Here is another one: Do people have a right to live? Or is life not a fundamental human right?
If you then consider human life a right, and a person find that no one will help them, and they risk death, then would not them doing whatever is necessary to stay alive be justified? They can claim their right to live justified them stealing or squatting in property. Take the case of a child that was abandoned by their parents, and now fends on the streets for themselves, and steals and what not. If human life is a right, aren't they justified to do so?
Or do you want to argue life is not a right people have? If life is not a right then, then what is a right?
