My landlord brought 30 bikers to evict me but they but they refused after seeing what was inside our apartment. I was standing in my doorway at 7 AM on a Tuesday, holding my four-year-old daughter while my seven-year-old son hid behind my legs, as thirty massive men in leather vests walked up our apartment stairs.
