A heart-breaking story of how brazen, ruthless and just plain evil government can be. They tore down his house he was building and sent him the bill. This is after reneging on an 18 month time period for him to finish the house.
Blatant land grab right here:
Update
"It was an off-and-on thing," he said. "I had to keep renewing my permit."
Strange said the city saw it differently and that McCall had dragged his feet.
"It was a started building that never got finished," he said.
"When the house was torn down, McCall estimated he had spent between $150,000 and $200,000 on the renovations."
"McCall said he was eventually awarded $123,000 in damages in district court, but the city appealed. No final decision has been made. For now, the property sits empty."
- and how much did Mr. McCall have to pay for legal expenses?
"She said she had never once been threatened with demolition or received any type of paperwork on the subject. Then a neighbor called, frantic that the house was being ripped down. By the time Jones got there, half of the structure was gone."
"he said she was unable to stop the crews from finishing the job. The house came down fully furnished, family photos and heirlooms still inside."
This level of cold-hearted evil is absolutely mind boggling. This would never happen in a society free of people who call themselves "government".
