Man devoted to eliminating squatters taking over Southern California homes
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 9 май 2024
- As illegal squatters taking over homes across Southern California grow increasingly common, one man has dedicated his life to fighting those squatters and protecting homeowners. Known as “The Squatter Hunters,” Flash Shelton, 57, is the man behind the operation focused on helping homeowners clear their properties of squatters while fighting to change laws that protect squatters’ rights.
Recently, squatters took over a Beverly Crest mansion and turned it into a wild party house where hundreds of rowdy guests would show up every night. In February, another group of squatters took over a Hollywood Hills mansion and used the property to produce OnlyFans content.
Intruders breaking into unoccupied homes and living there illegally has become a growing issue that some homeowners are concerned about.

Our laws are so backwards, we need vigilantes now? Why not fix the laws to protect the rights of citizens, not criminals?
It's a grey area in the law, the new lease on the property is the solution
the government loves this turmoil. they encourage people like this to exist because it distracts us from the theft that the politicians take part in.
your masters hate you and have zero interest in helping you. they keep you stupid and brainwashed and believing in them, but they will never help you.
Wait till the ILLEGALS nationwide learn about squatters rights. Who's side do you think the courts will take??
Soft on crime politicians and judges don't care until they go on a long vacation and a squatter moves into their home.
You're exactly right but in the local state and federal government especially the governor of California you'd be considered a racist but you can get all the free dope you want amazing isn't it that's what happens when people vote Democrat
Florida just passed a law to make squatting illegal. If you don’t have a lease from the owner you get arrested.
This makes way too much sense for California
@@dudestokedSquatting is illegal in California.
@@jameshw9751 then why is it a problem, as shown in this video
Isn't that too obvious
Damn it. 5 YEARS TOO LATE
"squatters' rights?" The US legal system has become a total joke.
What's next, carjacker's rights?
Didn't you hear the story of the California city that's recommending people leave their car keys in the front porch so that carjackers don't break into the house to steal them?
@@randgrithr7387 wouldn’t surprise me, because in Oakland, we have to leave our windows down and trunk open in order to not have our windows broken and the seats cut through to gain trunk access. It’s okay tho cause some propaganda about republicans makes us feel safer. 😒
The British and English brought squatters rights...So should the remaining tribes go squat on your multi million dollar homes ? 😂
@@matildagreene1744English are British.
@@barfo281 It's a bit more expansive than that.
I saw this guy's video about helping his mother rid her home of that awful squatter. The dude is a hero - imagine how awful it would have been for his widow mother to deal with this alone. So glad he was there.
Yes, by leasing it to another person in the family. An owner cannot beat a lease. But at leas can be at leas.
We have canecorso puppies available at bluedreamcanecorso the BEST SECURITY AVAILABLE IN AMERICA
He was way nice about it I thought. If I were him, they’d of never seen any of their stuff again.
if someone that breaks into your house has more rights than the owner then shouldnt bank robbers have more rights than the bank?
Democrat lawmakers would consider those bank robbers to be undocumented bank employees and VPs so they have rights.
in commie cali, all criminals have more rights because its considered a privilege to own a business and you are denying others thier basic money allowance
Makes sense to me!
In theory, they would have more rights than account holders...
If you own a home, then live in it. Problem solved. Hoarding is a disease. And squatter's rights laws are the cure.
I will never understand how squatting isn’t just plain old breaking and entering. It’s insane so I’m glad to see this guy taking care of the problem.
After all these years, you still haven't figured out where you live. This is California baby, NO LAWS and free for all. Wait till the gangs you're letting in through the border take hold. You'll think Central America is heaven.
Right? Like take up donations to help him!! Squatter Go Fund Me !!
Commies made the laws so that the poor could take over people’s second homes
What’s the problem no one else is living there. Waste of space. These people have more money than sense.
@@hipsonsogbo what? it's still not there to use regardless if the owner is living there or not. It not there property pure and simple
The squatters actually take offense, getting upset that they are getting kicked out. Amazing.
