Got Milk
Today
the government is confiscating your milk; tomorrow it will be your guns.

I must be
kidding, right?
When I was a
kid I worked on my Uncle’s farm during the summer months, the cats drank milk
right from the teat, and we had milk right from the domestic female Bovine, on the table at
suppertime. But that was back in the
olden days when we were living in a free country, and we actually had natural
rights.

crime; laws make criminals and control people”.

We are your government, and we are here to
confiscate your drugs, guns, and your milk.
At a time in
our history when the weed and tree huggers rule, and everything is green and el
natur’al this story is astonishing and contradictory.
Today the
founder of the Organic Pastures business in California is reporting that government
health officials have begun tracking down the names and addresses of
natural-foods customers and showing up at their homes, demanding to confiscate
any natural milk they might have and placing them under arrest.
The dispute
over raw milk has reached a fever pitch in recent weeks, with a judge ruling
that owners of cows have no right to the milk their herds produce, and protests
being staged by mad moms whose access to such foods is being threatened.
The report
said Los Angeles County health department officials have “unleashed
door-to-door raw milk confiscation teams to threaten and intimidate raw dairy
customers into surrendering raw milk products they legally purchased and own.
According to
Mark McAfee, “both LA County and San Diego county have attempted to acquire
customer names and addresses from Organic Pastures for the sole purpose of sending
‘food confiscation teams’ to customers’ homes to remove the raw milk from
customers’ refrigerators.”
NaturalNews quoted from one of McAfee’s
reports:
“I received a phone call yesterday morning
from a wonderful young gal, a 36-year-old mom out of LA County. She’s one of our UPS customers that we
deliver overnight raw milk to her house.
When the CDFA was in here the other day on our recall, they demanded to
have all our delivery addresses for overnight UPS delivery. We screwed up and [inadvertently] gave it to them;
they got it from one of our secretaries here.
The LA County health department started calling her, six or seven times,
demanding that she give up her raw milk from her own home to the health
department.
She refused, then they showed up at her house
and demanded that she give her raw milk to them. She was getting ready to call 911 for the
sheriff’s department and have them removed from her front doorstep, and she was
threatening to use her camera to take a picture of them and post it on FACEBOOK
for harassing her over her raw milk… The
investigators left after she told them she was not going to give them the raw
milk and to get the hell off her property.
This is what’s going on, it’s like food Nazis,
it’s incredible what these people are doing, trying to collect food from
people’s houses…
Then the San
Diego health department called me up and said oh we
want a list of all your buyer’s club members, and I said no… and they said we
want all their addresses and their names, because we want to go to their homes. I said it ain’t happening, we aren’t going to
give it to you.”
Mike Adams
reported on NaturalNews, “Remember: The raw milk from Organic
Pastures is legally sold, legally purchased, and greatly enjoyed by its
customers. There are virtually no
complaints about this product. Customers love it. Only the government wants to confiscate it
and destroy it.” He said, “What
this clearly demonstrates is yet another ratcheting up of the California police
state, where county authorities reach right into your refrigerator and
confiscate food that they claim might not be safe — food that you’ve legally
purchased and wish to consume knowing full well that it’s fresh and raw!”
It was just a
few days earlier that mothers in Minnesota
staged a protest at the trial of the manager of a farm buying club. The situation there had been monitored by the Farm Food Freedom Coalition. Watch the
videos
Today, 30
states allow the sale of raw milk and 20 forbid it, but the federal government
forbids it in interstate business.
In California , three people
are facing trial following an investigation of the Rawesome buying club. In that case, one of the defense lawyers was
stunned by the militancy of the prosecutor, declaring, “She doesn’t want raw
milk. …
She wants blood.”
In that recent
case in Wisconsin , a judge
ruled that Americans do not have a right to choose their food, not even when they own the cows and
the milk.
“The court denied
plaintiffs’ motion for summary judgment, which means the following:
“(1) no, plaintiffs do
not have a fundamental right to own and use a dairy cow or a diary herd;
“(2) no, plaintiffs do
not have a fundamental right to consume the milk from their own cow;
“(3) no, plaintiffs do
not have a fundamental right to board their cow at the farm of a farmer;
“(4) no, the Zinniker
plaintiffs’ private contract does not fall outside the scope of the state’s
police power;
“(5) no, plaintiffs do
not have a fundamental right to produce and consume the foods of their choice;
and
“(6) no, the DATCP did
not act in an ultra vires manner because it had jurisdiction to regulate the
Zinniker plaintiffs’ conduct.”
THE BOTTOM LINE: Easier than
listing all the rights we don’t have, would be to list the rights we do have… Aha, that would be NONE!
