“It takes away such a basic freedom: Property rights. Your vehicle is on your property and the cops have the right to step on it and ticket you in your own driveway.”

We lost our basic freedom re personal property rights decades ago. Low-flow toilets which became mandatory started it all, I think.

You actually touched on one of my pet peeves. Low flow toilets, like the minimum wage, is textbook fascism.

Zoning laws. About 1900 they were ruled as Constitutional and not a “taking” of property.

I recall it was a 3 judge panel, and the dissenting judge said: “You are going to regret this decision”.

Many have.
