That's what I thought was going to happen. Instead we got some weird douchey guy and someone who thought they could steal a whole house.

You've obviously never been to Detroit. There are tens of thousands of vacant homes and a homeless population to rival it. That homeowner never lived there and bought it for a pittance in an attempt to flip it, only to find that it will never sell because every other house in the neighborhood is being squatted in as well, so she took her frustration out on the squatter, who was doing what literally everyone she knows was doing, by trying to RUN HER OVER WITH HER CAR. They even zoomed in on the comically obvious tire tracks in the grass, so this attempted murder was incredibly RECENT and the homeowner is filmed with an air of quiet dignity the entire time. wtf

I'm not saying the squatter was right, but literally no one else is in that segment either.

Didn't you know that in America all crimes are punishable by death? That's why it's totally ok to shoot someone running away with your TV.

No, that is just a side effect of waiting in jail to be executed. They don't actually let you go after you are raped.


To be completely factual, Texas required written consent from the TV neighbor to do that. So it doesn't happen very often because who writes a letter to their neighbor telling them they can use lethal force to defend their property? Not Texans because if it's worth protecting we will do it ourselves.

Hell, in Texas it's legal to shoot someone in the back who's running away with your neighbor's TV. Property is so sacrosanct it doesn't even need to be yours for you to protect it with deadly force.

If the bullet gets lodged in their spine, are they guilty of stealing it?

I see a lot of things wrong with this, and an overall absence of 'freude. First of all that dude has a list of defamation, plagiarism and distortion allegations longer than his bibliography, which is to say that not only is he a douche, but he's an unethical douche.

Secondly, the issue of poverty and homelessness in Detroit is not something you can just take sides on, especially when the most passable case study you could do a report on involves the homeowner getting arrested for attempting to kill the squatter with her car. We're not off to a great start here.

After glossing over the attempted murder, LeDouche goes out of his way to make sure the squatter mentions she's on WELFARE and she DEFINITELY HAS A DISABILITY GUYS SHE'S NOT FAKING IT. So now that we've sufficiently established a confirmation bias in all of the Fox viewers, we can get on with arresting this dirty squatter so that she can be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law, leaving her child parent-less and in the care of the state for over 2 years! What's that, we forgot to mention that she had a child? Well that might make her too sympathetic, because what person wouldn't move into a seemingly abandoned house when they have a child to care for, so let's just gloss over that and get a close up of the handcuffs locking in place around her dirty squatter wrists. Excellent reporting, guys, our journalistic integrity is definitely intact and we've solved Detroit's homelessness epidemic.

That's great! So what you're saying is not "there is no schadenfreude here", because that's not how that word is used, but "I personally don't get schadenfreude from this". Hey guess what buddy! No one gives a poo poo! This isn't the thread for you, obviously. The solution is not for you to preach about how this is wrong, it's for you to leave the thread!

And unless they've changed it, you have to have a reasonably convincing argument as to why the theft of your neighbor's TV affects you personally (you got to watch it sometimes, the loss of property impairs his ability to repay debts owed to you, etc.)

Texas is a wacky place, man.
