True.
Reason:

The police will take your property, yet you are never convicted of a crime. Sounds like an Orwellian fantasy in a dystopian universe, far from something that would happen in modern America, right? Think again. This practice is known as "civil asset forfeiture." Civil asset forfeiture happens when a person’s property is permanently taken from them even though they never were convicted or pled guilty to a criminal offense. Property taken through asset forfeiture is theoretically used in the commission of a crime or obtained through criminal activity, such as drug trafficking.

It's a way for law enforcement officials to seize millions of dollars worth of cash and property every year. Depending on state law, the law enforcement agency generally gets to keep the profits from the sale of these assets in many cases. Some have called it "policing for profit" or highway robbery, others believe it's a valuable tool that aids law enforcement and helps weaken criminal organizations by hitting them in the wallet, so to speak.

What was the most significant governmental action in the 1960s and 1970s to radically change the EMS situation?
Svet_ta [14]

Several Medical and Law experts gathered together and debated the formation of a new half government half privatized department to assist the Fire Department and Police in the field faster than the hospital could. In fact back then even experts debated to make a law that drivers must yield to emergency vehicles. However that law didn't become official until 1996 when a Paramedic was struck and killed by another vehicle.