These are not squatters - they are trespassers/intruders who are illegally in someone's property; California is ridiculous - these people should be subject to immediate arrest and charged with trespassing or breaking & entering.
and you allow to steal up to ca $970 - what next?
Right? It's downright theft. They should be arrested.
I hate when roaches get in my house
@@Freddy_Confetti Then clean up more regularly. Having roaches is NASTY no matter where tf you live. And has NOTHING to do with being broke.
And yes, I'm aware you just made a joke about these people being roaches, but do better.
fix the laws!
There's no such thing as squatters rights. They're just trespassing, breaking and entering criminals. *Yes, as a native Californian, I know of these "squatters rights" but they require them to pay property taxes for 5 years or something like that. These criminals are just breaking and entering.*
you are talking adverse possession. I never quite figured out what if the legal owner and the squatter were both paying the property tax? wouldn't it be great to just let someone pay your taxes until right up until they are supposed to get title then come back in and reclaim your property? I think adverse possession goes back to the frontier days where land was abandoned all the time and it was in the best interest of the country as a whole for all land to be used lest the native americans or mexico take it back.
I wonder why they don’t let squatters squat in public buildings?
@@Sam-oo6wythats because you have 4.5 brain cells.
😂😂😂
@@Sam-oo6wy in an era before defined borders. People never seem to think we evolved. I couldn’t go to Mexico and squat, as a matter of fact non citizen are not allowed to land in Mexico. You can get a 99 year lease, but you can’t own it.
Squatters are a huge problem. My Uncle (may he RIP) inherited my grandparent's home when they both passed. He lived 60 miles away so could not monitor the property daily. Squatters not only moved in, but would bully him when he came anywhere near *his* property. The police or law was not on his side. Long story short, he got some gangsta guys he knew to go over there to remove the squatters. It's unfortunate that it took violence and a beat-down, but they would never have left otherwise.
How Flash does it is much better. Your grandparent risked a lawsuit and or criminal charges (major ones if there was violence/assault/battery involved). I know, it sucks, sometimes street justice is righeous, but not in our heavily regulated “modern society.”
well, now your uncle is a criminal and belongs in jail. Then, people can squat on his property and legally take it. You can't hate on rule breakers if you are too. And how did he have gangster friends that were willing to risk big jail time? That is kidnapping, assault, threats, you can't just remove people from a place by force. So, your uncle is a gang affiliated criminal that makes his own justice and you are complaining about a squatter just trying to survive?
@@colt45caliberyou're a loser bro
That is sickening. And we still have rediculous Democrat leaders still trying to enforce gun laws when they won't even enforce safety laws and rules of enforcement to uphold the rules for safety and the rights of our honest citizens who DO follow the law. America is such a joke right now.
@@colt45caliberdon't survive unlawfully on others property and that won't happen
A lady in Queens was arrested for changing the locks on her own house because the squatters have more rights.
Three S policy.
Simple as.
Honestly the interview he gave after her arrest should be used as evidence against him to immediately remove him from her house
It’s a part of the power structure vision that we will own nothing and be happy. That’s why these laws are crazy!!! Good for the Squatter Hunters!
Yeah they will 100% protect the criminals and harassment of the innocent
It's all about protecting the criminals in our society, if you haven't noticed.
It's totally amazing how people are just comfortable doing this. I rented my place to help a "friend ". 3 months, turned into 6 months and so forth. They paid (often late) but I really just wanted my spot back. The experience ruined our relationship. I was annoyed that I had to remind, bug and beg "my friend " to pay his way under market rent!
He moved out in a similar way. I didn't renew his lease. Asked him for months to leave. I just leased to someone else who went over and showed that they're leasing now and helped move him out.
He totally trashed my place, costing me thousands of dollars in cleaning and pest control.
The squatters are so bold. Humans with selfish souls
😮 he wasn't a real friend. 😢
The only thing selfish are greedy boomer slumlords and government leaders.
