I find it amusing that the same person that signed civil asset forfeiture into law is quoted as saying we must hold the guilty responsible.
How old are you? If you're old enough, you should know that the need for that law was for use against people like the fictional Tony Montana, to keep them from using their money and assets to continue pissing on our laws, importing poison to Americans.
It is an object lesson in unintended consequences, and the slippery slope of ever more government law and regulation, however. All the more reason to be a staunch conservative.

I think most would agree that writing laws to fight fictional characters is a bad idea.
Eta: that doesnt stop congress from writing laws that fight fictional boogeymen all the time, however.

Was Reagan a staunch conservative?

The consequences were intended, not "unintended".
So when fake conservatives like Reagan sign unconstitutional and morally wrong laws like this into effect, it's merely an unintended consequence? That's bullshite. Try again.
