Did they all tear up the stakes and throw in the lake, or just a few, or just one? What did Mr. Connolly mean when he said he approached them to offer the lake to them?
In the words of Ronald Reagan: "Mr. Conolly, tear down that wall!" I think he has their attention now, and can make a very good deal, but not while the fences are up -- for people won't make deal while indignant.
Kinda like how they do it in Zimbabwe?
That doesn't answer the question. Why should laws limiting your use of your property for the "public good" be considered socialism, but taking your money or your land for the same reason not be?
You clearly never studied logic in any place of higher learning.
So sorry. I think I must be going, where I can have a somewhat more elevated discussion. I will leave you to your incredible illogic.
Perhaps I will return later, to be somewhat amused at your increasingly frantic tenor, illogic, and larger and larger lists of anecdotes. :o)
Legal maybe, but I'd be interested in why you think it would be "just" to take this person's property.
Non sequitur. Zimbabwe is not a Constitutional Republic.
TJ, you are a good guy so when I return to the forum I will answer you.
LOL! No problem, Mr. Anarcho-Communist.
And you are one of the most nonsensical people on this forum, but that is also off topic. In fact, on absolutely every thread you are on, you find a reason, no matter how much of a stretch or how inane, to make the topic your obsessive hatred of freedom, but that is also off topic.
No, you pay $750. to a lawyer to represent you when you buy a 300K house. Then you get a financial planner for $500 who will tell you that waterfront property for 30K is a good deal. These people need professional help.
I will leave that to the rest of the forum to decide who has lost it: He who provides links of anecdotes to justify the banning of the morally-neutral legal tool that the Founding Fathers specifically created, or he who has provided legal analysis citations to support his views.
TTFN, sweedums. :o)
Thanks Laz, but you might be a fan club of one. :-)
I'll look forward to your answer, but I'm outtahere pretty quick myself so I might have to check back later to read it. Have a good one.
