I'm afraid you'll be disappointed. SCOTUS has in principle upheld civil asset forfeiture a number of times. The real solution will necessarily be a political one, not a judicial one. That means enough people will need to be convinced that they pressure their representatives at every level to change the law.
I feel dirty right now because of what I am about to say. I completely agree with 86.
I've had those moments as well where I agreed with 92 or seebell. I felt like it was an outer body experience as the aliens "probed" me. Needless to say, I took a shower for the remainder of the day. The Jim Carrey shower scene in "Ace Ventura" comes to mind.
I shower after reading Tide1986's posts. I wear a full body condom before even clicking on a DBF post!!:biggrin:
Yup...no one's crying over that at all: http://reason.com/blog/2017/04/04/irs-seized-17-million-from-innocent-busi
IOW, 91% of the time the IRS had no justification for taking the money. I'll bet other programs have similar rate of abuse.
