[LPIL - Board of Directors] EMAIL BALLOT Motion

[Blake Hanson]

Good evening again!

As Civil Asset Forfeiture is morally, ethically, and logically abhorrent 
and a clear violation of the natural and human rights of individuals; 
and ending it is a win for Liberty -- I vote AYE on this motion to 
endorse the aforementioned petition.
