"In so doing, they have granted special status to the feudal lords of the 21st century, namely major corporations, development companies and local government fiefdoms – reverting our system of property ownership back to the dark ages. Our Constitution is essentially the contract between the people and our government. While the government frequently reneges on this trust, this is perhaps the most egregious case since the birth of our nation. Many are already stating that the decision in Kelo renders the contract null and void."

[Dead Corpse]

"...null and void."

I agree. Damn them to Hell for that.

I dunno 'bout you, but I'm looking at investing in the Lost Liberty Hotel.

The leftist bastards in black robes, are either ignorant of the fire they have ignited....or that was their objective...

How many more straws must be placed upon the citizen, before we have reached "the last straw"?

It appears that the last four decades of leftist educrates, politicians, Follywood and inherently stupid citizens have had the desired effect...

OUR Constitution is NOT subject to change or erasure by the bench....it in NOT a pretty blue dress as one Kalifornicate Congress Critter thought of it as.....to be changed as the freaking mood struck her...

The leftist bastards on the Court, in Congress and in our State Legislatures are the dangerous ENEMY WITHIN.....just as dangerous as the Islamanazi Lunatics....

We all know what happens to those who disagree with our "masters." Let's just hope that the next folks that do so, decide that it isn't the wisest idea to have a "discussion" with the paid servants of the "masters," but instead decide to talk things over with the "masters" themselves. Such discussions, if entered into persuasively enough by sufficient numbers of "servants," should serve to persuade the "masters" to significantly reduce the number of property seizures and other unconstitutional acts that the servants will have to endure in the future.

To me, these are the defining issues of our times:

-Men(ace) in Black? SCOTUS goes Rogue...--

-Useless Eaters vs The Death Cult--

-Thunder on the Border-- (Minuteman Project)--

1- an unaccountable Judiciary.
2- whose life is it, anyway? Yours, or someone else's?
3- whose Country is it?

There are other vital issues, of course- but these three will determine just who we really are as a nation.

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.-- C. S. Lewis

I have updated my FMCDH (From My Cold Dead Hands) sign-off with the addition of (BITS).....Blood In The Streets, which I foresee coming soon, due to the enormous increase of the Marxist progressive movement being shoved down the throat of this failing REPUBLIC through the Judicial tyranny of fiat law, the passing of unconstitutional laws by the Legislative and Executive branches of our government and the enormous tax burden placed upon the average American to support unconstitutional programs put forth by Marxist ideology.

I do not advocate revolution. I only think of what I foresee.

Allrighty then...we revert to the Articles of Confederation.

"Article II. Each state retains its sovereignty, freedom, and independence, and every power, jurisdiction, and right, which is not by this Confederation expressly delegated to the United States, in Congress assembled.

Article III. The said States hereby severally enter into a firm league of friendship with each other, for their common defense, the security of their liberties, and their mutual and general welfare, binding themselves to assist each other, against all force offered to, or attacks made upon them, or any of them, on account of religion, sovereignty, trade, or any other pretense whatever.

Article IV. The better to secure and perpetuate mutual friendship and intercourse among the people of the different States in this Union, the free inhabitants of each of these States, paupers, vagabonds, and fugitives from justice excepted, shall be entitled to all privileges and immunities of free citizens in the several States; and the people of each State shall free ingress and regress to and from any other State, and shall enjoy therein all the privileges of trade and commerce, subject to the same duties, impositions, and restrictions as the inhabitants thereof respectively, provided that such restrictions shall not extend so far as to prevent the removal of property imported into any State, to any other State, of which the owner is an inhabitant; provided also that no imposition, duties or restriction shall be laid by any State, on the property of the United States, or either of them.

If any person guilty of, or charged with, treason, felony, or other high misdemeanor in any State, shall flee from justice, and be found in any of the United States, he shall, upon demand of the Governor or executive power of the State from which he fled, be delivered up and removed to the State having jurisdiction of his offense."

This is just one more step in the dismantling of America.

Some others:
Tear Down America's history and institutions.
Put corporate profits above all else.
Sell or barter America's nukes and military dual-use corporate products.
Close American military bases, while Communist China is opening new ones.
Export America's best jobs.
Import Illegal Aliens for America's remaining jobs.
Create Congress Districts based on Illegal Alien Census Data.
Avoid using word "CITIZEN" except for pejorative name-calling.
Silence American Free Speech with "sensitivity" and "racist" attacks.

The way I see it, the Supreme Court has become null and void...The contract is still good...

[Mulder]

Thanks for the ping.

Reading between the lines, this ruling by the Soviet Court says that the primary purpose of an individual American citizen is to maximize the financial status of the state.

That goes against everything this country was founded on. And it gives us a good indication of how they will rule on future cases.
