The anti-squatting law just enacted in Florida was passed with the unanimous support of the Democrats in the legislature, alongside the Republicans.

Squatting: so nasty that even the Florida Communists couldn’t ignore it.

... experts say Good luck getting them out ...

Obviously the ‘experts’ are not outside-the-box thinkers. A few good ol’ boys with axe handles and bats as primary stimulants with wheel guns as backup should be all that is necessary to effect vermin eviction. I would not be surprised to soon find a few links to eviction services like these on the dark web.

I understand there is growing concern because there are a lot of vacant/unoccupied commercial buildings in NYC. Squatting would boost occupancy.

And Bob’s your uncle...

There’s plenty of gangs out there that are violent. What I see happening is illegal immigrants from one ethnic group will be moved into areas of NYC dominated by another ethnic group.

It will be inevitable that different ethnic groups will begin to fight each other, when these group have criminal elements in them the criminals will begin to fight each other over turf.

I’ve read a couple of articles recently that different groups from Africa that were fighting in Africa have come to the USA and continued the fighting here.

Mayor Adams wont do zilch about them.....he likes squatters.

They solve his problem about what to do with all those illegals Biden’s sending him.

And he’ll make sure they vote......ought to be good for a high-pay no-show federal job.

It’s going to come down to that again, locals will begin to take matters into their own hands when people start getting injured, no one will know what that happened.

And leftists will decry and condemn it as *vigilante justice*.

Tough beans.

It's theft, plain and simple, and if the government isn't going to protect the people it is supposed to be serving but rather protects the criminals, then they should not be surprised at the result.

At this point, the government itself becomes the cartel, the criminal organization, and should be dealt with appropriately.

So much for our representatives representing the people who voted for them.

Then again, they are representing the people who installed them in office.

Someone or some liberal organization is providing them with legal and practical help. The illegal squatters are getting help from some ultra liberal group.

I have my own judge to settle with any squatters who want my house. I’ll give them a reason to have to squat for years.

Now the squatters should focus on empty commercial properties owned by big democrat donors!

A backlog of housing court cases and changes in the law in recent years have made it a bigger and longer-lasting headache for landlords property owners to boot unwelcome tenants trespassers.

The Left wins debates by changing the language of the debate. Don’t let them.

How come the New Yawk water buffalo, Letitia James isn’t going after these squatters. She is supposed to be the best lawman east of the O.K. Corral.

LOL
Constables On Patrol are NOT your friend.
They absolutely WILL follow “some liberal B/S law”. Its their job to. They don’t make the laws, their not supposed to break the laws, either. You are talking about a city council problem.
I don’t like it any more than you do but that is reality.

Write yourself a lease. Change the locks. Install cameras in EVERY room. Move in. Eat their food. Flush their weed. Play loud music when they sleep. Invite obnoxious friends over. Stare at them constantly.

Yes, counter squat. You will have more rights as a squatter than you will as an owner.
