don't blame the reactions of property owners and the legislature/governor, blame the a-hole squatters who created the mess this bill is intended to fix.

I am not “blaming” anyone.

Maybe this “squatting” problem is real, and maybe it is just the latest “tempest in a teacup.”. We have certainly seen some nasty anecdotal cases recently, but I’ve not seen any data (one way or the other) to indicate whether that the phenomenon is a greater problem than it was a decade ago.

Either way, however, this piece of legislation just seems to have some problems, in that it tips the scale too much to one side in the balance between landlord and tenant rights in a disputed case.
