“home robbed”
Burglarized, unless they took the thing bodily from him.

Oh brother where art thou? We be bustin’ up some dudes house while the cops are watchin’ for trouble at somebody’s funeral. Got to love the free enterprise. But I suspect Desmond will forgive them.

I feel great Schadenfreude. I hope they got EVERYTHING. Couldn’t happen to a more deserving individual.

Ah well. I don’t run the AP, otherwise I’d hire proofreaders and fire the liberal spinmeisters.

To: Olog-hai
Wait.
Was he at Mandela's funeral or was he asleep inside the house at the time?
Who writes these headlines? The same guy who faked doing sign language at the funeral?

He was asleep in his house back in August, which was the last time he got burglarized.

What???
Now I'm really confused.
Forget it. It's The Ape Pee. I doubt if any aspect of this story is true.
Including the words "and" and "the".

Burglaries, robberies, street crime...are all OUT OF CONTROL in that country. Gated communities and private security forces are their growth industries.
This story kind of reminds me of Rosa Parks in her later years. She would make the local Detroit news once every few months for being a crime victim.
To: Olog-hai
Robbers who use funerals to pick their targets are a very low order of scum, down on the bottom with whale$hit IMHO. No respect.
