Fun fact! The police are the largest gang of armed robbers in the country, collectively stealing more money than all other armed robberies and burglaries combined, and it's totally legal for them

Civil asset forfeiture is one of those things where when you hear about it your first reaction is that it must be some fringe conspiracy theory because there's no way the police could get away with something like that, right? But no, it really is that bad and it's done completely in the open. Cops can just steal your shit out of "suspicion" and the process of getting it back is deliberately labyrinthine and difficult.

Can you prove your inherited grandmother's engagement ring actually belongs to you? Receipt please! Oh you don't have one. It's ours to auction off now!

And the father of civil asset forfeiture was DNC centrist darling and father of the Israeli genocide of Palestinians himself, Joe racist-dipshit biden, who belongs in prison along with trump and many other american politicians.

Well that’s sadly educational. Thanks for the info.

I first read about it years ago and you captured my reaction perfectly.
