Take a Ride With the Foreclosure Eviction Patrol

AP Correspondent Haven Daley rode along with sheriff's deputies responsible for evicting foreclosed homeowners. Last year they'd get a few foreclosure-related calls every week. Now they're evicting dozens of homeowners weekly. (Oct. 29)

Irregardless is not a word.

It sounds easy to just "blame the bank." And, that may be true some of the time. They did make it too easy for everyone to own their own home. But, honestly, you shouldn't sign a mortgage unless you understand what you're signing. I feel for the people who could afford their home legitimately until the economic downturn, and are now unemployed. Wish there was something regular people could do to help keep them in their homes.

@psiewert83 Destroying a home and killing someone are two different things. Your an animal if you think they are both the same.

@Tzimnewman3 Then in that same logic, the banks should just hire professional killers to murder the families so they can never take out a loan again and fuck over the banks.

Hey I have a great idea, it is not fair that some people can't buy houses.

You know what, lets force banks to smoothen their credit demands, and sue that evil if they refuse to provide loans to low credit worthy people.

And so it happened, under Clinton, under the democrats.

And here we are, with a housing bubble and a financial crisis.

@lmivroman1 I'll tell ya who's sure, The People in Egypt and Greece are. And this county is not far behind.

@p71280 I thank God for all of them. But, I'm not sure the "right to bear arms" applies in this situation.

@lmivroman1 Thank God for the 2nd Amendment.
