They're Only Your Rights When "WE" Say Their Your Rights


In a public meeting for River Falls Fire Dept, Greenville County Councilman Joe Dill said.

 "Yes, we are working on extending the Swamp Rabbit Trail north through Marietta SC."

When asked about private property rights, Councilman Dill said,

"They have the right to sell their land if they want to."

When asked, "What if they don't want to sell."

Dill had no answer.

Tonight on WYFF, the NBC News affiliate for the SC Upstate, residents near Pelham Rd in Greenville are opposing the building of a CVS.

The same opposed a new Walmart.

The interesting part is ... a number of the people in the audience and speaking out against the issue are the same bike trail / "green use" crowd.

Interesting that they are claiming property rights when it comes to commercial development, but if it's "green" they could care less about property rights.
