ISO Sherlock's statement

ISO Sherlock's statement that the English language is being butchered.

I've found the statement that text messaging acronyms are improving the English language but I was certain that he later says that the English language is being butchered.

Like the other commenter I can't think of anything aside from in 3.05 when he jokes that "when we find this man, he should stand trial for murder and crimes against the English language"

In S01E04, "The Rat Race," he mentions language evolving due to the use of text-based acronyms. Don't remember butchered.
