> Homeland Security To Confiscate Bank Safe Deposit Box Contents

I read this a couple of times and I don’t see where they say they are confiscating anything. They just need to keep precious metals from flooding markets and devaluing the dollar. As usual. The materials technically will remain in your box, and by proxy, in your possession. (Not that confiscation can’t occur later on down the road.)

"She said they were told how only agents from Homeland Security (during such an event) would be in charge of opening safe deposit boxes and determining what items would be given to bank customers.
At this point they were told that no weapons, cash, gold, or silver will be allowed to leave the bank - only various paperwork will be given to its owners. "

I do resent not being allowed to possess all my property. The gov’t is basically a bully (American definition).
