Arrr matey! The scallywags be squatting in me rental property while I be tending to me ailing lass. 'Tis a real pickle, I tell ye! I'll make 'em walk the plank if they don't clear out soon!
In a tale fit for the high seas, a Georgia man returned home to find his property overtaken by scallywag squatters while he was away tending to his ailing wife. The poor bloke, Paul Callins, lamented to Atlanta's WSB-TV, "These scoundrels broke in on a Friday, hauled all their loot in with a U-Haul, and changed me locks. I can't even catch a wink of sleep!" The rascals set up camp in DeKalb County, where squatting troubles plague the Peach State.Callins, who had poured a bounty of doubloons into renovating his late father's homestead, suspects his online property ad lured the brigands. They brandished a bogus lease when the coppers arrived, claiming three of the varmints dwell within.Regrettably, state law be as treacherous as Davy Jones' locker for homeowners like Callins. But fear not, for Republican lawmakers be crafting a bill to make squatting a keelhauling offense in Georgia. Rep. Devan Seabaugh vows, "No more free rides for these rapscallions who plunder folks' hearths and homes!" The bill, with bipartisan support, be sailing through the House and setting course for the Senate. Avast, ye squatters, your days be numbered!