Shows how much of a real friend he is if he did that to you.
It is disgusting when squatters are ruining people's lives.
Addiction issues, of one type or another. I'd put money on it! ;)

Florida just this week passed a law in their senate, by 100%, giving law enforcement immediate access to remove squatters, no court action necessary.
What happens when the squatter shows the cop a lease (forged)? How are they going to determine whether it's valid or not? Or, how about when the owner wants to kick out their renter (for whatever reason) and tells the cops that there are squatters there. Renters show the cops the lease (this time valid). How are the cops going to figure out this dispute?
@@xsleep1 The burden of proof should be on the squatter. Renters should be freely ejectable since the property is not theirs. I used to clean up for my landlord when other tenants trashed their rentals and have zero sympathy because experience destroyed it. It's up to tenants not to expect to live in one rental for life and to prepare as I always did to relocate as required. It's up to adults to methodically put leading an exhaustively prepared life first as I do. (That includes willingness to relocate to an affordable area in order to own property rather than cling pathetically to one location. Taxes in my hometown were over ten grand a year for a small postwar ranch. My taxes on five acres with two houses and three large workshops are ~$800. The wise live below our means.)
@@xsleep1 The cops can call the landlord and ask who's on the lease.
Man Florida must hate people like me that like constitutional rights lol hopefully not their women.
That should be in EVERY STATE!
That chick was gross. The attitude is abhorrent.
Morphed to SUBHUMAN who cant even speak anymore understandable english.
Look at her it’s expected
Don’t talk that way about my future wife!
Is she single?
Thank you Celine Dion.. u are right
The fact that squatters have any rights at all shows you how far this country has fallen.
YESSSS!! California take notes. Change your laws and protect people who own their homes! And I hope Flash stays safe while doing his work as well.
$5,000 is peanuts compared to attorneys' fees and stress from handling the matter in court.
In my state you can evict those trespassing on land you own from life
I suggest Mr. Flash charge based on his customers , if they are normal people then 5k. If they are rich, charge for half year rent of the property.
*Could you please say that again... but this time in English?*@@firefly9838
@@firefly9838you can do that in any state, you just have to make sure conditions are right. Be smart about it, squatters don’t deserve squat.
Not to mention the time savings, it will take multiple months to get your court date. Time = money.
Dude was a genius. He just said, if they can squat on the homeowner, I can squat on them. Then he moves in, legally, and forces them to some embarrassing realizations, including a lot of public exposure. Flash is the man
I hope his family doesn't cry if he gets shot. 2 people just got shot and killed trying to remove someone a couple of weeks ago.
@user-xm7ym8fj1h he doesn't remove them. He makes them want to leave. He's also a 6 ft heavy guy who looks like he can handle himself, and I imagine that plays a part in his success.
if they can steal legally, you can steal from them too.
*From what I can gather,* the key is not to initially go through the courts where squatters can claim rights. The successful counters seem to be to stop all utilities and block their restarting, monitor the home, wait until they leave, quickly move everything to the curb, change the locks, and install a battery security system and cameras.
The owner's claim is that the property was empty with no utilities, the items moved to the curb were abandoned by the previous tenant or dumped garbage. This puts it on the squatter to prove the owner is lying and they have some rights to occupancy, even though there was no utilities and nobody home at the time their items were removed, while law enforcement adheres to the current status of the property - vacant.
He tried that. His mother called the utilities and demanded the utilities be shut off as she was no longer occupying the house and was told by all the utilities that they couldn't do that as long as people were occupying the house. She and her son, who became the squatter buster, explained that the people didn't have a lease or rental agreement and they were squatting and living there for free and that his mother was still getting the bill and was being forced to pay for thieves. They said, not our problem
@@Superman679 *You're lost,* the utilities isn't a requirement, acknowledging the property was occupied would go against my described approach, his approach is based on not going through other entities who might grant the squatters some rights.
