Squatters take over 1,200 homes in Atlanta, open illegal strip clubs and terrorize neighbors: ‘Is this even America?’

Squatters are ruining entire neighborhoods in Atlanta and police response to evict is so slow, some homeowners have resorted to paying nuisances to leave. Brazen squatters even opened an illegal strip club on a property they had taken over — one of the 1,200 homes which has been squatted in the city, according to the National Rental Home Council (NRHC) trade group.

“I’d be terrified in Atlanta to lease out one of my properties,” Matt Urbanski, who manages a local home-cleaning company, told Bloomberg.

Urbanski’s company cleans out homes for corporate landlords, and in some cases has to remove squatters’ possessions. Recently one of his employees was shot after attempting to remove intruders from a property.

This is Joe Biden’s America, where laws don’t matter unless you’re a MAGA protester.

Squatters are simply another type of home invader, and should be dealt with as such. They should be shot if they do not leave when demanded to do so. They are attempting to steal EVERYTHING from another person, including theirmost basic needs of shelter, water, food and security, and of course all their higher level needs avove their basic ones.

They should be shot. All squatters who try to take over someone’s home and property. Shot.

It’s amazing to me that some owners haven’t just cleared the house shooting everyone and claim home invasion.

We’ve had a similar problem in my town of 70,000 ppl outside Phoenix. Teens and young adults have been breaking into spec homes at night and having parties. They make flyers in advance and also use apps to put out the word. The audacity of kids nowadays who think nothing of stealing just blows my mind.

Just another reason I will never live in or near a large city. Ever.

We are not to the point of 12-gauge evictions yet, but it won’t take much longer.
