RE: A $500,000 Traffic Stop

in #justice6 years ago

drug dealing for example is a victimless crime except for the thousands of people killed in the trade and the tens of thousands killed by their illicit product. I think all drugs should be legal mostly because when they are then it won't be armed teenagers on the corners shooting each other selling unlabled, dangerous, impure products produced by transnational gangs that cannot be safely used. Walgreens and CVS sell opiates across the street from each other but their employees never have shoot outs. Like the article mentioned the case is not really against a person it is against property. What articles like this never mention is that most of the time people don't even try to get their property back because it was ill gotten and they don't want to have to incriminate themselves by trying to claim it. If your property is seized wrongfully it's really easy to get it back. It's a drag and inconvenient but so is everything else in life.
