Listen to you preaching to me.
First off,what firearms that I have or don't have in my home are my business.
Until I pass a law making that illegal. At which point you receive a visit from the local swat team.
Since I will be dead, is the illegal warrent to seize the property which I had previously legally owned good for anything? Or will my heirs have to fight the gun-grabbers in court for them? Thanks ahead of time for your thoughts.
Oh no you see what happens is the crime you committed resulted in fines and fees, and they will be astronomical figures, and your seized property will be partially used to pay that fine. The property already in custody, including seized cash, guns and other things will be used towards paying the fine, but since the fine is so high probably won't even cover it. So you see they are actually being nice to not go after further property or seize even more of your estate and leave that for your heirs to inherit.
If they can be portrayed to have been part of a crime they become a valuable asset to seize under asset forfeiture too.
Reminds me of when the ATF got that shipment of Leatherman multitools inscribed with 'Always Think Forfeiture' as a play on their acronym.
I recall an incident in Southern California where they actually demolished a home of a guy heavily into firearms and weapons that made booby traps around their property.
Even though it did not appear there was traps in the home, the fact that the guy was known to make them caused them to declare it to be too dangerous to clear the home which had gun powder and other things clearly visible to the robot and the law enforcement that went in the home. The local law enforcement were afraid of the traps and determined that was the only safe way to clear the property. Needless to say the owner ceased to have that asset too, and also would not have been able to leverage the equity of their home to pay legal costs for their charges too, insuring they were more easily defeated in court as that is how many people pay six figure legal costs for serious cases in order to even have an adequate voice in court.
I recall another guy had his home red tagged and declared unfit habitation essentially bringing its value to almost nothing because he was found to have a tunnel with weapons in it when the fire department came to deal with a small fire. The home was not really dangerous and the tunnel appeared small and well built, but because the tunnel was built without a permit they said it undermined the structure and made it too dangerous and the whole home needed to be red tagged. So since the local government gets the discretion to determine that, they chose to determine it needed to go.
He also wouldn't have been fighting his legal bills with that home's equity.
Oh and if planning a standoff, burning down the house if you do too good of a job holding off the SWAT team is typical strategy. They will just keep launching incendiary gas grenades designed to burn hot and be hard to touch or pickup in an outdoor environment into the house until it catches on fire. At which point you will burn to death, die of smoke inhalation, surrender, or they will shoot you as you try to put out the fire.
You can't win hiding and being defensive. All fights are won through offense. When the fight is brought to you then you have already lost.