It's ridiculous that you have to hire someone to do what the police should be doing.
Finally, someone has the courage to confront the squatters. Thank you Squatter Hunter.
Sounds like u need to learn to speak up my guy
How dare you
@@NunYaBiz1313how do u speak up to a possible armed violent criminal(s)?
You call it courage if people go out and MURDER people for doing what exactly? Being inside a building? lol
Amazing how relaxed the California laws are against these squatter criminals.
Not just California squatters go back to the 1930's around the depression they would squat land build a home on the land
Atlanta sounds bad too.
its almost same in every state
If politicians are not getting BRIBES and KICK BACKS or selling DRUGS TO SQUATTERS they are not going to help
Yup but if you miss rent and you’re a law abiding citizen you’ll be kicked out out on the street.
Saw his video of getting the squatters out of his Mother's home and just love that Flash has made a business of it. 👏👏👏👏👏❤
This is how it starts one gets tired of it, others start to follow, eventually Chaos ensues then peace again for 100 years. People get tired of the injustices of the world and eventually have to fight fire with fire.
“Local law enforcement says there was nothing they could do.” ?
Nothing sounds more ridiculous.
i don't understand, basically someone breaks into ur home and they can't do anything about it????????????????????????? wat?
I’ve read that prior to leaving the home vacant, the home owner needs to provide a written letter to their local police jurisdiction stating that the home is vacant and no one has permission to live there. Once a squatter moves in, law enforcement can remove the person since they have evidence (the letter) that the home is supposed to be vacant. No “he said, she said.”
@@MD-ky4ho The owner and the city hall have all the paperwork to prove who's the owner of that house. I think that would be more than enough.
It's not ridiculous at all. Statistically speaking, law enforcement IS useless. At least they are admitting it for once.
Cops arrest people for filming in public against the Constitution of the US but they won't evict squatters? That sounds like arrogant law enforcement think they ARE the law instead of the people that are supposed to uphold the laws!
Law maker created this problem
It was the "market" which demands builders build mostly only mansions but rich people can only buy so many; meanwhile people are homeless because they can't afford a mansion.
no no curiouspeople6441, soccer mom activist voter created this problem
@@havable No. It's the regulations and taxes that make building a regular, starter home in L.A. the same price as building a mansion in non-Democrat areas.
Judges created it
The price of real estate created this problem.
Bless this man
Please let this man know that I personally know people that fraudulently rent houses and move in squatters in. I was a victim of this costly scam. These people sublet out my rental property to over 10 people that vandalized my house over $35K. The landlord laws need to change to better protect the home owners. And not so much for the tenants.
squatters should be fined.
Blame the government. Why is it taking so long for them to put in a law to arrest these trespassers? It's common sense, Mr. Newsome. Do your job!!
We'll it's more or less just gaps in the law that are not filled in. Trustpss is illegal but only if there is a warning given. If the place is empty and someone fills it ,then literally I think all states give them the right to stay after 30 or60 or 90 days depending on the states .this isn't to protect squatters though, it's to protect tenants rights from being arbitrarily evicted in a day . So ofcourse the home owner can kick them out but the issue is that the owner must kick then out as a tenant which is long and expensive .so the owner just happens to lose out. Unfortunately the law can't do anything where there is silence but law makers every where seem not to care
This has been going on for decades, in every state. But yeah, blame Newsome.
Newsom encourages this abhorrent behavior. He couldn't give a care in the world, he only care about himself
@@lowercentenary 6th biggest gdp in the world. They carry most of the planets economy and they let people speak as they want and identify as they want. Say what u want about how unlivable and expensive California is but they are literally on top of the world and on top of any conservative state or nation by far so they must be doing something right lol
@@danieldistrola2873 maybe you don't get it. Since Newsom, these types of incidences have increased significantly. You must love Newsom.
Carrer criminals doesn’t have the rights, change the law asap.
