I've lived here a long time and come to the realization through observation that the NYPD operates like a private security force for capital. Their primary concern is to defend private property, the people themselves come second. The "community outreach" they do is just enough to keep us from getting accusatory.

And of course the more private property one has, the better the protection...

Civil Forfeiture means private property can be a liability unless one has a lot of extra liquidity to fund a legal defense.

The rich have so many layers between them and their property, that "Civil Forfeiture" is not an issue, sometimes not even when convicted.
