Police don't even know whose money it is, or where it came from. I think they should be able to keep it.

I'm also aware of the dept that told officer to start playing copyrighted music any time someone started recording them to limit the reach online. They're dirty and corrupt. The place to stand up for your rights is in court. When faced with a possible lunatic with a gun, I will gently push back while being respectful and humble.

It isn't right that it's this way, but I'm not taking the risk.
