Well, sure there are some agencies not very happy about this ruling...
Good, screw them. There were far too many instances of people who had not committed any crimes having their property stolen and then given an arduous process to then try and recover what was wrongly taken.
Just curious, was that the real RBG or the clone?

Good money if we could bet would be that was a doppelganger/clone if the D's pattern of 'anything it takes' is any indication.

So does this civil asset forfeiture ruling also extent to firearms? Makes that 9-0 decision very powerful if so because it has been used on accusations of mental/emotional instability to justify firearm theft by state/local governments.

The court’s 9-0 ruling was authored by Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. “The Eighth Amendment’s Excessive Fines Clause is an incorporated protection applicable to the States under the Fourteenth Amendment’s Due Process Clause,”

I'll bet you every penny you have it was the real one with 10-1 odds in your favor but I doubt you'd ever pay up.

Since the Left would do ANYTHING to win and keep their ability to use the courts to rewrite the laws (as it appears they do now IMO), you would stand to lose a lot.
