Florida Governor Puts Stop To Squatters!!!

Governor Desantis is doing what every state should have already done. Squatting is 100% illegal and we shouldn't need a court order to remove someone attempting to steal our property (or the use thereof). Let's hope the country's pendulum will swing back toward law and order.

Yes, that is how it should be - can't believe we're even having this conversation, right?

Saw a story on a New York Landlord who removed the squatters and changed the locks. The police were called and she (the landlord) was taken away in cuffs...

Unbelievable what is going on....

Do a search for squatter stories in the news and you'll find a ton. Those are only the ones reported on. Just imagine how many vacant homes have squatters and the owners don't even know. It's out of control, just like looters stealing $900 worth of merchandise from a store with no repercussions. Our entire justice system is falling apart.

@Nathan Gesner

I am waiting for people to start creating fake car leases and run around stealing cars. Oh I have a lease so it’s a civil matter…..
