Owen Courreges points out that the town of Freeport is not only rejoicing at the Supreme Court's repeal of property rights. They're already drawing up the papers to start seizing property.
...officials in the beachfront town of Freeport, south of Houston, said they would move aggressively to condemn property owned by two seafood companies to clear the way for an $8 million private marina.I wonder how long it will be before we have another Waco-like standoff.

This is horrible. This is what happens when property rights are no longer absolute. Theft....plain and simple. If I don't want to sell you my property, well...too bad. It is MY property and not yours. If our country continues down this slippery slope I fear it may once again lead to a bloody revolution. It's the main reason why the right to bear arms is so important. It's the ONLY recorse a people have against a government gone wild.

Only good news is that AZ has much stronger protections against ED seizures than some states, so it's highly unlikely it would come to that here.
