Well, that's not true, because Adverse Possession i.e. squatter's rights goes back to the early Middle Ages. Now, they may have added, and they may practice it different today. See San Francisco.
Next up: Home Invaders’ Rights.
Exactly. two or three rounds center of mass will get the message across in such a way that they won’t try anything further.
I had a tenant at a property that I bought who, upon contacting him to arrange for rent payment, told me he ain’t paying me because he didn’t have a lease with me, and ain’t paying the former landlord because he didn’t own it any more, and it would take me six months to get him in eviction court.
My reaction, “Lock and load, a**hole, last one standing wins” set off a chain of events that did turn out in my favor, but only because I had taped the phone call where he admitted he wasn’t going to pay anyone rent.
There’s an old saying...”A Smith and Wesson beats four aces.” My Smith 459 got all kinds of attention...

IF IT IS GRAND THEFT AUTO to take your car-—
WHY ISN’T IT GRAND THEFT PROPERTY TO TRY & SQUAT???
There is NO difference between a squatter and a non-paying tenant, as this idiot author claims.
Incorrect Un-Reason.
It is not and it is happening more often now.
The police arrest you and take any cash you have on you because they think you may have gotten it illegally.
In some places, the courts may give you a leeway if you were a tenant.
In the former case, I can see LEOs saying, "look, go to court and get papers" and in the latter case, LEOs dragging the trespassers out into the street so you don't shoot them first.
Well — until they actually are arrested for their crime they will just keep doing it. Moving from one property to the other.
Some guy tried to squat in my dorm room.
I threw him out.
No, there is no difference.
Property can be vacant for a number of legitimate reasons nor is there any way of telling how long it’s been vacant for.
Besides, just cause it’s vacant at the moment, is NO excuse ever to steal it.
Would you feel that way if it were YOUR property? Or your car? Well, nobody was driving it at the moment so I took it.
My sympathy to owners who rent out a property. My relatives had problems with their tenants who trashed the property out of spite after being legally evicted. Poop everywhere. My relatives decided to sell that house and never rely on rental income again. The new owners have been responsible neighbors for many years.
I cannot fathom why anyone would want to rent any more.
