Mayor Danny Jones criticized BB&T at the meeting. "What does their public position have to do with our legislation?

They're playing politics on something that's very serious.

Eminent domain is serious when you use it to put the screws to property owners mayor!

Oh, the righteous indignation of a socialist when some person or business disagrees with them!

Go BB&T! I cheered when I initially saw this story. A couple of years ago, BB&T bought the bank my family had done business with for decades. If this represents the BB&T principles, we need more entities like them standing with us in the enment domain trenches.

"$2.3 million"

mere pittance..

"What BB&T is against is using eminent domain for private development of private property. That's the key component: Private use is an abuse of eminent domain."


I'm marching down there Monday and opening up an account. Bump BB&T!

I would surmise that the greater quantity of money movement would be TOWARD the bank because of their stance on this matter. $2.3 million leaving will not phase BB&T in Charleston.

I hope they stand their ground.

This is great. Now if they'd just get rid of their stupid "NOo Guns" policy.

Go BB&T!

2.3 Mil is pocket change in the LowCountry...

Can't the voters disband the Urban Renewal Authority?
