Now, if these folks decided to take up arms and defend their land, would you still be on their side?

You have no legal recourse to stop them from bulldozing your brand new house

Considering the source of this article I guarantee there is MUCH more to this story than meets the eye.
I’m pretty sure this falls somewhere within the best use of land laws. Apparently the land had a much better use for it rather than a run down neighborhood.

Those who are willing to be the most ruthless always win. The pacifists always lose, because the anti-pacifists kill them.

Actually, you do get fair market value. You get full appraised value.
