Will the supreme Court rule on civil forfeiture?

The mere idea that a citizen can't go around with a few thousand bucks in his pocket because the cops can legally just take it away "because it's suspicious" is just ludicrous. Defies EVERYTHING that's right, honest and just. A perfect example of a police state policy.

I walk around with a G on me regularly and often times more depending on the day. Just because everyone else is broke doesn't mean I get to be looked at like some sort of a criminal. If I'm doing nothing wrong then carrying cash is NOT a crime. Doesn't matter if I'm walking around with a movie briefcase w/$100,000 cash in it. I've done nothing wrong.

That's as bad as having my car taken away just in case I might use it to get a DUI someday.

This stripping everyone of their freedoms in the same of safety is horse shit.
