There is (or should be) political justification for that.
They WERE robbed.

It’s a very old story how Eminent Domain was used to build Chavez Ravine.

I know some people who grew up in the area. The anger at what was done to them is DEEP and unrelenting.

Eminent domain has been around for decades if not longer. It happens. There’s a book called Stealing Home that talks about this in detail. I haven’t read it yet but I heard it’s good.

The fifth amendment indirectly addresses it nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation.

They were all paid and the land was seized years before Dodger Stadium was conceived. I don't believe that They all got paid it’s documented in books maybe not what they wanted but they got paid …. When Robert Moses restructured ny and confiscated property from people using imminent domain Overview. Eminent domain refers to the power of the government to take private property and convert it into public use, referred to as a taking. The Fifth Amendment provides that the government may only exercise this power if they provide just compensation to the property

This reparation crap is so absolutely ridiculous…. There’s not a person in the United States especially what’s left of native Americans whose ancestors got screwed ….wtf does anyone in 2024 deserve a penny for what happened when this country was in its infancy …. Every ethnic group got f over and discriminated against …. Hundreds of years have passed anyone alive today who thinks they deserve a nickel are just low life pos!!!!….. it’s another way to continue to keep the poor and unfortunate relying on the govt for handouts ….its what govt wants …. And who’s paying for it ? Taxpayers …. Only way outta the gutter is getting up going to work and have some pride and show responsibility for yourself …sorry I got carried away but I stand by what I said …
