He said later in his post that he believes that legals should be able to do whatever they want with their money. That means he's in agreement with you on this issue, particularly since you've pointed out that the plaintiffs are legal.
I basically agree with stevo's position. While I sympathize with illegals as human beings, and I'm often disappointed by the kind of vitriolic language used when discussing them... ultimately, if they aren't here legally, the government is perfectly within its rights to seize their funds in this way.
As roachboy points out, though, it's not much of a solution to the problem.
