What a crock of **** that guy is spewing. As a retired Law Enforcement Officer I am very familiar with Civil Forfeiture or what we called Asset Forfeiture. Not once did I or anyone I worked with pull over a car for a minor traffic infraction and then seize a wad of cash that the driver or one of the passengers had on them and then say "have a nice day!" and let them drive off. There's a whole lot more to that story. That youtube guy is only telling a very small part of a story to have his audience get riled up and is nothing more than a hater of Law Enforcement. People love to hear stuff like this to justify in their own minds how their own actions are ok even though the rest of society says they're not. It always amazed me that people believe the theory that breaking the Law and getting caught can be justified because a dirty cop was exposed in the news a couple of years ago. Therefore all cops are dirty. Therefore their illegal actions should go unpunished. There are thousands of people that think this exact way and guys like this youtube person rely on them to remain relevant online.
I really appreciate your point of view. I stopped watching at about 2 1/2 minutes in after he claims a LEO can expect you to show him what's in your pocket. What a crock.
Does it happen? Yes, there are a few crooked cops out there. How often does this happen? If it happened as much as he infers we would be reading regular reports on social media and from legitimate reporting agencies.