Sure
So you admit you need laws to help you because you are too weak to do the hard work yourself and clean out the out of life.
but thats more government. why dont you do something
@firefly9838 They are weak and want to have zero accountability or common sense to use their land or lose it. These rights exist to remind landowners of this.
@@street_cheeks The purpose of government is to protect rights. If the law fails to do that, the law needs to be amended such that it does so.
An idea for the "Squatter Hunter"... take your knowledge, techniques, and skills nationwide! Grow this business and run with it brother!
thank you flash shelton. you are a hero to home owners in California.
Vigilante for hire. A wild concept but when our laws and police can't do squat (pun intended), you gotta turn to someone who takes the law into their own hands.
It seems he’s actually playing by the rules though. Found a legal way to combat the squatters. So actually not vigilanteism. Smart!
If politicians are not getting BRIBES and KICK BACKS or selling DRUGS TO SQUATTERS they are not going to help
He’s not a vigilante. He found a loophole having the home owner give him a lease he and is brave enough to face the squatters. All having permission from the homeowner.
@AmyHoward-lq5tg
He is a bizness man with a brilliant mind, and he makes the police do their job while he gets paid well for not being a coward to these people.
Smart guy doing the job incompetent government can‘t / wont do
Dear Flash, thank you for your help to these homeowners, please be careful. This almost happened to my parents' home in California (we live far away) but luckily my husband had some very, very scary, persuasive friends in the state...
God Bless this man!
"No officer I'm not breaking and entering, I'm planning to enter and never leave". Officer: "Oh, well in that case, go ahead... need some help carrying your couch?"
The sad part is even if you go to court and they apeal the magistrate level the next court you need a lawyer for all the paper work, and about 6-9 months for the next hearing. All while they legally destroyed the property
@1stfloorguy59 ...they do same in uk....it can take 1 or 2 years to get them out using legal process
That's why he doesn't do it that way.
Remember, they dont have rights, lawyers or even a voice. You can do what you want to them and NOBODY will know or notice. Its like nothing happened
@@kayaphus4303 yeah, homeowners and landlords are considered pariahs and so they are hated on and no one treats them well.
It’s even sadder that the police forget they could charge them with Breaking and Entering! The laws would change if squatters did it to the political candidates and politicians. Imagine Gavin Newsom coming home to squatters and the police said take it to court get a hotel room or family. Then the laws would change as the crime would have happened to those who make the laws!
How I got squatters out I removed the front door saying I'd be right back with a new one. After three days they moved themselves out😂😂
I remember squatters taking over a house right across the street while it was under renovations… As far as we could tell, they were illegally smuggling drugs from the house, and actually destroying some of the construction in retaliation to neighbors and the house owner calling the cops on them… And the cops would show up and not do anything because they didn’t have proof the squatters were doing anything illegal? Something bizarre… I think after several neighbors calling the cops, the police finally found drugs one visit and were able to kick them out. But man, it took forever for something to happen. Felt very unsafe for a while.
Thank you! Legend!
I did that once. My friend had some guy stay over and the guy never paid rent and just became a squatter. He became violent and started trashing the property so I came over with police. The guy asked the police to take him to McDonald’s. While they left to take him there. I moved everything to a storage unit under his name and had the locks changed. When he came back & he wanted in. I told him he had moved out 2 weeks ago and handed him his keys to his storage unit. Told him to check his email for info from self storage and about how to get his stuff. Bye 👋
I can imagine if he told the cops youd get fined for an illegal eviction
@@theviolenceenjoyer Theres no eviction if he wasnt paying dude
@@theviolenceenjoyer he wasnt paying.. also there was a 24 hr notice to vacate on his door that had been posted on his bedroom door according to us and the photo of it that we took, so we showed the cops and they told him he wasn’t allowed on the property. 💅 😎
If they can create fake leases, 24 hr notices were posted too 🤷🏻♂️
nice - hopefully you paid the police for that meal - their food too.
This man is awesome!! There are so many outdated laws that need to be changed. I wish Flash the best!
