I agree. I can't read his mind, but I don't think he was referring to skipping due process in the long term.
Let's face it, although we supposedly "presume innocence" until proven guilty, We put people in jail, demand bail for some to get out (extortion), all in advance of a trial! The presumption is of guilt! If you can't make bail, you may remain in prison until trial. If the verdict is guilty, the court may give credit for time served. So it is presumed a punishment. However, if the verdict is Not Guilty, you get no compensation for the time you were punished for something you didn't do. If you pay bail, you are not compensated for the cost of a bond, if you opt for that, or compensated for interest or other income you forfeit from not having possession of that money.
Since this is our policy, it is certainly in keeping with that policy to confiscate weapons from someone suspect until a determination can be made. Our problem is abusing that authority for convenience.
