Petition Action

Trespass should be a criminal offense

Additional Information

Travelers, gypsies etc. often take over private property knowing it will take a long time to go through the courts to get them removed because it is not a criminal offense. Many of the travelers come from Ireland where trespass is a criminal offense.
With a great influx of East Europeans we also have a rising problem of squatting. This new law will also solve this problem.
