That means if you search a car, arrest a suspect, harass a citizen - and you aren't absolutely, completely justified in doing so - then you lose your house.

Are people's homes regularly confiscated if they break into cars or harass people?

I'm unaware of any legal code, federal or state, which contains "loss of house" as a scheduled penalty for a misdemeanor - or even a felony.

My post was regarding the loss of immunity - the civil immunity police have when performing their job. The police should be personally responsible for their actions in civil court, just like the rest of us. They screw up, get sued and lose their 'stuff'.
