If that's the case, the fed will owe private property owners hundreds of billions, after interest is calculated. The last number I saw was 103 million acres of private property seized to create government zoos. Don't know if that total is just fed theft or both state and fed.

I'm sure a judge will find that stealing land is different from stealing water and no compensation is due. Then the fascist theft will continue.

That would be trillions, and yes, it's the case. We also have a precedent for regulatory taking of land in the instance of Hage v. US. You'd better hope these courageous folks continue to win in the court of claims. Hage spent nearly two million pursuing his case if memory serves.
