Theft is theft - eminent domain siezures only make it legal
Whether it’s the government stealing your land is irrelevant. Eminent domain may be legal, but it's frequently not right. See the previous statement.
Michelle Malkin highlights a landgrab by Democrats in New Jersey. It’s not pretty. The rest of the entry describes how eminent domain continues to be abused in other places in America.
As I’ve said before in this space, sooner or later, these eminent domain land grabs, authorized by political cronies and influence peddlers, will end in violence. Fortunately, a number of state legislatures are working to correct the errors of the recent 5-4 vote in the Supreme Court (of note, it was the liberals who all voted for the government to sieze your property to increase the tax base).
This organization seems to be part of the wave combatting this legal theft by local and state governments. http://www.castlecoalition.org/
