Message: [QUOTE="BlueMAB, post: 2727371, member: 920"] Yeah, the ACLU is a bastion of right-wing conservatism. The bottom line is our supreme court decided it was okay for the government to force the sale of private property for public benefit rather than public use. And yet the public didn't benefit, because that land still sits vacant today; and there's been no development leading to a boost in property taxes. So Kelo lost her house and CT homeowners lost their property rights. The only benefit to New London was whatever money was spent at local business during the production of that movie. Dred Scott lost in court every time at every level. I suppose that means the courts are infallible right? [/QUOTE]
