H, Considering the national aspect of many of the organizations, including especially the "national Conservancy", I have no doubt the laws could be applies considering the debilitating effect they have on private property owners. There is NO WAY their policies are not deliberately designed to do exactly what they are doing. Buying property at "fire sale" prices after MAKING tha price of the TARGETED property drop like a rock. I DO have doubts about finding "lawyers" who would take the cases. Unlike tobacco, godgov is on the side of the thiefs this time. Or maybe like tobacco{?}. Peace and love, George.
