New London not so gracious in victory after Kelo decision

If this won’t make you a libertarian, nothing will. The city of New London, Connecticut, whose successful attempt to confiscate private land for private use was confirmed in the Kelo case, is trying to collect rent going back 5 years from the property owners they molested. C’mon, Congress, you know you want to act rashly and pass a feel-good law for your constituents. Get it out of your system (for about 5 minutes) with this case!
