Heh. Took me a minute to figure out what this thread was about. The homicide Fox-ism bugged me long ago so I added a filter to my proxy that changes it back to 'suicide'. Weird phrasing variations get through on occassion but the mosquito is mostly banished.
For me the homicide wording is more confusing than helpful. I stop and think about the politics instead of the terrible act.
