That gun was suppose to be under lock and key. When I was living in Hawaii some jerk even demanded all guns be stored at the police station.

The homeowner will be charged and arrested or at least sued for violating the precious intruder’s civil rights.

LOL That’s even better! Methinks I could use some remedial reading, as I missed that one.

People don’t like it if you tell them they are misusing or misspelling a word.
