Not to get too political, but the US is built on expropriation. From Indigenous peoples, the British, Mexicans, and a variety of other folks. It's baked into laws and policies like eminent domain and civil asset forfeiture. The biggest issue is who is being targetted and why. Heck, even taxation is a form of expropriation. This is also not unique to the US - the political aspect is how and why expropriation happens.
