Burglary Suspect Busted After Yard Sale

(AP)  Police say an Ocala man was selling stolen property at a yard sale in the same neighborhood as the home he robbed.

Fred and Betty McAteers, who live in Ocklawaha, arrived at a home they own in Ocala on Monday to find that it had been burglarized. They returned Tuesday and walked around the neighborhood to see if anyone knew anything about the theft. During their walk, they saw their dresser sitting on the front lawn of an apartment building.

They called the police, who charged 22-year-old Branden Mitchell Gardiner with residential burglary and dealing in stolen property. He was being held on a $4,000 bond.

"Morons that are so obsessed in making the current president look bad because their party lost the last two elections."

Actually the DEM''s did very well in the last election preciusely because of all the loud-mouthed ignorant jerks on the web turned the independents out in droves--trying to do it again? Expecting different results this time? And to top it off your remark has nothing to do with the news story!
