We're not talking about anyone obtaining anything illegally. We're talking about confiscation of property simply because the government suspects someone of drug activity on that property. Certainly, you can't define that as constitutional with a straight face.

Oh, I'm sorry. I thought you were talking in generalities about the 5th amendment, quoting a section of it and all.

If I would have known you were referring to this particular case regarding Texas asset forfeiture laws and how they are applied to property involving drugs, why I would have replied to that particular issue.

Oops. Look at the time. Gotta go.
