        Civil asset forfeiture is unjust and unconstitutional. It's a big-government scheme to take people's property without due process. End it. https://twitter.com/paulareidcbs/status/887697111374024705 …

        It does. You can sue to get your money/property back, but most people don't.

        Looking good to the base and blaming liberal courts for failure is the new modus operandi. Successful lawmaking is moot.
