The Badge Gang never quits. Government-approved theft is their latest thing according to the Canadian Boadcasting Corporation which has issued a warning to Canadians not to carry any more cash into the U.S. than they’d care to lose to a cop:
“There’s a shakedown going on in the U.S., and the perps are in uniform. Across America, law enforcement officers — from federal agents to state troopers right down to sheriffs in one-street backwaters — are operating a vast, co-ordinated scheme to grab as much of the public’s cash as they can; ‘hand over fist,’ to use the words of one police trainer.”
It’s the assets confiscation racket of the drug warriors, apparently now being used in some states without charges or convictions. Texas is about average on assets confiscation abuse, but, to my knowledge, there’s no cash seizures without charges or convictions going on. If they ever do happen here, there’s going to be hell to pay.
