Everything you need to know

It actually isn't "everything you need to know", because this is straight-up misleading. You've removed the two candidates to the left of Pence (Christie and Hutchinson) who did not raise their hands when asked if they would support Trump as the nominee.

Much more likely? What country are you talking about? Assuming we are talking about the United States, this is just not true.

The police are not that cartoonishly evil like most posters here seem to think they are.

I'm aware of what civil forfeiture is.

I read the techdirt article you linked, but it doesn't state how many people were affected, what percentage of people the police interacted with had money or items taken from them, or any data that supports your claim that police are "much more likely to beat you and take it". Moreover, the article did not mention any of the victims being physically beaten by the police before being robbed.

To be clear, I do not support civil forfeiture or the police stealing from anyone. I am just not convinced that a person is significantly more likely to be beaten and robbed by the police.
