Sure, I get that. I don't dispute for a second that it's illegal, and that under that law, the police have the power to evict squatters and arrest those that won't comply.
What I was getting at is that without due process, this seems to be a clear 4th Amendment violation in that they're being deprived of of their property. Of course, none of them could afford a lawyer to pursue a civil rights case, so I guess they're just fucked.
That's one fucked up way to deal with homelessness.
