The war on drugs destroyed our bill of rights so nanny state enablers’ can feel good.
Don't get caught.
Or go into politics...
Good advice, but even if the search is later deemed to be illegal, your cash is gone.
Don’t carry large amounts of cash
Keep a receipt that shows where your cash came from
Don’t keep all your money in the USA
Understand that every Right you were granted under the Constitution has been steadily compromised.
The loss of freedoms under the guise of the War on Drugs is enough of a reason to end it.
“WOD” was nothing but the USA backing one cartel to minimize violence over competition.
Drug money is so easy to make and any monkey can do it. Violence (private or state sanctioned) determines who gets to sell.
IMO, that is the whole story
Are criminal illegals excluded here, too?
Of course they are.
Look, if you’re not doing anything wrong, you’ll never have these hassles. Cops are here to help us all! They need to be given latitude to do their jobs. Stop committing crimes and this stuff will stop. Besides, who’s to say Joseph Rivers wasn’t guilty of something? That’s a pretty suspicious name.
I live in a small town. My bank would have warned me if I was dumb enough to try such a thing.
I know better, but still...the bank should have warned the guy.
Do not answer their questions outside your name and address and do not allow a search without a warrant.
Did you forget the sarcasm tag?
Legalizing drugs is not going to fix law enforcement.
Combating drug use is the reason behind thousands of rights stealing laws in the country. Get rid of the WOD and you eliminate the reason to have these laws.
Worse than asset forfeiture is no knock raids on innocent people who end up dead.
No, legalizing drugs won’t fix law enforcement and government.
If you want to fix law enforcement and government then you have to fix it, not just leave everything the same, but take drugs off the list.
No, it won’t “fix law enforcement” but it will repair untold damage done to the US Constitution.
I would venture to guess that it is ILLEGAL for the bank to warn people. A bank is told to report anyone even inquiring about the laws and seizure stuff.
Look, I’m just saying cops have an impossible job. We need to support them no matter what they do. Sure, maybe they make a few mistakes, but who doesn’t? It’s time we get behind the police! Besides, all of us are guilty of SOME crime or another. If they don’t catch us for the crimes we DID commit, how can we complain about them catching us for the crimes we DIDN’T commit? They should keep the seized cash, and maybe should charge storage fees for it, too...
If you want a more constitutional government, then fight to end immigration, not to legalize drugs.
