She assumed, like most Americans, that her property would be safe.
Just my opinion, but what the hell do I know?
I don’t think MOST Americans believe their things are safe.
What has happened is the schools and society and politicians have created an entire generation that believes they deserve whatever they want. They believe if you’re not using it, they should be able to take it.
I can understand her wanting to be in Ft. Hood for support or whatever. What I don’t understand is family, friends or townsfolk not noticing someone moving into these peoples’ home. This happened in a small community. The local police should have noticed.
A lot of it in Texas is because of THIS Alinskyite duckweed: Check out this link: Scum Sucking Liberal A-Hole gets hoisted on his own petard as he is evicted from property he "legally" stole...
It is all related, I am willing to bet, to the common law of adverse possession, which this guy is making a living encouraging people to exploit.
There have been a rash of these things in Texas, people going away on two week trips to come home and find their house occupied, things like that.
