"These regulations do not apply to cars that are at least 25 years old, but owners of the grabbed vehicles had no chance to present a defense before their SUVs were taken. The owners were only given until June 23 to file a formal contest to the seizures, which they could not have done because the court did not unseal the case until July 16. US District Judge James C. Fox denied a request to give owners more time to contest the seizure of their property."

Perfect authoritarian thinking. Citizen, you had a chance to appeal and you didn't. You are guilty and now you are talking to the press; another offense. Now be quiet and pay your taxes ... or else.

And they didn’t shoot these people’s dogs?....... I’m stunned!

This seizure is full of holes.

...as I’ve noted before, ANYTHING that gets British Cars off the road is a GOOD THING.

Presuming the government is lying, what do they gain from this?

[Pollster1]

I miss the rule of law.

[driftdiver]

Hard to believe this is happening in America.

Standard Operating Procedure in all banana republics.

Some bureaucrat(s) desires your property and SHAZAM, it becomes contraband to be confiscated by the state. Then after the hearings by a kangaroo court, said contraband is sold or gifted to members of the ruling class.

Be that as it may when did we start sending storm troopers to settle DOT standard violations???
This is pure insanity and someone is going to end up getting killed.

Sounds like payback for some offense against the Obama administration.

What in the world is homeland security having to do with vehicle confescations?

[dynoman]

It’s amazing, and telling, that the fedgov is on top of these 40 vehicles while the border patrol is practically non-existent.

“the vehicle color does not match”

That racist!

[Organic Panic]

I feel safer already.

The government will launder them and sell them at auction. The cash will go for Obama’s new golf clubs.

[FourtySeven]

I’m soooooooooooo relieved my government is pursuing cases like this, keeping me safe from all the eeevil Land Rovers out there belching out ounces, literally OUNCES of the same gas I exhale every day (CO2).

If you dare disagree you are a global warming Luddite denier.

And probably racist. So there. (Sticks out tongue)
