  1. This law will be laughably ineffective. Okay, so tenant protections don't apply to squatters (bad term, as it applies to another legal issue entirely). How does the owner prove the occupants are squatters? You still have to take them to court.

  2. DO YOU REALLY WANT A COP TO HAVE THE POWER TO EVICT YOU FROM YOUR HOME

    ON THE WORD OF A LANDLORD THAT YOU ARE A SQUATTER AND NOT A TENANT????

    THE USUAL RUSE TO EVIT SOMEONE WITHOUT GOING TO COURT IS TO CLAIM VIOLENCE

    AND GET AN ORDER OF PROTECTION. THE TENANT NEVER GETS BACK INTO THE

    APARTMENT OR HOME. UNDER THE SQUATTERS LAW IN FLA YOU COULD EVICT YOUR

    MOTHER, FATHER, WIFE OR CHILD!!! THAT IS WHY REPUBLICANS, LANDLORDS AND

    HOCAL(GOV) ARE PUSHING FOR A FLA TYPE LAW IN NYS.

    FAKE NEWS: THIS IS JUST A PRETEXT TO EVICT TENANTS WITH OUT GOING TO COURT.

    THEIR IS NO BIG SQUATTER PROBLEM IN NYC. THIS IS JUST A WAY FOR LANDLORDS

    TO BYPASS THE COURTS AND EVICT TENANTS BY CLAIMING THEY ARE SQUATERS

  5. This is why the founding fathers wrote the following:

    Property: The Foundation of All Rights

    It is no accident that a nation conceived in liberty and dedicated to justice for all protects property rights. Property is the foundation of every right we have, including the right to be free. Every right claim, after all, is a claim to some thing — either a defensive claim to keep what one is holding or an offensive claim to something someone else is holding. John Locke, the philosophical father of the American Revolution and the inspiration for Thomas Jefferson when he drafted the Declaration of Independence, stated the issue simply: “Lives, Liberties, and Estates, which I call by the general Name, Property.” And James Madison, the principal author of the Constitution, echoed those thoughts when he wrote, “as a man is said to have a right to his property, he may be equally said to have a property in his rights.”

  6. Should be charge with criminal trespass and they don’t come out when told they should be charged with resisting arrest 30 days in jail and if there’s property damage amount owed should be for every 500 an extra 30 days and repeat offenders 2x everything and the end should be community service. They will think twice when they go cold turkey in jail…

  7. Having a "right to steal?????"

    Taking a property without paying tax on it is stealing from NY. Don't you lock up people for not paying taxes?

    I mean, I know you don't lock up people for murder. But stealing from the state?????

  8. I really dont get the US. If a person/company is renting there is always a lease. Which is a legal document. No legal document, no rights. This is actually an easy fix. Its called depending on where you live, if you are going to rent something out, you give a copy with your local city, district, country etc a copy of that lease. We have to file permits all the time, even to build a shed, so why not give a copy of rent lease for the property. Taking to court etc cuase more problems, as its lengthy and during that time those squatters are going to ruin and tear that house up.

  9. Squatters should be evicted and criminally charged, with civil liability for damages. Landlords who illegally evict legitimate tenants through the use of anti-squatter laws should be criminally charged. The Florida bill only allows for civil penalties for unscrupulous landlords.

  10. Squatters exploit legal loopholes of renter and tenant protection law. Since this is getting becoming a big deal, pretty soon going to see many many places, in the heat of the moment, reverse renter and protection laws. In this instance, they seem to going after the core problem of the term squatter but other places could easily just rework the laws entirely and evict rent control elderly people on to the street. Saw that happen to my grandma in her 90s, signed a contract to pay $500 a month in 75 and new building owners tried to kick her out for years. I am afraid of good people harm from this sudden uproar and sudden law changes. With a lot more corporations owning property and homes now, I can see them influencing people, media, and politicians to change laws to their benefit.

  11. They have no rights. They have no right from taking over somebody’s house that they paid with their blood, sweat, and tears. They are criminals that are trespassing. If they have no place, going somewhere that they don’t bother homeowners. Progressives who voted giving them rights should have squatters in their home and see how it feels when somebody invades your privacy by violating it.

  12. I don't know why it took this long for the loopholes to be closed. These people been getting away with murder squat. Ting and people's house taking things that don't belong to them. Trash and people's house and the law says you've got to give them time to get out. What world are we living in?
