In reply to Dale C Jackson Sr. And sadly, it would quickly become a filthy, crime ridden ghetto, because man does that

How do I contact Mr. Pike? I have a place in the south of France (27 acres) where he would be welcome to rebuild his home. Would love to get in touch and discuss this with him.

Fascinating little hidden homestead. His entitled attitude towards the landowners bothers me, though. They are the ones who will have to cart out several truckloads of his trash.

In reply to Jack Mason. Here's your chance to put your money where your mouth is and invite him to come and live with you.

Honestly to tell you the truth. Not a single American citizen owns their own land. Look up eminent domain people. You dont own the land, the government does. At any time they feel like it, the government can tell you to get off that property. We dont own our land or home. The government does, you just pay the government rent (property taxes), and at any time the government can come in and end that rental agreement. Tell you to pack your shit and get out.

In reply to Jack Mason. My husband and I have 40 acres of land that we bought in 4 different tracks. No one gave it to us. I would not be willing to lose it because someone had a slip and fall on my property.

I am a landowner, and I would not allow a squatter on my land, for several reasons. I am sympathetic to this young nan’s desire to live free and in solitude, but he does not have the right to take what belongs to another. Owning land is a privalege afforded those who work hard to pay for it and pay taxes on it.