Squatting is legal in uk ..if you're going to go in someone's house while a family or someone living in there that's messed up. But the reality is in london alot of homes are own by foreign billionaires that buys them as a price speculation. While there's a housing crisis and people can't find homes to buy I don't blame them. If they were renting those property then all least you're helping the situation but don't cause the problem holding them with no intention of living in them
No most of these kinds of squatters aren't actually protected by the law. Some very specific conditions have to be met for somebody to be protected from eviction. The cops are just too lazy to do anything about it.
Cops hate being forced to do real work which is what dealing with squatters is. It's messy, unpleasant, difficult, time-consuming, and potentially dangerous. That ticks off pretty much every check box on the list of crimes cops will avoid dealing with at all costs. You wouldn't believe some of the things I've personally seen cops do to avoid having to do their jobs up to and including making threats to the VICTIMS of the crime.
The first incident where the cops threatened the victims with retaliation involved a friend of mine, an old German man, whose house was broken into and robbed by some neighbors living a few houses down the street. He saw them with some of the stolen items and when he insisted that the cops should go and at least talk to the thieves they outright threatened him by insinuating that he should think twice about what he was saying or "maybe we will report this as you perpetrating a suspected insurance scam."
The second incident was when my sister's upper-middle-class neighborhood had a 3am drive-by shooting and she and a load of neighbors reported it to 911 and the cops never even bothered to show up at all. In the end, my sister contacted the local news about it and it was like she kicked over a hornet's nest after that. She got a load of weird thinly veiled threats from various police contacts after that.
There were two more incidents where the cops simply flat-out refused to do anything but they at least didn't stoop to making threats to the victims for suggesting otherwise. One involved a violently mentally ill man pounding on an old lady's apartment door while screaming death threats at her for over an hour straight. Multiple people reported the ongoing incident including a buddy of mine who was the old lady's neighbor. His kids were terrified.
The cops finally decided to grace everyone with their presence two hours later only after learning the guy had finally given up and wandered off. They spent ten minutes filling out their police report, and then it was case closed, job well done. No follow-up despite the old lady knowing who the guy having the violent psychotic episode was and where he lived.
The second incident involved a murder which I won't go into since it will get this comment erased by youtube. It was by far the worst of the incidents and it resulted in the death of an innocent woman.
california has outdated laws.
If i get home and there is a squatter, i just got me a volunteer servant 😂
Bravo you decided to take the job they offered in your original video. That was a great move, keep it up!
We just had one here in Chico they destroyed her house. He was arrested but the lady has to come up with money to fix her home. Insurance doesn't cover everything
did you know that debt was a capital crime at one point, because prison wasnt free. im only saying this because that would solve a lot of problems, or at least invoke the 13th amendment because then they actually have to back people
That’s assuming the house can be insured a lot can’t.
But it doesn’t excuse her from not leasing or renting the property which is what squatter rights compells owners to do
It is an essential tool to basically have abusive landowners make proper use of their land or lose it to those who will
Sucks to suck
Watching these videos, I can't help but thinking about how utterly stupid we have become as a species. Dear God, please help us.
Exactly. 10x more vacant homes than homeless.

@@SamAsm367 you must be one of the squatters 🤣
@@SamAsm367 nothing, and I mean nothing, gives you the right to steal someone else's property.

It's like the #2 basic law right behind Do Not Murder.
Idk about California, but here in NYC where it's becoming a huge problem, the MAJORITY of these squatting cases is people moving into houses while they are being sold. Of course the house will be empty; it needs to be empty for someone else to move in. Having a house you just LEGALLY PURCHASED be full of random crackheads when you arrive is a nightmare nobody should have to go through.
Finally!! Thank you!!!!!!🎉
I always heard about squatters back in the 80's and 90's, but I assumed it was pure hyperbole. Then throughout the 2000's, I've heard more stories about it happening, and now 30-40 years later, I still don't even understand why squatting is protected and homeowners are outlawed.

