The last two holdouts in New London, Conn.'s Fort Trumbull neighborhood agreed Friday to give up their land to make way for private development, ending a battle that went all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court.

Susette Kelo, the lead plaintiff in the case, agreed to have her pink cottage moved elsewhere in New London.

"Even though she lost her land, the little pink home that launched a national revolution is safe, and it's going to stand as a testament to her heroic struggle and the struggle against eminent domain abuse throughout the country," said Scott Bullock, a spokesman for the Institute for Justice, which represented the homeowners.

Pasquale Cristofaro, the other holdout, has agreed to give up his home but is entitled to purchase a new one in the neighborhood at a fixed price if new homes are built.

Maybe Susette Kelo isn't losing her house. But she's losing the right to live in her house where she wanted to -- on the land on which it was built, the land she owned for decades and chose to continue to live on.

Thanks to the complete bastardization of the intent of eminent domain, thousands of other folks around the country will now be facing the loss of their property rights to the whims of greedy, covetous governments everywhere. No property owner is immune. Your personal property rights mean nothing anymore.
