:mad Idiots that loot foreclosures...

These people who take out the kitchen appliances, bathroom sinks & cabinetry in their homes prior to turning the keys over to the bank during a foreclosure... these people fucking piss me off. Clearly they're literally THROWING furniture down the stairs... how the fuck do you get holes punched in the sheet rock at the base of the stairwell?

These fucking losers who take the carpeting... what the fuck are they going to do with the carpeting, anyway? You gonna sell it to some dude on the corner? Sell it on CL? No, they're just trying to make the process miserable for everyone involved.

Their perspective is that if THEY can't own the property, then YOU can't own the property either.

I've been doing a bit of research on this subject online. Apparently the reason they're taking the appliances with them is because they think they have a right to take them. Apparently nobody explained to them the way commerce works. If it's written into the loan... if it came with the house that you did NOT pay for... then you don't own the fucking appliances... the bank does. How is this such a tough concept for them to understand?

Apparently these people blame the banks for "getting them into this situation" and "taking away their homes". They aren't taking away shit. They say the banks are taking advantage of them losing their jobs, etc. Why... why... WHY would you commit yourself to buying a place if you don't have adequate means to pay for it, job or not? And if you don't have a job any longer, is that the banks fault? The bank is just trying to recoup their loss, not trying to displace you. Nobody forced these idiots to buy a property they can't continue paying for.

I can't stand the people that look at home ownership as being anything other than having financed yet another possession. You can live somewhere else. You can rent something within your means. That's all controllable by YOU... I don't understand the whole entitlement craze, where these idiots think it's their god given right to own a home by any means necessary, and if the bank wants to take their possessions away from them... well, then they're gonna fuck it all up. They're gonna piss on the floor... they're gonna throw hammers through the walls... they're gonna rip off the counter tops... they're gonna throw their furniture down the stairs. Guess what? They even rip out the central heating and air.

These people are like animals. They need to look in the fucking mirror, and maybe take a swift kick in the head.
