Time for another Boston Tea Party (or perhaps something stronger?)
It seems to me that this would be the time for the people of New London to stand up for their rights. Take up whatever arms they can find and do NOT let the government drive them from their homes. Issue a call for others to join. Bring the media in and let them see how the government is driving them from their homes to put up a shopping mall and a health club. This battle MUST be fought...it is only going to get harder to win down the road.
