New York
New York has now gone totally off the rails. A woman discovered squatters living in a home she inherited. She called the police who said there was nothing they could do so she called a locksmith to change the locks.
The squatter then called the police back and they arrested HER for changing the locks!!
You just can't make this shit up.
Atlanta
The problem exists nation-wide. It is estimated that 1,200 homes are occupied by squatters in Metro Atlanta. Many are rentals or homes that are for sale and vacant.

At least in Georgia the Squatter Reform Act was passed by the State House two weeks ago. This Bill reclassifies squatting as Criminal Trespass which allows the police to get involved. It seems that Georgians believe that private property deserves protection.
