"Does ANYONE care about the Nets NJ fans???"
"This is a disgrace and an abuse of power"
"Bruce Ratner & co. just looking to make a few bucks at the expense of NY/NYC taxpayers."
"No "stadium". We've totally gentrified this community to the point where there is no longer any minorities due to a lack of affordable housing. Yes, we've priced them right out of their own community. Why support a project that might bring in lower income"
"don't ruin brooklyn!"
"the intersection of Atlantic and Flatbush Ave. has been an air pollution hot spot for over 20 years. This project is not based on any "community needs plan' developed by civic officals in my life time."
"Obviously an abuse of eminent domain because it does not meet the definition "for the public good." Presently, the worst areas of Brooklyn are characterized by this type of development."
"don't take the sky away"
"Stop the rich and save our homes"
"This is an outrage, Im 77 years old, and lived in Brooklyn all my life...I can't believe this"
"It's New Jersey's team and it should remain that way. It shouldn't be moved at the expense of NJ sports fans and Brooklyn residents who will lose their homes! The Nets will always be New Jersey's team. The fans will come."
"This is not just a bad idea for the neighborhood, but for the borough. I moved out of Manhattan to get away from this kind of development. Marty Markowitz will not get my vote when his term as borough president come up."
"no way"
"Keep Nets In Jersey"
"NO STADIUM we like our neighborhood just like it is"
"Don't uproot families for Billionaire developers!"
"New York already has the Knicks, the Rangers, and the Islanders in the NYC metro area..please let New Jersey keep THE ONLY TEAMS WE HAVE!! I love my Devils and Nets!!!"
