If you lie, you could get in trouble for that. Chances are they will search the car anyway. Doesn’t matter if it’s unconstitutional or not.  They can also take your car even if you haven’t been charged with a crime. It will be up to you to hire an attorney to get it back. Civil forfeiture  law is just plain wrong and gives the government an incentive to take people’s property without due process.

Zero to 100%, depending on whatever the reason was for the stop.

 

Why would an LEO be asking if you are carrying a large sum of money?

Which is exactly what I have been saying.  You, through your representatives, enacted the law and yes, by dam, you can repeal it by the same method you enacted it.  Feel like showing some love, embrace your politician.

 

Speaking as a former LEO, we can all go back to Baltimore Law . . . the law enforcement you deserve . . . for all I care.   

I also asked "what the hell is a 100% cop lover?" 

Even the cricket is silent.

The cricket is a lot more afraid of you.   

 

What the hell is a "cricket" in your terminology ? to me a cricket is fish bate.

A policeman can within reason choose to enforce whatever laws he chooses. 
I have received tickets for no other reason than not having on my seat belt fasoned, . 
I have received warning tickets for DWI, possessing liquor in a dry country, (both back in about 69, and for speeding in a school zone, when the officer ask me where I worked, I told him and he asked what I thought of an individual co-worker that I knew was an azz. I told him I thought he was an azz, and he tore up the ticket and told me to go on.
So, to a great degree , it is up to the individual cop. 
I have never been asked to show my money, but if I did, they would be disappointed as I seldom carry over $20 in cash on a "rich" day, and mostly less than $5.  

 

My point is , of course, that the policeman can choose either to be a highway thief, of to be an honest person and not to commit highway robbery. , so Bush's law or no, it is still up to the cop.

DO WHAT?

 

A "warning ticket[s] for DWI?"

 

Good god man, how often do you drive drunk?

 

Never in my career have I ever heard of a warning ticket for Driving While Intoxicated / Impaired.

 

Never.

Well, young man, there was a time before MADD came along when if a car was stopped, and the driver was drunk, other people in the car were tested, and the "soberest' one was told to drive straight home and "don't let me see y'all out here again tonight" >
As far as the one I mentioned, it was in 1969, and in Cullman. The cop poured out my remaining vodka, and told the girl in the car with me to drive the rest of the way home (back up here )
The situation for me even being pulled over were that I was driving N on 31, (no I65 at this point) and came upon 157 which was a divided highway , on the ridge of a hill,, no sign to designate that the highway was divided, and just a sign that said 157 and a left arrow. at about two AM., I turned left only to find myself in the wrong lane , but a crossover very close , so I crossed over to the proper lane(s) and a cop was sitting in that crossover. He admitted when I ask that he gave alot of tickets right there for people being in the wrong lane. 
I've had tickets I feel I did not deserve, and I have deserved some tickets I did not get. Karma has a way of sorting it all out. 
I no longer drink and drive, save one , and only one beer I allow myself to have when I have dinner at some seafood restaurant on the Gulf Coast, and as it turns out, my wife swipes most of that. I don't justify what I did, but I never had a wreck driving while drinking , and at the time , there was no big deal. When I was working, during the early 70s, a friend and I carpooled in Memphis. After work, we would always stop at a store and get a large beer to drink on the way home., No need to hide it, nobody cared.

Times have surely changed.

So he or she can steal it.

 

Go to the video I posted earlier and you will see and hear a LEO ask person he pulled over if they had 500 in cash on them.

I ask because that was part of the conversation in this topic, that a cop will do that sometimes.

I've driven with large sums of money on me before. One was because I sold a vehicle for cash & had to go to the bank to deposit it. Sometimes it was because I was going on vacation & had travelers checks & cash both on me.

I was curious if I were stopped for whatever reason because it was said a cop will sometimes ask if you have large sums of money, & take it if you do. I would say no & was curious if they would search me anyway.

Pure bull shi! The real truth is the vast majority of the people " criminals"they have to deal are pure trash!  They should make all of the body camera videos public then you would see the real truth but that would be racist!

Well Jobe since you seem to know that most cops are bad if you ever need help from the law why don't you just call some thug, maybe a thieve or a child molester for help. Maybe you just need to be a law enforcement officer since you know so much about it. You are a topical idiot who just needs to be quiet.

obey the laws and there should be no reason to be stopped. I could not be a cop because I would be fired the first day for brutality having to deal with a world full of idiots.

The videos we see are of usually bad behavior of the police.  The thousands of hours of video of them dealing with criminals and idiots in a professional manner are rarely shown.

 

However, you appear to speak of more personal knowledge, as well. Just what is your experience with the police to know them so intimately?

To me, one bad cop ruins him/herself, I still view the thousands of good

LEOs not ruined, why would I pass bad judgment on the innocent.

A better answer than mine, Jack.
