I am not an American and I have never claimed to be one. As I wrote it, "we" refers to those who published the poster, not to me.
As I said, that's nonsensical. When referring to another individual or group, I'm partial to using the pronoun "they."
Was that supposed to pass for performance art? An attempt at a Mooresian (Mooresque?), satirical narration?
I assumed that was self-evident.
You assumed that writing in the first person would be "self-evident" as having been intended to express a third person point-of-view?
Really?
Usually when posters of "wanted" people are put up there has been an investigation.
No, not necessarily. Often, people on those lists are "wanted" for questioning; that is to say, an investigation is either beginning or underway, but not complete.
However, I accept that the FBI may well put up posters of just anyone. As an American, you would know far better than me if that was indeed so.
I would, you are correct. Thankfully, that's not the case and frankly, it's a patently absurd idea.
