You can just walk in there with your 200 lb. Ovcharka and sit there until they leave. People like that usually don’t like aggressive dogs. You don’t have to say a thing.

If you have asked people to leave and there is no rental contract or the rental contract has expired, they need to leave right now. That rental property is mine and somebody is stealing it. Period.
My fellow employees from India have told me that the way this works in India is that the landlord hires five big guys with baseball bats. The squatters usually clear out quickly.

Things like that don’t happen in my state, as we have had a strong “castle doctrine” and use of force law for many years that makes even the use lethal force easy to articulate against someone who has unlawfully entered a residence and doesn’t clear the hell out when told.
Who’s to say nay if you’re in your home and have to defend yourself? And no surviving witnesses of course. Oh, and find a tree for any lawmakers that don’t eliminate squatter protections.

In my state, NC, if they never had a right to occupy the property in the first place, they are not tenants, they are trespassers. You can legally physically force trespassers to leave your property using reasonable force. An old court case says that you have to use “gentle hands” to start. You just can’t use deadly force. Yes, I have removed trespassers like this before.
The problem comes if the police show up. Because it may be hard to determine whether the people ever had a tenancy, most of the time the cops will get lazy and instead of investigating that end of it they will punt and tell you it is a civil matter and that you have to go through the eviction process. They may even arrest you for throwing the trespasser out.
If they believe you, but feel sorry for the trespasser for some reason, they may try to get you to let them stay there for a short period of time to get their shit together. The problem is if you let them stay there, even for a minute, then you actually have created a verbal tenancy, and the cop is a witness to it, and then you will have to go to the eviction process.
Some trespassers will get a smart on and go get a driver’s license with the illegally possessed residence address on it. This also befuddles some cops, but if I went and got a driver’s license and put the governor’s mansion address on it, I still probably couldn’t call myself the governor or otherwise legitimately say that I lived there.
These people ought to be hung from a handy oak tree.

By granting legal rights to squatters, all the authorities are doing is undermining the rule of law and destroying the idea of property rights. The notion that there must be a “legal process” before an interloper and invader can be evicted is ridiculous on its face.
Remember, destruction of private property rights has been a core belief and goal of the communists for a very long time. And the globalists now share that vision, i.e., as evidenced by “You’ll own nothing and be happy”….

I wonder if a real, existing lease agreement to a supporting third party – “Harvey Schmertz,” an employee of Fred’s Anti-Squatting Service, Inc. – would suffice to provide legal deterrence, whether or not Harvey actually occupied the property.
“Occupation” could be established by having mail delivered to Harvey, a working phone at the property (limited to local calls only), car in the driveway, etc. A few bucks for a cheap lease might save a lot of legal fees, depending that on state’s laws; it’s possible the lessee might have to be the one pursuing eviction of an unauthorized tenant rather than the property owner (at which point the “several other miscellaneous services” clause in the contract with Fred’s might be activated….)
This is really one of those situations that have been completely screwed up by lawmakers and politics at many levels. We could probably do that in Florida or at least go in armed and tell them to get out – but I would have thought that was the case in Georgia, too.
The guy claimed he lived there. A simple statement for the police is, “show me the title, the lease, mortgage or something with your name on it.” Or simply, “prove it.”

To get into the house in the first place the criminal first had to “break in” by kicking in the front door (damaging the jamb, as said in the article), a B&E, which is a crime.
The cop on the scene should have arrested the criminal right on the spot and not have asked him what he is doing there as it is irrelevant.
His presence in a home that has the front door kicked in is self explanatory.

You forget that cops are lazy, and its easier to say “It’s a civil matter,” then tell them they have to go through the eviction process than it is to do all of that paperwork.

I am fully convinced the reasons behind this even being somewhat tolerated is a subliminal or not very subliminal effort to make home ownership/property ownership so irritating for your average person (Not talking BlackRock or the mega owners) that folks just give up. It’s the clown world express where you can’t evict someone that just walks in your home and states it’s theirs now.

Why am I seeing so much of the “Where is your warrant?” bullshit on social media. Cops don’t need to show a warrant while arresting someone, especially not to anyone who demands to see it.
