21. tenant strike? squatters?

I'd guess different people have different issues, different focal points.

Lets imagine a minority disabled union worker, who inherited her mom's house, which is currently being inhabited by undocumented immigrants (who sexually harass her as a landlord), and refuse to pay their back rent, which was increased to cover her increased health-care costs.

Where do the loyalties fall? Quite frankly, the real world doesn't, and shouldn't, have simplistic "loyalties".

The real world is complex, where there are no "good guys" and "bad guys".
