House Taken Over. . . .

According to Van Helsing at moonbattery.com:

Britons thinking of going away for vacation might want to reconsider. With liberal ideology having rotted society to the point that it no longer functions, who will defend your house while you're gone?

In the middle of completely refurbishing his five-bedroom house, Connan Gupta felt he deserved a week off.

It is a decision he is now regretting because 15 squatters took advantage of his short absence to occupy the £700,000 property.

The jobless Italians changed the locks and have taken up residence along with their three dogs and two cats.

They claim the fact they cannot afford to rent gives them the right to take over the Victorian property in Camberwell, South-East London.

Police are powerless to intervene because squatting is a civil rather than criminal offence.

Apparently trespassing and burglary are no longer considered offenses at all in the decomposing remnants of Once-Great Britain.

Gasps Gupta:

"It's as if the squatters have more rights than I do."

But of course they do. Property — the concept that makes civilization possible — is theft, according to progressives.

They have turned the front room into a sixth bedroom and are using Mr Gupta's wardrobes to store their clothes. They are also making use of his three leather sofas, sauna, hundreds of DVDs and television.

Under pure anarchy, Gupta could at least attempt to liberate his home by force. But liberalism is a hybrid of the worst aspects of anarchy and communism. The only good thing to be said about it is that nothing so obviously insane can last very long.

Here's what some bloggers had to say:

It is happening here in L.A. - A neighbor who owns a house but doesn't live in it has had squatters break in and refuse to leave. The police are VERY reluctant to do anything about it for fear of the city being sued.

These criminals have trashed a house, trespassed, broken and entered, stolen property AND WE ARE POWERLESS TO DO ANYTHING. (If it were my property, my Remington 870 would reverse the balance of power real quick.)

This is why we must destroy progressives...NOW...while there is still time. Fairness, in their world, only works one way. Just ask Juan Williams.

Someone breaks into my house and they're going be in for a rather nasty case of severe lead poisoning.

Texas has a "Castle Doctrine" law, so these bums better not "Mess With Texas. . . .

A Castle Doctrine (also known as a Castle Law or a Defense of Habitation Law) is an American legal doctrine claimed by advocates to arise from English Common Law[1] that designates one's place of residence (or, in some states, any place legally occupied, such as one's car or place of work) as a place in which one enjoys protection from illegal trespassing and violent attack. It then goes on to give a person the legal right to use deadly force to defend that place (his/her "castle"), and/or any other innocent persons legally inside it, from violent attack or an intrusion which may lead to violent attack. In a legal context, therefore, use of deadly force which actually results in death may be defended as justifiable homicide under the Castle Doctrine.
