Common sense getting rid of squatters? Call DeSantis

Writing letters to some folks in Columbia today about passing SC a law like this

Also the child law regarding account ownership under 15for internet
 
One of the big Florida issues is that the snowbirds come South in September then stay till Spring and then lock up and vacate house in Spring

That big vacancy gap gives the squatter lots of time to wait 30 days and then dive in and live in it for months establishing domicile

Had to fix the law as what was in effect was not working

SC needs to make sure we get similar protections for property owners

Wonder how long it will take them to change the laws? Its unsustainable.




Staten Island/ Brooklyn Assemblyman Michael Tannousis Confirms Squatters Can Legally Stay In Vacated Homes & It Could Take 2.5 Years To Remove Them In New YorkAnd It’ll Continue “With no end in sight”“You could come through the border, unvetted. You can get on a bus paid for, come to New York City. We pay for your shelter. We give you room and board. We give you clothes. We give you funding. You can go steal from a drug store. Nothing will happen to you. No bail will be set on you. We do not cooperate with ICE and immigration officials. And now, even better, if you find property that appears to be vacant with the homeowner not there. You could stay there for a period of 30 days or even if you don't, even if you could show some kind of proof that you were there for 30 days or more, you now force that owner to take you to landlord tenant court, which any attorney in New York City will tell you thanks to former mayor Bill de Blasio, it will take the owner.A year and a half to two years to kick out that person from their property, even though that person committed a crime and trespass on their property. Ladies and gentlemen, the insanity in New York State and in New York City continues with absolutely no end in sight.“
 
One of the few things that I agree with Tiny D about. **** squatters.

This should be something with like 95% national support right? We should pass a federal law eliminating any squatters rights laws. Add mandatory jail time and fines for attempting to squat. This entire concept shouldn’t exist and should be eliminated from society.
 
I can remember my uncle running them off with a shotgun..back in the 70s..trespassers in general...worked well and the Law allowed it....of course people dont do that today

How very conservative of you to support a law that restricts internet access on the basis of age. Government needs to protect people from themselves am I right?
Methinks you are confusing libertarian with conservative.

So a conservative believes in using the authority of government to impose significant restrictions on liberty? As long as they agree with those restrictions?

So you do not believe in child labor laws because that imposes significant restrictions on liberty as well?

I'm not sure what that has to do with why a "conservative" is advocating for big government protecting people from themselves.

I very obviously believe in child labor laws.

Talking underage children that I think need parental supervision

And I have ZERO problem having parents be the people in their children's lives instead of people who want to harm them

It is really no different than child labor laws, in that you are protecting individuals who are not mature enough to handle certain rights that adults have. I would like the individual to state that they agree with the proposed law or they oppose it. The comment about conservatives does not address whether he supports or opposes it.

Yes. Conservatism has never really had a problem with using oppressive authoritarianism. I think you’re confusing conservatism with Republicanism. Although Republicans also do this regularly and don’t really stand for Republicanism anymore.

I have to agree here, and "squatters rights" baffles me. I can understand providing some protection to legal tenants from landlords. That's OK. But people coming into a house they don't own and just living there? That makes no sense.
 
No issue but why on second? I will not argue with your answer. My answer is yes on it as I believe we should limit access until a certain age. Thank you
I see the argument for the internet age restrictions, I just don’t think it really makes sense or works. I’m not sure how the government could effectively regulate usage of a constantly, constantly evolving technology that is omnipresent in everything we do day to day.

Feels like the only way to do it would be to regulate internet access as a whole in the draconian style you see some other autocratic governments do it.

There’s plenty of technology out there available to parents to restrict their children from accessing things online that they don’t think their children should access and I think that’s the best way for internet access for children to be handled.

Anyone under 15 and over 65 can’t use the internet without supervision of someone within that age bracket.

olds also don’t seem to have the ability to separate fact from fiction on things they read online.

Evidence: read Tigergrowls, allornothing, and palmettotiger posts

Limit access to just social media? The whole Internet? Who gets to choose what is appropriate here? Whichever party happens to have spent more money than the other and won the election?

Yes it is a slippery slope. Given that republicans have already openly discussed wanting to raise the voting age.

You could also have state governments deciding which websites can be visited. Like, christian religious websites where the pastors praise con men like trump and label others demoncrats.

and, of course, EVERYONE knows that hiding things from kids and pretending that the thing doesn't exist is definitely the best choice. its been studied. abstinence education WORKS! banning things from kids WORKS!

Some actual thoughtful discussion

To be clear I am 100% on children having to have parental knowledge and approval until a reasonable age of consent unti at least 16 but more like 18


This is on 100% of everything in their life.

Of course the world gas changed and how it works has changed

But again children should be raised by their parents and not government

If parents make mistakes let it be on them

If government makes a mistake it is a huge issue

Squatters rights to me are a perfect case related to Democratic effects of Less criminal consequences which I think is the results of left liberals and NOT the beliefs of many Good Democrats as there are many good Democrats as well as bad American Democrats

Most Americans are quiet and don’t rant and riot and try to live and raise a family

We need to go back to family values and religious values

Got to go Family calling

Love to the dysfunctional but lovable TI family

@iceheart08 You go and do your thing

I would never accept censoring your speech as I day more speech not less when people disagree

How about government telling the web sites what they could publish to the public

WAIT THEY ARE DOING THAT NOW

This is one of your problems. You make everything a partisan issue. Anything good = trump. Anything bad = everyone else.

Squatting is a problem nationwide. It is not specific to dem controlled states or municipalities. Landlords have gotten away with hideous behavior for years, and local politicians of all stripes saw that renters' rights would be a popular platform to run on. The pendulum swung too far in the other direction, as it always does. Overcorrection is often one of our biggest problems. A perfect example would be trump wanting to deport all undocumented immigrants, despite the fact that it would cripple our food supply.

Also, you really need a better understanding of the difference between "liberals" and "progressives". It is much like the difference between "magas" and "conservative republicans".

This has always happened. Liquor advertisements, child porn websites, etc.

We also know that the trump admin was in contact with social media platforms about what they should and should not publish.

It has been happening forever.
