You know what? You are in my property illegally I feel that I have a legal right to use lethal force to remove you.
"Squatter rights" are the "right to get the fuck off my property before you no longer live".

>An Oklahoma landlord is facing a manslaughter charge after fatally shooting a squatter he found in one of his homes.
Timothy Smith, 59, opened fire on Justin King, 42, on his property in Oklahoma City on May 1 when he discovered he was illegally living there, police say.
Smith reportedly told police that he and his daughter checked on the home because the neighborhood had been having issues with homeless people in the past, and he wanted to ensure it was empty.
Smith, who was not living in the home at the time, said he entered with a gun and confronted King when he found him in the back bedroom with a woman.
When he ordered King to leave, Smith claimed that King stepped toward him, so he aimed 'at the area' of the squatter and pulled the trigger, per court records cited by KOCO.
