Editors? We don't need no steenking editors!

Um, dude, I think the word you're actually looking for is rummaged...

FBI agents in blue gloves recently converged on a single-story brick mosque on the rural outskirts of town here and pillaged through the giant green trash bin outside in search of evidence.

Um, I could be wrong, but I kind of doubt the FBI agents stripped the dumpster "ruthlessly of money or goods by open violence, as in war."

3 "retrieved"

These people are graduates of the college of english.

I have a CRAPTON of pet peeves.

If you are a normal person, you can bastardize the language all you please, that's called vernacular, or colloquialisms, but when it's your job and your MAJOR that cost more than I've made in any two years, (more like three) then you have no excuse.

You are either retarded, or deliberately using words and the common understanding to LIE.

4 These people are graduates of the college of english.

To be fair to those of us who have a BA in English, the writer may have actually gone to Journalism School.

7 But you are right Sean. Most of my pet peeves when it comes to the language were learned by various people with BA's. All chicks who liked to correct me after I taught them a thing or two if you know what I mean what I mean.
