Why, booby, I thought you'd be in a better mood since Obama came out in support of Sodomites.

Calling the structure a bunker, in the newspaper will distract many people from the idea that it's a property grab. Kind of like if you lived on a few acres up in the hills and they wanted your land (eminent domain). They can get it for a lower price by claiming a safety violation, arresting you, and telling the papers you're a "separatist" living on a "compound".

Is there a law against having a "bunker?"

It's called Oath Keepers and they're comprised of military and police personnel who have taken an oath to refuse orders to disarm American citizens or in anyway violate the Constitution while carrying out their duties.

<br />If someone has the job of stealing another person's home, then maybe they should ask themselves if they are helping their fellow man or harming him by his actions. If there were no minions to do the dirty work, the dirty work wouldn't get done.

Man sues city over seizure of house with underground shelter.

Joe Del Rio was awakened to find city officials at the door of his lifelong home in East Austin, demanding entry. Before it was over, the Police Department's SWAT team and the Fire Department had been deployed, and Del Rio said he was detained and questioned for about 10 hours because of what officials called a multilevel bunker-like space under the house with suspicious and unusual materials.

After the city billed Del Rio in April for about $90,000 in repairs it said were critical to make the home on Canterbury Street safe, Del Rio sued the City of Austin last week for what his lawyers say was a heavy-handed and unconstitutional seizure of his property without compensation.

The ordeal they put me through was unnecessary, Del Rio, now 72, said the afternoon before the second anniversary of his forced eviction. I've gotten the runaround. I think they want the property. Condemning it is a cheap way to get it.
