Raw Milk Lineup

Commentary by Mike Adams, the Health Ranger, 8/3/2011

One of the most astounding elements of yesterday's SWAT-style armed raid on Rawesome Foods in Venice, California is the simple fact that both California and the U.S. government are completely and utterly bankrupt. They're running on financial fumes, and at the federal level, a total debt default was just narrowly avoided (and it will come back again in a few months). But even though these government entities are fiscally and morally bankrupt, when it comes to making decisions about how to spend the money they're confiscated from taxpayers, they prioritize things like terrorizing health food buyer's clubs such as Rawesome Foods. (http://www.naturalnews.com/033220_R...)

On the scale of harm to the public, the actions of the FDA and the pharmaceutical industry are legendary. Over 100,000 Americans are killed each year by FDA-approved drugs, and yet there's absolutely no action whatsoever being taken to arrest the CEOs of the drug companies who knowingly sell dangerous drugs that kill people.

Where are the arrests of the CDC officials who pushed useless flu vaccines, knowing that they, too, would cause neurological destruction and even death in some children?

Where are the arrests of the food company executives who knowingly lace their products with MSG, aspartame, sodium nitrite, hydrogenated oils and other poisons that promote degenerative disease?

How about the crackdowns on the evil GMO corporations that have unleashed genetic pollution across our planet in their greedy quest for profit at the expense of life on Earth?

No, the great police state government that now runs America doesn't bother the real criminals who get away with murder every single day by poisoning the food, the medicine and the crops. They all have legal immunity because the system won't bother dealing with their large-scale crimes. Instead, the power of the corrupt police state is exercised against small, local farms and food businesses which remain the only option through which everyday people can find real food that isn't artificially modified or contaminated with chemical additives.

What we witnessed at Rawesome Foods yesterday was an act of government-sponsored terrorism leveled against a health food buyer's club with the sole intent of destroying food. It's as if we're all watching an Orwellian BOOK BURNING!

Except they weren't burning books; they were pouring raw milk down the drain and destroying up to $50,000 worth of wholesome, organic, farm-fresh food. Keep in mind this is happening at a time when starvation is on the rise in America -- and our own government is running around DESTROYING FOOD!

Government thugs are the real terrorists today

These people are terrorists, folks. The California Dept. of Agriculture, the LA County Sheriff's office, the FDA, the CDC... these people are outright terrorists who represent a clear and present a href=http://www.naturalnews.com/danger.html">danger to the lives and safety of the American people. They should be arrested at gunpoint by the citizens and charged with the crimes they have committed: Theft, kidnapping, destruction of property, conspiracy to commit felony crimes, trespassing and more (see below).

Even Bin Laden did not terrorize everyday people the way that these government criminals have done. The California government and U.S. feds have outdone Osama Bin Laden! They've out-terrorized the terrorists! They have targeted innocent citizens at gunpoint and thrown them in jail, destroyed their businesses, confiscated their computers and charged them with felony crimes.

This is government-inspired insanity, folks. And just so you know, this is also the upshot of the new Food Safety Modernization Act which will only see even MORE armed raids on health food stores and farms. So all those people who ignorantly supported the Food Safety Bill have ultimately supported acts of terrorism against the American people. (Told ya so! This is what happens when you give MORE power to a corrupt government that respects no law and no rights...)

Denying access to livesaving foods

Even more, those members of the Rawesome Foods buying club who depend on the facility for their farm-fresh food products are now left without that option. The food they had once planned to buy has now been poured down the drain by California state authorities and federal thugs working for the FDA and CDC (both of which are criminal organizations which respect no law and have long abandoned science).

Remember: They are destroying this raw milk because they don't want you to be able to drink it! Meanwhile, all the things that admittedly cause disease and kill you -- MSG, aspartame, chemotherapy, contaminated flu vaccines, etc. -- are all perfectly legal to keep on consuming.

Big Government, you see, isn't really interested in protecting your health. But it's extremely interested in protecting Big Business and reminding the commoners that they are total slaves and must do what they're told or be arrested at gunpoint.

America devolves into lawless anarchy, courtesy of the government itself

With these raids, we are witnessing the collapse of the rule of law in America and the rise of Big Government tyranny against innocent citizens and honest small businesses. The anarchy being unleashed today originates with the government itself which respects no law. Obama launches wars in Libya in total violation of the law; the ATF runs guns into Mexico in complete violation of the law (http://www.naturalnews.com/032934_A...); the FDA routinely violates law by knowingly allowing deadly pharmaceuticals to remain on the market; the DEA routinely conducts illegal raids against legal medical marijuana clinics... need I go on?

