Well, my comment specifically said that I basically felt that any cop doing civil forfeitures except in extremely limited circumstances is a dirtbag. Apparently these happen (at least) several thousand times per year. I’d argue that anyone who participates in these forfeitures after the fact or must approve them as they come in (DA’s, police captains, etc.), along with anyone that trains, orders, or encourages these officers to do them (again, except in all but the most obvious cases), is also a dirtbag. So for thousands of these to happen each year, a not-insignificant percentage of the 900,000 number you quoted are actively involved or at least complicit in the state-sponsored armed robbery of US citizens. That is unacceptable.
