今天在火车上看免费报纸,有个小新闻让俺小唏嘘了一把。
 
有个女人,带着一四岁的儿子,为charity滴干活。四月份去秘鲁工作,把房子短期租给另一个女人和她的女儿。两个月后回来,租客不肯搬走,说她炒股票亏了好多钱,现在既没钱交房租,也没钱找其他房子租。屋主只好向警察和负责这个区的政府求助,但他们也拿这个租客么得办法,因为她有个权力叫“squatter's rights”。
 
后来屋主只好让警察保驾去自己家里取出了帐篷,然后和儿子在朋友家的花园里camping......
 
再后来屋主只好花钱找律师,现在这个租客被要求2个礼拜后搬走,但是如果她硬赖着不走,你也不能骂她打她硬赶她,除非通过法庭强行押走她们,真走到这一步,又要花几个月的时间......
 
女人说,做慈善,一辈子帮无家可归的人,到头来自己有家不能回。
 
没办法,这也是justice。

写了这篇短文,我对squatters也产生了小小的兴趣,查了一下,发现英国法律对这类人的权利相当保护。

In England and Wales, the term squatting usually refers to occupying an empty house in a city. The owner of the house must go through various legal proceedings before evicting squatters. Squatting is regarded in law as a civil, not a criminal, matter.[37] However, if there is evidence of forced entry, then this is regarded as criminal damage, and the police have the powers to remove the occupants. If the squatter legally occupies the house, then the owner must prove in court that they have a right to live in the property and that the squatter does not, while the squatter has the opportunity to claim there is not sufficient proof or that the proper legal steps have not been taken. In order to occupy a house legally, a squatter must have exclusive access to that property, that is, be able to open and lock an entrance. The property should be secure in the same way as a normal residence, with no broken windows or locks.

In 2003, it was estimated that there were 15,000 squatters in England and Wales.[38]

The legal process of eviction can take a month or longer, perhaps even years.

To show that the occupier of the squatted building is in fact in physical possession of the property, squatters often put up a legal warning known as a "Section 6", a copy of which is often displayed on the front door.[39] Doing so attempts to claim that there are people living there and they have a legal right to be there. It also claims that anyone —even the technical owner of the property—who tries to enter the building without permission is committing an offence. These claims are fallible following amendments to the law in 1994.[40]

美国的justice也一样。说是保护弱者利益,其实往往保护了无赖
