Kelo Report

Subhuman pieces of whale dung.

Not Goat dung? Is whale dung worse then goat dung? What about Human dung?

Any idea what they are settling for? I guess relocation isn't too bad for Kelo.

I heard through a third party that Bill Von Winkle would have been happy to sell his 3 properties for 2M, and when I heard he sold I figured he got his price.  He says he got "good money".  But he didn't get 2M.
He sold because he's tired of trying to run a business while being harassed by every bureaucrat in the city:  Fire marshalls, police officers, zoning clerks, give his every move extra scrutiny- NLDC employees call him at home and vowing to force him out of his home.  When he sold they made him promise not to tell what the state paid for his buildings and he has to remove the tennants before he gets paid. 

Would anyone like to temporarily move into my neighborhood and give these city workers a few difficulties in collecting their spoils?

Dude, that's a total extorsion racket! We're going to use the littany of regulations, etc. and enforce those laws mercilessly so you'll have no choice but to give in. How's that not a conflict of interest! 

Nothing more the thugs.

Ocean-based animal dung is lower than any land-based animal dung.

Wow, they've been living with that harassment for years.

Boy how many times have we heard this sort of scenario? gag orders during/after trials, website takedowns like Larken Rose etc. .... it all seems to be about silencing the truth about the thugs.

What are you planning?
Are you going so Von Winkle will get his money?

I wondered too.  By staying you get in the way of Bill's ability to be done with it.

[TackleTheWorld]

Right, Lloyd.

If Bill is ready to leave, I won't hamper him.

But it looks like he's not ready yet.
Look, that garage is full of machinery.  It will take a while to clear that out. How about all those motorcycles and his hum vee?  Where are those going to go?

There is the Mashantucket Pequot Museum and Research Center and the Mohegan tribe.

Also, there are the Mashantucket Pequot and Mohegan casinos on the nearby reservations.

Do these count?

[Russell Kanning]

That sure has been a crazy place.
Are the vultures circling?

[Lloyd Danforth]

The 1636 -38 King Phillips War was a bloody massacre which occurred throughout the seaboard area including New London.  Those recognised native bands have the direct lineage and now the money to do what ever acquisition they please.  Technically the municipality that stole the land should have offered it the native bands first.  The native bands could step in and declare that the land should have been offered to them first.  I think the fact that there is an effort to put a historical museum on the grounds is an admission of the historical significance of this desecreted if not hallowed native band land.  This would be the TKO for NLDC and they richly deserve such a taking.  The Kelo 6 could become honorary members of native band.

Note to the uninitiated:  Do not smoke deer antler .  Understand you will have one hell of an outer body experience.   

The funny thing about this is for hundreds of years the claim was that all of those indians were killed.  Yet, today, their decendants run casinos.

Sounds like the fight is almost over, and the state has won.  Their boot has effectively stomped out property rights in CT.  The alliance has crumbled.  When Bill says it's time, you should probably come home to NH, Lauren.

You've done an awesome job. 

I hope that if this ever happens in NH, the property owners don't cut and run.

I'd like to think that these test cases are exactly where owners should not cut and run but rather stay until the end and, if necessary, go out in a blaze of glory.

[Pat K]

Hey tough guy feel free to go to New London there are some empty properties still there. You can move in and go out in your own blaze of glory.
