Gov’t screws up every program they touch. Why do we allow this?

You are not doing anything wrong are you?

Note that Dinesh D'Sousa has come to the conclusion that the Gov't LEO organizations are criminal enterprises.

Theft. One thing the government does better than the private sector. Where are the Republicans? Coming up with their tax plans to more efficiently rob us.

Essentially, police and other agencies can seize any property at any time. The cost of attempting to reclaim the stolen property is normally more than the property is worth and the attempt is more often unsuccessful than successful.

Driving through Volusia County in Florida in a late model Cadillac or Lincoln will get you stopped by police and any cash will be confiscated. If you refuse permission for a seach there is a police dog nearby that will dutifully “alert” on your car.

In answer to your question of “where are the republicans.”
They’re in line with the ‘rats, waiting for their share of the boodle, of course.

Yet another example of the predictable consequences of electoral politics and voting.

____________________________________________________________________

President GHW Bush, March 05, 1991 =>

Asset forfeiture laws allow us to take the ill-gotten gains of drug kingpins and use them to put more cops on the streets and more prosecutors in court.

In the last 5 years alone, the Justice Department shared over half a billion dollars in forfeited assets with State and local law enforcement.

Maybe the Black Lives Matter crowd has a valid point, after all.
