[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]California, Ft Reno (DC), and Chevy Chase cases are all in the 20th century and the local government kicking people off their property without fair market compensation. Like, people alive TODAY had their grandparents kicked off those properties. This is very recent history with a short family tree of heirs. People bringing up slavery from the mid 1800s are just trying to distract from the issue. [/quote] The (very significant) difference is that the land in the CA case was controlled by the government. If I understand correctly, the Ft. Reno and Chevy Chase cases are all privately owned. The local governments can't easily dispose of the land other than through eminent domain (and ironically, the California case, as well as a host of preexisting caselaw, suggests that the use of eminent domain for these purposes is problematic).
