And if you run from ASP then the legend called the Byrd man will get you.

@wisdomrules8474 4 ай бұрын

Byrd is the most famous trooper for his PITs, but all ASP troopers can can perform PITs. They have their own training track.

the Money they get from these drug dealers allow the ASP to have dozens of New Chargers in stock...

They don't make Charger's anymore, so they'll probably buy 5.7 Hemi Durango's instead 🤣😅😆

Every road in America is a drug superhighway. Arkansas' stretch of I40 is only a tiny bit of it. I remember having to drive to Louisiana to buy booze. On the way back, there's always a sheriff waiting to pull someone over and bust them for a bottle of whiskey. Same game, alcohol is legal now, though.

What about all of the innocent citizens who have their cash seized without any crime committed? It is not illegal to transport any amount of cash but the cops steal it anyway.

Because the cartels/black market also pay people to move money and obviously if they are hiding it then its for a reason.

Colorado legalized pot and the state went down the toilet. It attracts the low live that does the illegal drugs. Arkansas has enough problems to deal with.

They seize cash meaning 1) they profit from drug dealing 2) if someone has legitimate cash then ASP are highway robbers.

In 20 minutes of driving yesterday in central Arkansas, I counted 32 cars with tags from Louisiana, Texas and Oklahoma .. You see the car trains coming up from Mexico all the time, especially on the weekend.. One car or minivan or small truck towing a train of 2 or 3 others vehicles ..Most of the time without tags and certainly not properly secured for towing .. And I will almost guarantee at least half those cars have drugs in them ..

Policing for profit. That's all this is they even said it themselves in the report hard drugs are not the issue here they're more worried about a plant and policing for profit. All the money they find should not go to the department that finds it It should go to non-profits for homeless veterans that have served this country and deserve better than we give them.

@James-bo1ox 4 ай бұрын

It's a revenue generator. They even take people's money even if they find no drugs and without charging anyone with a crime. Then it's up to the person to go to court and try to get there money back. Talk about highway robbery.

My brother in law was a DOT lieutenant with the Arkansas Highway Police. He was with the Highway Police 34 years. He lived in West Memphis and was in charge of the way stations there. At one time they confiscated $3.75 million. That is the busiest section of road in the entire country where I-55 intersects I-40. He retired about 15 years ago.

considering how poor Arkansas is and the millions of $'s in tax revenue being generated by legal marijuana and FEW, if any of the the issues that were a concern Pre-legalization, arising...maybe, just maybe....it time Ark. Legalizes and... oh, but wait...there goes 90% of the drug busts, so police budget for enforcement, can be cut....so the cops and 'for profit' prisons don't want that...
