Timesink was talking about criminals, which implies guilt. You have shifted to talking about the accused, which implies guilt not yet proven or innocence.

Why the shift?

Do you see anywhere in this piece where it talks about confiscating based on suspicion?

If not, then why did you make that jump?

No Jump. As I posted in my previous comment the following line from the end of the article.

Mi>"Mr. Baker said he hopes the legislation will give the SEC seizure powers much like the Drug Enforcement Administration.

I think that is pretty clear. Nevertheless, I understood in the first two sentences of this article where they were headed with this. More reduction of individual rights, it's the nature of our government these days, or hadn’t you noticed.
