Run by the Institute for Justice, The Castle Coalition (your home is your castle -- get it?) teaches home and small business owners how to protect themselves and stand up to greedy governments and developers who seek to use "eminent domain" to take private property for their own gain -- "taking", in Constitutional terms.