$5,000 is a months rent in California so if you do the math, that’s a bargain of a deal. 😂😂

Unless you're renting a mansion or condo. The average here in CA is about $2500 give or take. And depends on location. I'm paying only 1100 a month for a 3 bedroom one bathroom because the area is not great but not bad either and its in a small town.

He’s right 100%. I have been using this same tactic since 10 years ago. Only needed it twice but it’s the easiest thing. Screw the courts that offer no protection.
Why can't a home owner do the same thing? Why lease it out to the guy? Just secure the heck out of it. Hire a property management company to watch the home and call the cops for a B&E in progress?
@@squirrelattackspidy Any owner can do the same thing. They just need to know how and what is being done and having someone intimidating or bold enough to make the squatters afraid so they move out. The “new tenant” cab also change the internal area as they like. Squatters don’t want a stranger in their midst.
Why should courts protect negligent landowners from maintains or caring about their land?
Squatter rights exist to remind landowners that theirs is a privilege not a right and not to squander it.

Kudos to this man.
So they trespass on a property and live there and suddenly the law is protectioning the criminals. They do know, that the squatters are criminals. Why provide rights for criminals?
Inside job! Trying to destroy middle class, home ownership, small businesses, etc. they want big giant corporations own everything
Doesn’t make any sense. This is above which political side one is in … this is common sense !!!
Thank you for your service - it's crazy how someone trespassing can take over your house.
Great job sir
Whats the difference between Squatting and breaking and entering?
I can't imagine having to deal with these people on a regular basis. Bless this man and keep him safe.
This is happening all over the US. There's an ongoing case here in Queens, NY. I don't understand how these squatters have more rights than the homeowner. Now we need vigilante justice to help law abiding citizens? We are living in Biff's 1985.
It's more of a California/New York problem. Make sure to thank your radical left politicians.
Hell of a reference, friend. I'm here for it and it's sadly true lol 🤣😭
what i dont understand how in the land of guns nobody actually press them to leave house
@@ifAEGIS cos the person trying to defend themselves or their property are usually the ones prosecuted. Sometimes they're sued by the victim. It's such BS.
@@user-kr8yu8xv3c I feel like we've been trapped in Biff's timeline since tRump said he was running for president in 2015.
We need a series of this
“You ain’t guna be sneaking up on me” hahahaha ironically funniest last words. really fighting fire with fire
What's more needed than this? "Men devoted to eliminating corrupts/corruptors taking over our government."
government squatters
What?
This. The government is the damn problem not the squatters
@@MissGold888 uummm, yeah, squatters are the problem. Those things are not mutually exclusive. They can both be a problem.
@@owenmccord5078What do you not understand? Everything is crystal clear.
Not every hero wears a cap. We need good people out there like this man.
Yeah well, he's not doing charity work. That hero's fees start at $5000.
@@alainportant6412I mean for the cost of a California home that’s a drop in a bucket
Many traitors,crooks and villains wear a cap and have badges.
I wouldn't call him a hero. Mostly an opportunist with an ego the size of all the houses he's ejecting squatters from and his paycheck. It's good he's getting rid of them, but damn is he a giant POS too.
I rather pay this guy get this done asap than deal with court which they take the squatters side giving them a lot of time to move out. Squatters then have alot of time to destroy property. Squatters have alot of rights which they abuse. 5 thousand well worth it.
CONGRATULATIONS.FOR THIS MAS.GOD BLESS HIM.
God Bless you. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏❤❤❤
Its not even a question, a squatter in my home would have a single chance to leave under their own power before being removed in a body bag.
Not unless he gets you first as you cross the threshold, invading a place you do not live in. Count on it, I’d say.
In that case, you wouldn't need the house as you'd be in prison.
