If indeed the government took your father's property for 15 cents on the dollar, that is forcible theft.

And since one of the reasons the Founding Fathers went to war with Britain was over the confiscation of some pine(I think) forests, why not the theft of your dad's property?

I'm not saying he should have ambushed some cops who have no clue about what's going on exactly, or that your father should want to ruin his life---but when does it end?

What about the example I gave earlier where they wanted to take people's land in Maryland to give to a PRIVATE developer? It came down to a vote by the people, and fortunately most of them believed in some measure of liberty. But what if it had gone the other way?

What about the community in New York that was fighting to stop eminent domain from taking their homes to give to IKEA??!?!

When does it end, and how does it end? It seems that even when there's a big uproar the city or state does what it wants--and why should one have to worry about getting the entire populace to your side every time the government wants to steal your property?
