It has (at least in theory, it has been abused and that should be punished as well) nothing to do with revenue generation. It's a punishment. Same thing with speeding tickets. Instead of time in jail or community service, a small fine is paid for traffic violations. People see that as illegal, but yet they have no answer to how else you should punish someone for traffic violations. Point blank is anything you use to commit a crime is first used as evidence then given to the municipality that arrested you after a guilty verdict. If you are found innocent or are not charged, those items should be returned. That is how it is supposed to work.</blockquote>
