Eminent Domain Horror in Arizona
ASU is using eminent domain to seize an 89 year old man’s 124 year old home that he’s owned for 50 years. He turned down their $850k offer. Now they’re forcing him out. Just an old man living in peace and the government can still take it.
This is terrifying.
I’m a stay at home mom. I homeschool our four young children. I manage our homestead and a large garden that accounts for 50% of our family’s food. I run a business and serve in our churches music ministry and at the local community theater. Like many of us, I’m busy. I find it hard to sit down and gather my thoughts long enough to write anything organized or coherent. But what is happening in our lives regarding Lucy and my husband is enough to make me take the time.
This is our first year studying the Constitution in our homeschool. I find it wholly important that we teach our children to truly understand individual liberty, natural rights, and the balance between government power and the freedom of ordinary people to live their lives in peace.
Ironically, while teaching these very principles, we have found ourselves living through a situation that has challenged them in real time.
At the heart of the American dream is the idea that we should be able to live our lives in peace without unnecessary intrusion from the government or otherwise.
That principle is woven throughout our Constitution and Bill of Rights.
The Fourth Amendment protects the right of people to be secure in their homes and property from unreasonable intrusion by the government.
The Ninth and Fourteenth Amendments recognizing that Americans possess natural rights beyond those specifically listed in the Constitution—rights like the freedom to peacefully live on your property, rights to personal privacy, to raise your children according to your values, build a homestead, make decisions for your family, and exist without constant harassment or interference from neighbors or government officials.
The Tenth Amendment reminds us that governmental power is to remain limited, and that authority ultimately rests with the people—not with unelected bureaucrats or neighbors who attempt to weaponize the system to control every detail of someone else’s private life.
The overwhelming response from Americans across the country regarding Lucy has reinforced exactly that. Thousands of ordinary people from every background have spoken up and challenged what is happening, reminding us that the voice of the people still matters when systems fail to exercise common sense, restraint, or compassion.
Still, somehow, we have reached a point where a family—MY family—can be harassed for years, dragged through the system, publicly slandered, financially devastated, and have their beloved dog taken away over a situation that common sense should have resolved in five minutes.
We are supposed to be a nation where families can raise their children, care for their animals, work their land, and just live without becoming targets.
A free society cannot survive when laws, complaints, and bureaucracy are weaponized against ordinary people simply because others dislike how they live.
Live and let live should not be controversial in America. Yet here we are. Cameras being pointed into our yard. Multiple court visits because of our farm operations. Slander, libel and gossip being used to publicly smear our character and twist the truth. Lucy is locked away today because people, both in government and in our own community, refused to honor the simple principle of live and let live.
Quite frankly—I don’t care what others think about me. We all have to answer to God someday, and that truth is very real to me. I will continue to extend grace and to forgive. But what I will not do is watch my freedoms and those of my family be squashed because of weaponized technicalities of the law and bullies who abuse the system to intimidate and harass.
What has happened to our family should alarm every American—no matter your politics. Perhaps it does—and that is why our Lucy has become “Americas Dog”.
The fight continues—until Lucy is home and beyond. Laws needs to change so this is never allowed to happen to another family again. The future rights of our children depend on it.

@DrShayPhD No we don’t WORSHIP Mary, we adore her. Jesus adored his mother and so should we. We pray to Mary to intercede on our behalf. And I’ll add, if you’re happy and content with your religion, why bash ours?
This viral footage perfectly explains why Israel maintains such strict security checks, security fences, checkpoints and walls at its borders.
The Muslim terrorist is Fatma Amarna, a Palestinian Muslim woman in her 40s. She illegally infiltrated Israel from Jenin, reached the Old City of Jerusalem with a knife under her full Islamic veil, and according to her own interrogation, wanted to sacrifice her soul for Allah by carrying out jihad against non-Muslims — hoping to reach paradise through her death.
The Israeli police officer reacted instantly. He used his body to push the terrorist to the ground and neutralized her with physical force. He deliberately chose not to shoot her with his weapon because he feared that innocent bystanders in the area could be harmed.
This is the daily reality Israel faces: Muslim terrorists who see the murder of others as a holy act of worship to Allah. Without the security barriers, thousands more innocent Israelis would be slaughtered in the streets.
The world loves to condemn Israel’s security measures as “apartheid” or “oppression.”
The truth is simple: Israel builds walls and fences because the other side keeps sending terrorists who want to kill people as human sacrifices for the sake of Allah.
Share this video. The world must see the constant threat Israel lives with — and the incredible restraint its security forces show every single day.
@RedWaveCrewHP Please say this is satire 💔 does the little girl know that that was the last time she was going to see her “mother” ? My stomach actually hurts listening to this 😡
@African_Spring@tufdave She’s the problem. Either she’s incredibly difficult to be in a marriage with or, she’s terrible at choosing a spouse. Either way, she’s the problem.
🚨 BREAKING: Governor DeSantis is calling for the IMMEDIATE IMPEACHMENT of Judge Tiffany Baker.
Judge Baker released a child rapist who was a KNOWN danger to society.
While out on bail, the rapist tortured and killed a 5 year old little girl.
Should she be impeached?
@eurofounder I think what you meant to say was THANK YOU to the drs who saved your wife’s life. Why didn’t you take out travel health insurance? I did when I traveled abroad. Shameful comments. Thanks for not coming back!
