I agree -- but my point is, this wouldn't be an issue if our elected officials didn't feel the freedom to steal our property without feeling the consequences at the ballot box.

The Supreme Court did not mandate that elected officials take the land. The elected officials fought for their theivery and won. The low-hanging apples here are the people who need our permission in the next two years to keep their jobs. This applies at the local, state and federal level. Fix that, and the judge situation will begin to fix itself.

Hopefully it reverberates as the villains in this are the SCOTUS justices, not necessarily their cronies in low places.

I always think this is true of school boards too. They are most often elected.
