In New York City, it’s not uncommon for Americans to be treated as second-class citizens. On top of that, residents don’t have this little thing called “private property rights.” Because progressive lawmakers have decided that just because you own property, does not mean that it is your building to do with as you please. And on top of all that, just because you want to live in your own home does not mean you get to. Just because you pay for it with the fruits of your labor, does not mean you are afforded that right.

A woman in New York got arrested because she tried to change the locks on her own home after a group of people broke into the house and moved in.

According to The New York Post:

A New York City property owner recently ended up in handcuffs following a fiery standoff with a bunch of squatters she has been trying to boot from her family’s home, tense footage of the ordeal shows.

Adele Andaloro, 47, was recently nabbed after she changed the locks on the $1 million home in Flushing, Queens, that she says she inherited from her parents when they died, ABC’s Eyewitness News reported.

“It’s enraging,” the homeowner said of the squatter saga. “It’s not fair that I, as the homeowner, have to be going through this.”

Andaloro claims the ordeal erupted when she started the process of trying to sell the home last month but realized squatters had moved in — and brazenly replaced the entire front door and locks.

Fed up, she recently went to her family’s home on 160th Street — with the local TV outlet in tow — and called a locksmith to change the locks for her.

A heated, caught-on-camera spat with the alleged squatters quickly unfolded and ended with some of the so-called tenants — and Andaloro — being led away in cuffs.

In New York City, a person can claim “squatter’s rights” after just 30 days of living at a property.

Under the law, it is illegal for the homeowner to change the locks, turn off the utilities, or remove the belongings of the “tenants” from the property.

“By the time someone does their investigation, their work, and their job, it will be over 30 days and this man will still be in my home,” Andaloro said.

“I’m really fearful that these people are going to get away with stealing my home,” she added.

I know what you are thinking. Yes, this used to be called trespassing. But in New York, this is what they mean when they say “housing is a human right.”

Even if you think that there is an argument for "squatters" rights, can we at least amend the law so that if there is no lease and the property owner has received no payments, then there is no right to "squat?"

Progressives love to dance around words and definitions and read the law so literally, that they end up interrupting it in the opposite of how it was intended. Not that anyone should ever have a right to someone else's property.

Who would have guessed that we would be living in a time when Americans were arrested for trying to move into their own homes?

While Progressives claim they are all for the little guy, they are crushing any chance of the middle class from owning property and enabling giant corporations to buy mass amounts of land. Thus, arguably, being the party of the rich while de facto loathing the average person.

This is increasingly concerning because it does not take much for degenerate thugs to figure out what houses are easier to break into by targeting vulnerable people. But when the left screams they are for making housing a right, they don't mean a right to the house you paid for. They mean the right to a property even if it is through eminent domain.

Anyway, welcome to The People's Republic of New York.
