Kelo's Christmas Card

Check out this brief news item about holiday cards sent by Susette Kelo to city officials and members of New London's development agency. She says she will never forget what they -- and five members of the Supreme Court -- have done to her. And rightly so... they infamously took her home and handed it over to developers who wanted to build commercial buildings on that land (not for public use).

The responses by those who received her holiday cards are disgusting: they consistently say that their were actions were "nothing personal" against her. Nothing personal! We'll just take your home away from you, by force... but its nothing personal. Would that response work for murderers or rapists? Oh, I didn't know the person I assaulted -- I would have attacked anyone who was in my way or crossed my path -- you see, it was "nothing personal, so you have no right to be upset with me." Or more similar, what about the person who steals, say from a 7-11 or a bank? Could they respond with "nothing personal"?!! How pathetic they are... but thanks to Stephen Hicks for the link.
