You Didn't Think This Squatter Situation Just Appeared Out of Nowhere, Did You?

Private property isn't so private anymore. When normal Americans weren't looking, squatters became cult heroes. The left has been cultivating squatters' rights for years. Woke cities are giving them legal backup by consolidating COVID-19-era no-eviction rules into free housing for months or years. People seeking their piece of the American Dream are now the stars of the left's dystopian horror show.

The property takeovers are all over the country in the nation's woke cities. The stories are legion.

"The homeowner wouldn't talk with us on camera for fear of retaliation from those living on the property. When he asked them to leave they beat him up sending him to the hospital," a Portland, Ore., TV reporter explained in 2022 after squatters took over a man's home while he was away. "He hasn't been back since but still pays $1,500 a month for the mortgage."

Nothing a handful of lampposts won’t fix.

I dodged a bullet on this one. Had a caregiver who I really liked who was helping me take care of my FIL. She was very good at that. Anyway, she had a period where her lease was up and she had a month before her new apartment was ready so I was going to let her live in my camper.

Later, I overheard her bragging about a friend who was a squatter and was able to live for years for free. I rescinded the offer making some excuse. Later, she tried to re-cash several caregiving checks. It was about $2000 total. Fortunately, I got the amounts reversed by the bank.

Just awful times we live in. Taking advantage of people whose father was dying in hospice. We really have a lot of sociopaths running around these days. 😞

The govt doesn’t want the citizens to have the right to defend them homes, property and lives...so citizens fear the bigger criminals behind the criminals.

“Maybe. But remember, the US courts apply one set of laws to them and an entirely different set of laws to us.”

Yep. Watch what happens when they try that at a Martha’s Vineyard vacation home.

I was thinking the same thing. After gushes, hugs, and elaborate displays of affection and solidarity, the jettisoned those deadbeats outta there in record time!

I too wonder who the homeowners voted for in these blue cities. I think I know.

Unwelcome Squatters!: This sounds like a business opportunity:

He will squat with your squatters until they leave.

“The law, passed unanimously by the legislature, doesn’t go into effect until July 1. Not sure why the delay.”

My wife comes from Snow Bird country and her two remaining siblings are in their southern winter quarters and will return about 1 April.
