Meet Jeffrey Scott.
The 32-year-old “Occupy Pensacola” protester was arrested yesterday on felony burglary and larceny charges for allegedly robbing a neighbor’s home of furniture that he used at the protest group’s encampment outside City Hall.
Scott was nabbed shortly after victim Ned English called police to report the theft of a couch, a recliner, four wicker chairs, and four couch cushions from his home, according to an Escambia County Sheriff’s Office report.
When questioned by a deputy, Scott stated, “Yes, I took the furniture. I was going to give it back, but haven’t had a chance to.” Scott, investigators noted, admitted entering English’s home through a rear window, taking the furniture, and using some of the purloined items “at the Occupy Pensacola Camp located at City Hall.”
Scott, pictured in the above mug shot, is being held in lieu of $20,000 bond in the county jail. Arrest records list the Virginia native's occupation as "nutritional aid."
Who would want the furniture back? I doubt it would be very clean.
Synthesis: This is my furniture.
Antithesis: This is my furniture.
Synthesis: This is our furniture.
See how marxism works?

He will probably get off.
Example: A neighbor of ours fired a contractor who was renovating her home, because he was stealing money. He then returned to her house the following night with a truck and loaded up everything moveable, including the kitchen sink (really, along with the counter) and even every lightbulb in the house.
In court, his lawyer argued that there was no evidence that the thief did not intend to return the pilfered items, and he was let off. None of the stolen items was ever returned.
This is the way the courts operate these days (at least here in NJ).
Ah, yes. The tried and true "I didn't steal it, I was just borrowing it" defense.
I have some lead in 40 grain containers. I will be more than happy to give him all he wants of it.
Does he smoke Tarryton? (sp?)
Ah, my mistake, for some reason I thought you were over there. Jax area?
Well that jogged my memory.
