Civil asset forfeitures totaled $2.5 Billion in 2010 [1] , or approximately $8 per citizen of the country. Keep in mind that if the police hand isn't in your pocket, it's in someone else's.
This is bullshit and needs to stop. It's leading to bad places and actually makes me fear and disrespect the police, which is totally inverted from police's purpose!
