This is what happens when teabaggers decimate Federal, State, and Local budgets.
Most police jurisdictions just set up speed traps to make up for the missing revenue. These assholes dreamed up a more extreme approach.
The truckloads of cash they should be seizing are those in the bank accounts of the criminal 1% and the idiots in government who enable them.
Now having said that.... I'm suspicious of anybody who transports huge amounts of money by 18 wheeler, but that's beside the point.
The only thing you can call that is highway robbery!
Having said that, why in the fuck was that guy carrying $200,000.00 in cash?
Traffic stops are a huge cash cow for cops, check points and that Draconian stop and frisk law in NYC all make you wonder what the true motive is behind these laws.........cash!
This is just another reason why the war on drugs is a failure and we should decriminalize recreational drug use and possession. Treat addiction as a disease, like most rational countries are doing. Not filling up private prisons with nonviolent offenders just to make some corporation rich!
Another reason to hate cops...when these guys are fighting over a traffic stop you know somethings rotten..no drug busts but 10-1 ratio for cash busts..scumbags..
Yeah.......that was the part that was the most distasteful!
Cops fighting other cops for turf.......unreal.
Law enforcement in this country needs a massive overhaul........between pepper spraying lawful protesters, killing innocent people and their Messiah like complex the people they hire to keep us safe leaves something to be desired.
That's why I don't trust them to search my property...
Neither do I but........helping out in an extreme crisis is a little different than what those cops are doing.
That truck was chump change!

Ukraine’s Gold Reserves Secretely Flown Out and Confiscated by the New York Federal Reserve?
The Spoils of War and Regime Change
A Russian Internet news site Iskra (“Spark”) based in Zaporozhye, eastern Ukraine, reported on March 7, that “Ukraine’s gold reserves had been hastily airlifted to the United States from Borispol Airport east of Kiev”.
This alleged airlift and confiscation of Ukraine’s gold reserves by the New York Federal Reserve has not been confirmed by the Western media.
According to Iskra News:
At 2 a.m. this morning [March 7] an unmarked transport plane was on the runway at Borispol Airport (right) [east of Kiev]. According to airport staff, before the plane came to the airport, four trucks and two Volkswagen minibuses arrived, all the truck license plates missing.
Сегодня ночью из Fifteen people in black uniforms, masks, and body armor stepped out, some armed with machine guns. They loaded the plane with more than 40 heavy boxes.
After that a mysterious man arrived and entered the plane.
All loading was done in a hurry.
The plane took off on an emergency basis.
Those who saw this mysterious special operation immediately notified the airport officials, who told the callers not to meddle in other people’s affairs.
Later a returned call from a senior official of the former Ministry of Revenue reported that tonight, on the orders of one of the new leaders of Ukraine, the United States had taken custody of all the gold reserves in Ukraine.” Сегодня ночью из “Борисполя” в США страртовал самолёт с золотым запасом Украины, iskra-news.info. Zaporozhye, Ukraine, March 7, 2014, translated from Russian by the Gold Anti-Trust Action Committee Inc (GATA), emphasis added)
Following this disclosure, GATA’s Secretary Treasurer Chris Powell requested the New Federal Reserve and the US State Department to indicate whether the NY Fed had “taken custody” of Ukraine’s Gold.
A spokesman for the New York Fed said simply: “Any inquiry regarding gold accounts should be directed to the account holder. You may want to contact the National Bank of Ukraine to discuss this report.”
GATA’s similar inquiry of last night to the U.S. State Department has not yet prompted any reply.
Last night GATA called this issue to the attention of about 30 mainstream financial journalists and newsletter writers in the admittedly bizarre hope that they might pose the question as well.
1) The first rule of mainstream financial journalism and particularly financial journalism about gold is never to put a specific critical question about the monetary metal to any of the primary participants in the gold market, central banks. That is, nearly all gold market reporting is, by design, irrelevant distraction at best, disinformation at worst.
2) The true location and disposition of national gold reserves are secrets far more sensitive than the location and disposition of nuclear weapons. Chris Powell, Secretary/Treasurer

While the unconfirmed report regarding Ukraine’s gold reserves has not been the object of coverage by the mainstream financial news, the story was nonetheless picked up by the Shanghai Metals Market at Metal.com. which states, quoting a report from the Ukrainian government, that Ukraine’s gold reserves had been “moved on an aircraft from … Kiev to the United States… in 40 sealed boxes” loaded on an unidentified aircraft.
The unconfirmed source quoted by Metal.com, says that the operation to airlift Ukraine’s gold had been ordered by the acting Prime Minister Arseny Yatsenyuk with a view to safe-keeping Ukraine’s gold reserves at the NY Fed, against a possible Russian invasion which could lead to the confiscation of Ukraine’s gold reserves.
On March 10, kingworldnews, a prominent online financial blog site published an incisive interview with William Kaye, a Hong Kong based hedge fund manager at Pacific Group Ltd. who had previously worked for Goldman Sachs in mergers and acquisitions.
The Spoils of War and Regime Change
Of significance in this interview with William Kaye is the analogy between Ukraine, Iraq and Libya. Lest we forget, both Iraq and Libya had their gold reserves confiscated by the US. According to Kaye, the destination was the New York Fed.
The National Bank of Ukraine (Central Bank) estimated Ukraine’s gold reserves in February to be worth 1.8 billion dollars. According to William Kaye: “That would amount to a very nice down payment to the $5 billion that Assistant Secretary of State Victoria Nuland boasted that the United States has already spent in their efforts to destabilize Ukraine, and put in place their own unelected government.” (KingsWorldNews emphasis added). Kaye also confirmed in the interview that Washington was behind the appointment of the new head of the National Bank of Ukraine (NBU) Stepan Kubiv:
“This would have been his first major decision to transport that gold out of Ukraine to the United States. …Ukraine will … very likely never see that gold again.” (Read Complete interview at KingsWorldNews, March 10, 2014, emphasis added)
Acting prime Minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk accused the Yanukovych government of having stolen Ukraine’s gold reserves. This statement was made on February 27th, less than week prior to the report on the alleged airlifting of Ukraine’s gold to the New York, which is yet to be confirmed.

Git yer money fer nuttin....and yer chicks fer free!
It does show that you can't do anything in secret these days not even in Kiev.
As far as the money grab goes, what they do is gather evidence illegally through taps, then tip off local cops who then reverse engineer an arrest. They can't base a prosecution on the illegal evidence but they know eg the truck is coming through and so just happen to set up a road trap or whatever.
"they" suck
Another one of those classic genius posts, sure to generate responses. You log on the next day to see what your witty gem has produced to find no one gets it and 2 knotheads want to stick their dicks in it... Well played, sir!!

I was just watching a drug show and TN pigs seem to be especially excited to steal your property and actually drain your bank account. If you should reasonably know that your property was involved in the drug trade, they will take it. You don't even have to be there.
This is a fucking war folks. I hate being on the side with less guns. But that's what they want so an outlaw I will be.
