It was a home, Cristofaro said, that his father had lovingly surrounded with fruit trees, grapevines, yews and rhododendrons.Today it is a parking lot.
bttt
Bump
Oh boy, the battle starts. Will it be like Jan-The-Man Reno, at Waco, with 24 hour rap music to drive them out?? Will they burn down the houses with the people in them?? How is BIG BROTHER going to carry out their socialist oppressive agenda??
Mad? You bet.
Call to impeach the 5 justices as well.
What's the point, I thought it already was in the constitution.
Does this ruling render my mortgage null and void?
(What happens to a nation when private citizen's property rights are thrown to the wind on the whim of a ruling oligarchy?)
=======================================
" “Those justices made the wrong decision,” Cristofaro said. “Four of them protected our property rights; five threw them out the door. I hope their property is chosen next for eminent domain so they know what it's like to be thrown out into the street.”And even though, after six years of fighting the city, the group seemed to have run low on options, several promised that they would never leave.
========================================
This is serious. Our President and Congressional leaders should speak up very forcefully against this ruling. There is no more outrageous ruling so far than this one. It goes completely against the Constitution. If they don't speak up now, when will they do it? Most Americans are not aware of this outrage and should be told at every opportunity. We will not be able to put judges in the Supreme Court who respect the Constitution until people demand it in no uncertain terms. Mr. President, it is now or never. If you do not use the bully pulpit now, you will be partly to blame for the American people not knowing what's going on.
What a disgrace
yet New Londoners keep electing these people...
I'm reminded of the first scene in Hitchikers Guide...
I wonder if it will be Waco Part II.
I would be tempted, myself.
Amazing considering that nothing happened.
something like..Congress shall not have the power to seize private property and give it to another private entity or corperation
Hmmmm... it sure would be hard to build a mall on an EPA superfund site.
You mean, send the bill to your local government?
Just goes to show members of SCOTUS aren't worth saving. Down with SCOTUS!
Today it is a parking lot.
Don’t it always seem to go
That you don’t know what you’ve got
Till it’s gone
They paved paradise
And put up a parking lot
