I live in Texas and I was wondering why it is legal for law enforcement agencies to display illegal weapons and used drug paraphernalia they have confiscated within their department's lobbies? Wouldn't that put the whole department in an illegal possession of those items seeing as how we as citizens are not aloud to possess them? I don't care if they are continuing to be used or not. If I just kept some used pipes of sorts around my residence even though they weren't being used any longer and the laws kicked in my door, they would still take me to jail no matter if I told them "Oh don't worry, they aren't being used anymore. That's why I keep them in that glass display case." So why can a department hang on to stuff, like mentioned above, from cases but, as citizens we're going to be taken to jail?
