One of every three state civil asset forfeiture seizures happen in this county, pop. 17,692. Proponents say it combats the drug trade and saves taxpayer money. Critics say it’s highway robbery.
There’s very little reason to do so. You could get robbed by anyone on the way to wherever you’re going, it just so happens to be the police this time. I don’t really understand the “I don’t trust banks” nonsense. All that said, fuck the cops, and fuck this civil forfeiture shit.
I know they can seize other things than money but I always make a point to carry very little cash whenever I travel.
