Johnnie Stevens, Vet with Cancer Losing His Home

Hannity and Colmes tonight had a very disturbing piece on that is not even listed on the website, and I cannot find anything AS YET online about it.

But we need to be alerted to this, and pass it on.

Johnnie Stevens is a WWII Battle of the Bulge Veteran who now has cancer, and lived his life, prepared to die in his own home. However, someone else has designs on his property, and he has now been fighting, according to his attorney, for a year, for the RIGHT to stay in that home. 'Emminent Domain' is again being claimed to force him out of his home, NOT for a road or something that is meant by this, but once again for a 'private business' to take his property for gain. Head Start was mentioned. The property around his home is already being developed.

Instead of being able to live out the remaining time he has left, this elderly man is being forced to watch this 'progress', and fight a costly battle to retain his rights to that home!

This is disgusting. The Kelo case was bad enough, and was wrong, IMHO. But this is just another case of wrong use of eminent domain, and should be stopped now.

More to follow as I can find it on the web.

God bless
