this is a petition to reform civil forfeiture laws this is a law that affects everyone no matter age race or gender this is a law where if police have "probable cause" they can take away items or money, yes this can help stop crimes like possession and distribution of drugs, and find criminal items the system of this is very flawed and any officer can take any sum of cash you have on you at the time, your house, even your car and you won't be charged with a crime its your property that is charged such as United States v. Approximately 64,695 Pounds of Shark Fins (yes its real) but most police departments can keep almost all money with no regulations to spend it like buying alcohol or a margarita machine (montgomery county texas) with themselves regulating who gets their stuff back
