what the Constitution actually means is up to the interpretation of the Supreme Court.

On the issue of property seizure, I believe that the court has already ruled its constitutional - I can't remember the name of the case, so I can't look up their reasoning. The Earl Warren court - in my opinion - definitely would not have allowed this.

On the Patriot Act, I believe there are unconstitutional provisions - but, you need to have standing, and then get the court to agree with you. So far, no one has been able to do that.
