This guy? How 'bout "this man"? Too many reruns of Law & Order on Sundance.
How 'bout you focus on the much larger point that someone was sexually assaulted...
Hope they find him soon and he gets a new life upstate
Scumbag!
How 'bout the cops realize someone was sexually assaulted and not use an informal word thus inappropriate, unprofessional language I would expect from the late great Jerry Orbach in an episode of Law & Order circa 1998? L&O was/is a show, this is real life.
Perhaps you should tell the Ninth Precinct to focus on the much larger point that this man is that, not a "guy."
"Guy" is a friendly word for a man thus an inappropriate word to use in a flyer calling for people to locate a man who tried to rape a woman.
"A man is wanted for attempted rape in the East Village tonight."
"A guy is wanted for attempted rape in the East Village tonight."
Read each sentence like a tv newscaster would and grow a brain if you think the second one is appropriate, so why would it be appropriate for people who are actually trying to catch the man to use that word?
Correction: Seventh Precinct, but I'm sure the Ninth would've called this lowlife a "guy", too.
Second correction: "guy" was used in the 7th Precinct's Twitter not the flyer which is worse because way more people see that tweet than that flyer.