The state of commiefornia would jail you for doing that
I'd wait for them to leave, go back in my house and take care of them if they try to come back in when I see them breaking in.@@beanzbeanz
@@Jennifer.335squatting hands typed this
I remember this guy’s story when it first came out…so cool that he turned it into an actual business/purpose
he should be given an award . he should run for local government at mayoral level, then either congress/senate or governor
Definitely want another politician without any political history and especially one that hates poor people.
I know what soon to be inmate you are voting for in November.
This is awesome! I saw his first one. His story on that one is awesome.
you go this is unreal 😮
Our neighbor is a 81 year old women in a wheel chair. She own 5 homes and that is how she cares for herself. One of her tenants moved out and a squatter moved in. Not paying rent and robbing her of her income at 81. And it seems that Progressive Politicians think this is a cure for homelessness. You are hurting tax paying citizens.
and wealthy old women
Remember Dead Wish movie? We need a new Charles Bronson to deal with Joe Biden supporters.
She owns 5 homes. I’m sure she’s fine financially bro
Wow replies are future or ongoing squatters
Almost don’t care because I think older generations screwed younger generations. She has 5 houses we can’t even own 1. I don’t support squatters but I’m not motivated to help.
This guy better franchise: "Gone in a FLASH".
I’m gonna apply as his assistant. My name is Diddly.
I am 6’4” 200 lbs. When they squatters say “What are you gonna do about it?” Flash is gonna say; “You don’t know Diddly”. That’s when I come in...
I am Diddly Squat.
I remember seeing this guy when he got them out of his mom’s place. I’m glad he’s helping others!!
Does this apply to old cabins that have been abandoned when I want to go off the grid
I'm no lawyer but logic would make me think, no --- abandoned property is legally different.
Especially if one was to take care of it respectfully, instead of damaging it.
Who owns it?? Everything is owned by somebody.
@@melfarm9109 not in commiefornia. you could squat in it and technically own it.
Man, i just hope this guy realizes how desperate some of these people are and that he stays safe!
Some states have affidavits, where the homeowner declares under severe financial penalty that the property has never been rented or leased. This allows the cops to immediately arrest the trespassers.
They should not need that. A simple sworn statement from the Property Owner should suffice. Squatters get arrested and go to jail. If the PO is found to be lying, then they go to jail. SIMPLE. It used to be this way, until crooked politicians started to protect squatters for some reason ( THEY GOT PAID OFF)
God Bless This Man!
What’s to keep people from moving into your house if you’re living there?
Squatters are nightmares of landlords
Pacific heights
Good
How awful.
In my state you can evict those trespassing on land you own from life
That movie cured me of ever wanting to be a landlord.
Taxation without representation.
how does this comment fit into the conversation of squatters???
Terra-world, think about it.. it’s really simple.. Property tax paid, no enforcement of property rights given.
@@terra_world do you not know what Taxation without representation means?…didn't they teach that in elementary school?..wow
@@terra_world You're not from the US, are you? It's a common phrase, especially, over here. Us, the citizens, pay all these "taxes" for whatever the govt says, and yet we have no say in how the government manages policies, legislation, etc. The people "elected" claim they represent our best interests, however, the opposite tends to happen.
@@terra_world It is absolutely relevant.
Finally someone who is not afraid to do something.
Good for you SIR!!!!🙏♥️
Imagine getting mad that someone came and caught you breaking into someones house.
Get them out and let THEM fight with the courts to get back in
I wish there was such a thing as laws and COPS.
These squatters are makeing EVERYONES INSURANCE go up. This is why home insurance and liability has gone up 20-30% a year 🤦♀️
when is your property not your property in the US? when your property is a house. yeah, that really makes a lot of sense.
your property is never your property in the US, see what happens when you stop paying the government property taxes
As someone who lives in the south this, is a problem found mainly in blue states. The ‘protection laws’ for squatters I mean, we have squatters they just don’t have our politicians sympathies.
Protect this man at all costs.
I remember his story. I'm so glad hes helping others.
Nice you were firm and gracious thats commendable good job 👍
