All cars...brown cars, white cars, black cars and shockingly green cars are all at risk. The burden of proof of the cars innocence lies with the innocent car. It's a F'd.

It's not conspiracy. Do yourself a favor like he said and look it up.

Here's a start: https://www.aclu.org/issues/criminal...rfeiture-abuse

and http://ij.org/report/policing-for-profit/

and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Civil_..._United_States

This is not a fake moon landing or jet fuel melting steel subject. This is 100% fact and everybody, including you, should be pissed it happens.

Yeah, Civil Asset Forfeiture and the abuse of it is like, well-documented and well-known.

I'm well aware of the notion. It's unlikely, especially in Orange, CA by the local PD. 2 or 3 cars? Ok. 17 cars from affluent owners? Not buying it.

Here is my prediction:


"Additionally, Chowdhry said that police seized a GoPro camera at the time of the event, along with a list of contact names and phone numbers of the other drivers."


They found video on that GoPro of something that they did not like.

damn it. not enough time, ill read it when i clock out of work. someone like this comment to remind me.

[Mr.ac]

I'm calling bs on this story.

Mostly college student? I rest my case, I already know how they drive. Especially with America's daf driver's ed. Cops can't just impound 17 cars for this long if there isn't something fishy anyway especially when it's on the news.

I don't know what the police are like in the U.S. but in Canada policing for profit is pretty much impossible. There is a chain of evidence and an individual officer wouldn't be able to take anything large very easily, especially not car parts. It would take a rather large conspiracy. Also there are cameras on the cruisers with audio. I assume you must have that tech in U.S. as well? Probably the dash can would be a good place to start. Many of our officers have uniform cameras that record interactions as well. Also a good place to look.

Sounds a lot more likely

In the U.S. Individual cops aren't stealing cars, property, etc. Police agencies themselves misuse asset seizure laws large scale and sell the property at auction as a way to fund their police departments. It's ugly, real, well documented and not some kind of conspiracy or overreaction like some in this thread allude to.

Crazy. They're federally or municipally funded here.

Strawman argument? Good.
