The one where SCOTUS decided we don't actually have property rights, either?

The town where Pfizer built a $300 million dollar R&D facility and helped the city condemn the other property in the area in order to "rejunvenate" (raise more tax money from) the area?

Now, guess which R&D facility is closing. http://lawprofessors.typepad.com/land_use/2009/11/kelos-next-twist-pfizer-to-close-new-london-facility.html

oh, not only that: they never built anything on Kelo's property anyway!
they only razed the buildings and let the weeds grow.

this should really p*ss you off, it does me!

where is the outrage? --
are they going to have to rape your wife and daughter (or son) before you get mad enough to do something about all this?

On a serious note, good to see one of the worst rulings in recent SC history looking even worse as it ages.
