It's kinda interesting situation. In a situation like this, what is the best course of action? If someone in a household is assaulting another, one party is going to end up kicked out when th law gets involved. So why should ownership be a mitigating factor?

Yeah it's a messy situation that the media is trying to spin into some rage-bait headline. A similar scenario would be a husband beating up his stay-at-home wife, who then gets a protective order against him. The headline here could also read "squatter uses courts to get homeowner kicked out of his own property" and half of the people who see it would skip reading the details and start ranting about "the rights of homeowners!, this country is going to shit!, and blah blah blah."
