And a huge brickbat to "Law & Order SVU."

Fin just shot a guy in the shoulder and told him it was a flesh wound. Really? There is no such thing as a flesh wound right by the collarbone or anywhere else. This is where people get this ridiculous idea.

It's a TV show about cops from people who know nothing about cops.

People are given the wrong impression about many aspects of law enforcement.

Law and Order, CSI, NCIS are the most ridiculous shows on TV.

I think Ben Cartwright got a "flesh wound" about once a season.

But I did find a graph showing that the use of the word "brickbat" has increased since 2010, reversing a 150 year decline.

Maybe you're partly responsible for that, so congratulations or shame on you, whatever's fair.

And speaking of flesh wounds, they do so exist:
