And so I don't like the way that this series of posts could be added up to mal-construe something that isn't true.
Does that mean I should delete them?
No.
That is a new legal term?
"What kind of evidence do you have to support your opinion?"
"Malconstrued evidence."
It is a little more emphatic that misconstrued.
And it takes into account a subtlety from the concept of contrived.
Why isn't it used as a legal term?
I believe it to be a great word!
It should be part of the English Language!
And indeed I could think of a lot more words that could benefit our American English Democracy!
