Newest Supreme Court ruling

And this would be bad in what way....? :hihi: :hihi: :hihi:

 

I'm reading it right now....when you read the dissent you'll see what happened.......


The court in effect erased the "public use" words from the 5th amendment. It is now legal (as long as it benefits the community, i.e. higher tax revenue, and is part of an economic development plan) to take private property from A and give it to someone else for PRIVATE USE.

 

This utilitariam government BS is really pissing me off.

 

This is pretty much what is happening over here in Arlington right now. Big Jerry is bringing the Cowboys into town and the city can't roll over fast enough to kick people off their land to subsidize his new playground.

 

I just read another portion of this: They are tearing down these homes to build other homes.............just better homes that the city likes more. We need to riot in the streets.

 

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

100% AGREED! I don't even think we should have waited this long...

 

"Justice John Paul Stevens wrote for the majority. He was joined by Justice Anthony Kennedy, David H. Souter, Ruth Bader Ginsburg and Stephen G. Breyer."

So basically you have the liberals voting for and the conservatives voting against. Which makes sense when you realize that the liberals are more likely to lean towards the "public good" rather than the "individual good".

Horrible, horrible ruling. I agree with whoever said lawyers will make a mint on this. They've only scratched the surface.

 

I was asking people here at work.......where was the realtor lobby on this cause think about this: what if you have an old house like we do on Jones Creek. The house is surrounded by development but they are holding out for more money from somebody right?

Well no need to hold out any longer cause the city can take your house and land, give you "fair market" and then give the land to Target. Target would have had to paid millions but now only fair market value.

If I was a realtor I'd be going crazy cause it seems to me now that all property just gets fair market value if the city wants it even for PRIVATE use.

 

Where do we meet and how can 2 people riot? :hihi:

 

Figure on 3. His buddy, Rex, will be there as soon as he figures out how to pin this ruling on Bush.. :hihi:
