Boston Globe editorial on Kelo

Unlike like their owners, the New York Times,the Boston Globe isn't too happy with the Kelo decision:

Bostonians know something about the abuse of the Fifth Amendment, which gives government the authority to take property through eminent domain ''for public use." The West End story of the 1950s still evokes images of thoughtless government officials who allowed a colorful, close-knit neighborhood of modest homes to be leveled for the development of Charles River Park, an undistinguished high-rise complex catering to the wealthy. ''Remember The West End," is still a populist battle cry in Boston. New Londoners may soon rally to the cries of ''Remember Fort Trumbull," the targeted neighborhood overlooking Long Island Sound.
