YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Did you know that police can take your stuff without charging you with a crime? It’s part of a process called “civil asset forfeiture,” where the people stealing your stuff look a lot like the people you’d ordinarily call for help. It’s like a shady game of Cops and Robbers—where the cops ARE the robbers! Watch and tell us what you think of civil forfeiture in the comments.

We the Internet TV is the weirdly informative love child of comedy, politics, and online life. Keep being weird, Internet.

( Find out if you’re a criminal!? Hint: You probably are! )
