Well, if you fry Okra up just right, it does give you a warm, blissful feeling when you eat it . . . .

If they’re raiding okra fields in Georgia, they’re gonna be quite busy.

Since it is Jeoh-jia, I bet somebody’s uncle has a restaurant that has a need for a fresh crop of okra to add to the batter and fry.

I, also bet, that this was a ‘swat phone call’ by a jealous neighbor!

At least the Georgia cops ended up apologizing to the man for their mistake. To me that’s the more remarkable aspect of the story because lately it seems most of these stories like this end up with an innocent person terrorized, wrongfully jailed, or even outright murdered.
