Just because there's a catchy acronym denigrating people who oppose developments, which they believe will be harmful to their interests, does not mean that the developers are right, and the "NIMBYs" are wrong.

Sometimes "NIMBYs" are simply property owners trying to protect their property rights.

NIMBY's normally don't own the property in question.
