Cop Seeks Wiretapping Charges For Woman Who Videotaped Beating
An anonymous reader writes "A police officer who was disciplined for his role in the beating of a Massachusetts man (many broken bones in his face and permanent partial blindness) is looking to bring criminal wiretapping charges against the woman who caught much of the incident on video. The officer received a 45-day suspension for the beating. He does not appear to deny anything that happened in the video, but he apparently thinks it shouldn't have been filmed."
The idiom is "Moot point", not mute point.
I think you may have missed the many misspellings of idioms in this thread:
"Case and point" instead of "case in point"
"For all intensive purposes" instead of "for all intent and purposes"
"doggy-dog world" instead of "dog eat dog world"
"hand-and-hand" instead of "hand in hand"
"undermind" instead of "undermined"
"mute point" instead of "moot point"
"Irregardless" instead of ???
I still maintain that "irregardless" is a word... :(
BSD is for people who love Unix, Linux is for people who hate Microsoft.
Ir- as a prefix is a negative, -less as a suffix is a negative.
So irregardless has a built in double negative, and would mean the same thing as regard would. Regardless means without regard. Irresponsible means not responsibility.
While it could be considered a word simply because people use it, it ain't a proper word. Though some people are irresponsibleless when it comes to word usage.
Anyway, to finish that last one, it's "Irregardless" instead of "regardless" you're looking for.
This is not the funny you're looking for.
Was that a play on the word "there" instead of "their", you sly devil you?
