It is absolutely astounding to me that such behaviours are both legal and tolerated in the so-called "land of the free". Astounding. You need to prove that your money is innocent? Pulling up bank statements on the jet bridge?
US police routinely extort as well - you get your property back (such as a building) if you pay us for it, or if you donate a truck to the sheriff, etc

Not that guy but you have quite a few posts (really like some btw). Do you happen to have some specific best ones handy to share? I'll check out more of your submissions later anyhow.
Bank statements do not work in these cases because the money may have been tainted by crime before it went into the bank. Remember, it is the civil asset being tried, not the holder. The holder has no legal standing in a civil asset forfeiture case.
