Holocaust survivor busted for stealing neighbor's tangerines.
Edited on Thu Dec-20-07 03:28 PM by ohiosmith
SPRING HILL - While mulling over a half-completed jigsaw puzzle in her den on Monday, Ruth Snow glanced up to see one of her neighbors ambling over to the tangerine tree in her backyard.

Finally, her waning patience had borne some considerable fruit.

Snow wasted little time before calling the Hernando County Sheriff's Office, turning a long-running dispute between next-door neighbors into a case on the local court docket.

Italo Tomaselli, 80, now faces a misdemeanor charge of theft for allegedly swiping a few tangerines from Snow's tree.

6. What a stupid dispute
She doesn't want to build a fence but she spent $2000 to cut down trees. Which right there is a :wtf:

He "sees hunger" and can't stand to see waste - but it doesn't sound like he's giving tangerines to hungry people - evidently the hunger he sees is his own.

Playing the "holocaust survivor" card to justify irritating your neighbor is lame.

Being irritated to that extent by someone picking your fruit is lame.

Both these people are childish assholes.
