They also do this stuff in Canada and its total B.S !!! There's no innocent until proven guilty ! Its pay for a damn good lawyer to prove your innocent !! upped and resteemed😳😣😠😞😱😡

Excellent and timely post, about an issue that deserves exposure. In fact, everyone should know about this insidious initiative by the powers-that-be.

To realize that this is happening in the USA is rather shocking. (Although there are many who say it's not even surprising, given the developments in policing over the past few decades.)

Even one instance of this theft (euphemistically called "asset forfeiture") is disturbing, and should be enough to be a call to arms, or at least a loud clarion call to resist.

That it proceeds, with little exposure and little resistance, is unsettling and ominous.

Peace and Freedom.


Thanks for telling the truth!

yes

@doitvoluntarily - Really Great post!! Thank You - Civilians all across the US are being taken every single day by our govt and everyone in Washington just turns a blind eye as they all get a piece of the cake in some form or another...

If we as Americans do nothing, nothing will change..

Rising Up individually and as a collective sum is the only way that we can overcome the injustices faced by so many righteous and deserving people

If you listen to Jeff Berwick, if police in mexico do this kind of thing too often, they find themselves missing their head.

We, in The US are so indoctrinated, we have to ask the govern-cement, please stop robbing us.

Unfortunately if these corrupt people are allowed to retain ANY power over us they'll do what they need to in order to get the money. If they need a conviction to get the money they'll be motivated to do whatever they can to get it. More people will go to jail instead of just getting robbed.

It isn't enough to require a conviction. The corrupt cops, lawyers, judges, and law makers will continue to abuse us as long as we allow them to have power.

The US government, the biggest terrorist and extortion organization in world history.
Blattant liars, thieves, and racist thugs, what they do to poor communities with the proposterous war on drugs deffies comprehension!

It's not just feral (def's 2 & 3) and State agencies that are getting rich from this practice.

Municipal police departments are making up for budget shortfalls the same way.

It won't be long before they'll be able to seize your Trezor and compel you to open it because there's no legitimate reason for you to have one.

Absolute theft.

Goverment are ....
To rude to say, they want it all

Mmm money money

💵Politicians are very lucky because people don't think🔰🙀

It's when I try to consider how we revoke these kind of practices that I fall deep into that hole they've named for rabbits.

No victim, no crime.

CAF is legalized larceny. Ironically many governments that use and abuse CAF have become just like the criminal enterprises the law was designed to undermine.

People get due process rights, but our property doesn't. Because you know, that the stuff we own has free will and routinely acts without checking with us first (sarc).

That is injustice , no doubt. This shouldn't go on.

It seems to be all about greed rather than law and justice. Law enforcement agencies are hungry for the green stuff. And their addiction to greed has overpowered their integrity for justice. What happened to checks and balances? Shame on them. Cities have shown their greed with traffic cameras to collect revenue. I sense we are no longer in a world ruled by justice but justice suffocated in a world of greed. Thanks for sharing as it is valuable to shed light on this subject.

Is there anything that the government does which is not theft?
