This shite needed to change, anyway. It’s oast time to revisit Civil Asset Forfeiture laws. Wasn’t this recently challenged in another state.

This doesn't mean what you think it does.

Sections of the wall have been proven to be 90-95% effective at stopping illegal crossings. But please, put more of your ignorance out on full display.

Yeah, if land is taken, the owners will be compensated...

I just went through it with one of my vacation properties and a highway coming through... I was fairly compensated...

Civil Asset forfeiture is OK as long as it's not our citizens?


Yes...because any assets hemd by illegals in our country are not civil.

Obviously that money was being used to fund something else before the proposed wall. All it will do is shift around funds as whatever that money was previously being used for will need to be replaced.

You were lucky. That rarely happens when eminent domain is asserted.

why do you fricking care what we do with seized propery from illegal aliens?


I don't care, but the DOJ and the law enforcement agencies who stand to get this money probably care.

That would be a solid compromise. A win for everyone. The more money we seize, the more wall we get.
The more WALL we build the more money we will seize!!

You know, I hear this often but have seen it done several times and in each I have seen, the "fair market value" was actually the going value of the property at the time... Now, just because a landowner wants $1million for a $400K piece of property, does not make it a $1million piece of property...

Fairly compensated does not mean "got rich"...
