Should the Air Force make these property owners give up their land?

Mixed feelings. I understand the government's desire for the land but I am not in favor of the government taking people's land by force.

With bombs falling all around you, would you want to keep the land?

Ahhh, emminant and superior domain.  And fact is, cities, counties, states and the fed can do it. And they will. The family is asking for the moon, and won't get it (I think they are really over valuating mineral rights).  Expect a court ordered settlement, 7-10 million.
