I know they can seize other things than money but I always make a point to carry very little cash whenever I travel.
There's very little reason to do so. You could get robbed by anyone on the way to wherever you're going, it just so happens to be the police this time. I don't really understand the "I don't trust banks" nonsense. All that said, fuck the cops, and fuck this civil forfeiture shit.
