I didn't like being a landlord. The trash that rented from me , had more rights then I did............
and I screened them pretty good. MY worst renters for a family, who the guy was in the coast guard changed the door locks without my permission, against the law, there kid took a ball point ink pen to all my soft cedar decking outside, The list goes on......., They trashed my house............

Realist - Everybody in America is soft, and hates conflict. The cure for this, both in politics and social life, is the same -- hardihood. Give them raw truth.
