Tenant activists run off second illegal eviction attempt in two weeks

Video-Tenant activsts deter illegal eviction simply by their presence 48 sec

On the 10th of August, DC area Tenant organzers defeated their second illegal eviction attempt in PG County just over the DC line in less than two weeks. Again the landlord told tenants he was going to throw their belongings into the street and change the locks with no court order. Again activists showed up en masse, and again the landlord scuttled away in defeat.

This time, the landlord entered the yard and even called the cops, but the cops did nothing as the eviction was illegal. They left, the landlord argued a while but soon tired of losing and left.
