Taking property from those whom you have not convicted of any crime -- and as I understand it, are, in fact, therefore INNOCENT UNTIL PROVEN GUILTY -- is stealing. Even -- perhaps especially -- when government does it. "Equitable sharing" is equitable only among the thieves.

Last year's bill to restrict such actions (just a little, since it has no effect on the feds) has been retooled, and today, 2/19/2015, the NH House Judiciary Committee hears testimony on HB636, "relative to forfeiture of property" -- civil asset forfeiture.
