    Send them to Seattle, they can get criminal immunity, their choice of park/water views, and RV pump out service.

    What are the laws on physically forcing someone off your property (I was thinking more along the lines of intimidation, possibly with a firearm). I suppose it depends if you live there or not, if it's your place of business or not?

    She should let the squatter move on to her property. Much easier to feed.

    Being 24 hours off a vasectomy, I'd better not think it.

    Another "odd" but true short story:
    When my sister-in-law was in her early twenties, she was living in a very small village near Fulda, Germany when she met a guy from from the former DDR (this was right around 1988-9), and they decided to live together in Berlin. At the time, neither had any ties to Berlin. They had no apartment, no jobs, a few friends living there, but no prospects. Upon arriving in Berlin, they met up with some people living in Prenzlauer Berg, which is a now hip section of Berlin, and located in the former DDR. At the time, it was sort of like Berlin's Alphabet City (East Village Manhattan). They met up with some friends and found a place to squat. I was there. It was a bullet pocked, decrepit small building left standing from WWII. It had been abandoned. There was no running hot water (I think they had cold running water) and no electric, but there was a wood burning stove, a toilet and a sink. After a while, they actually applied to the government, and were able to rent it for around DM 60/mo. Anyway, no one ever came to claim the condemned building, and they wound up living there for 3-4 years. Their first child was born there. Three children and 30ish years later, they still live in Prenzlauer Berg, but they own a nice apartment.
    I can't imagine that things, even in Yurp, can be that way today.

    Four sherriff's cruisers at the house now lights flashing - something's going down.

    BTW - calling this place a house is generous. It's a 100yo shack with no foundation and little if any insulation.

    Did they get hot water and electricity then or was it still a hovel that they now had to pay for?

    No hot water or electricity during the 3 or 4 years that she lived there. It was a dump. I remember being made a cup of tea with water boiled in or on that old ceramic kachelofen.

    The "Carolina Squat" turns out to be tamer than I would have guessed.

    Had a couple rent my place in Nederland, they thought it was okay if their friend moved into the 50 year old 10x10 garden shed. Neighbor sitting on their deck drinking coffee and some kid walks out of the shed naked to stretch out in the morning sun. that lasted over a month before I got them out. I wasn't even mad when I saw the shed, he insulated it, built shelves, and a work platform.