We are living under lawless government tyranny where state and federal thugs commit any crimes they wish -- right out in the open! -- and they don't even care when they're caught because they know the zombie-brained public is too droned out on daytime television and fluoridated water to do anything about it.

Resist or lose your freedom forever

If we do not take immediate action to resist this, we will all become slaves of the state, and we will be forced to eat dead foods, take CDC-recommended vaccine shots and survive on FDA-enforced pharmaceutical medications. That's the government plan for you, and that's why they are engaged in a full-on assault against home gardening, organic farms, raw milk producers and food freedom organizations.

These are acts of war being waged against farmers and small business owners. What these government thugs are doing to Rawesome Foods is exactly what the occupying British soldiers did to the original colonists who suffered under decades of government oppression before finally revolting and fighting for their freedom.

Out-of-control oppressive governments, of course, do everything they can to destroy freedom, oppress free thinking and enslave the people. And they take special measures to silence those who challenge their false authority.

No doubt they are trying to plot some way to raid NaturalNews as well, given that we are one of the few honest news organizations left that's actually covering these important stories about runaway government tyranny against the People. Don't be surprised if government thugs attempt to seize our servers and concoct some fictional charges against me personally in their desire to silence what is now becoming one of the strongest voices of commonsense rebellion across the internet: NaturalNews.com.

We serve the interests of the People, and we respect law, liberty and the natural law rights to individually choose our own food, our own medicine and the pursuit of happiness. That commitment to principle, it seems, makes us an enemy of the corrupt thug-infested government which has zero tolerance for free speech or informed members of the public who can still manage to think for themselves.

I'm in good company, of course. If I wind up in front of a firing squad with Paul Craig Roberts on one side and Ron Paul on the other, I'll know we ultimately won. Because freedom is an infectious idea, and once the flame of freedom has been ignited in new minds, it cannot be so easily extinguished with mere bullets -- no matter who they're aimed at.

I don't expect the USA to last very much longer, folks. The acceleration of the economic implosion combined with the rapid erosion of the rule of law is thrusting us into an irreversible path toward total collapse. No matter what happens, I will hold fast to the principles of freedom, liberty and limited government upon which our nation was founded. I can only pray that enough of us will survive the coming collapse long enough to help erect a new Republic that restores the freedoms and liberties which once made this nation the greatest in the world.

And for God's sake, let us all remember to write in sections about food freedom and freedom for natural medicine in whatever future Bill of Rights we may collectively create (which, hopefully, will be based on the original Bill of Rights, but simply expanded to protect even MORE rights of the People).

We who respect law are the real patriots. Those in Washington who brazenly ignore the law are the real terrorists. As things move forward in this crazy world, keep that in mind.

S 510 is hissing in the grass

By Steve Green, April 24, 2010

[http://foodfreedom.wordpress.com/2010/04/24/s-510-is-hissing-in-the-grass/#more-1828]

S 510, the Food Safety Modernization Act of 2010, may be the most dangerous bill in the history of the US. It is to our food what the bailout was to our economy, only we can live without money.

“If accepted [S 510] would preclude the public’s right to grow, own, trade, transport, share, feed and eat each and every food that nature makes. It will become the most offensive authority against the cultivation, trade and consumption of food and agricultural products of one’s choice. It will be unconstitutional and contrary to natural law or, if you like, the will of God.” ~Dr. Shiv Chopra, Canada Health whistleblower

It is similar to what India faced with imposition of the salt tax during British rule, only S 510 extends control over all food in the US, violating the fundamental human right to food.

Monsanto says it has no interest in the bill and would not benefit from it, but Monsanto’s Michael Taylor who gave us rBGH and unregulated genetically modified (GM) organisms, appears to have designed it and is waiting as an appointed Food Czar to the FDA (a position unapproved by Congress) to administer the agency it would create — without judicial review — if it passes. S 510 would give Monsanto unlimited power over all US seed, food supplements, food and farming.

History

In the 1990s, Bill Clinton introduced HACCP (Hazardous Analysis Critical Control Points) purportedly to deal with contamination in the meat industry. Clinton’s HACCP delighted the offending corporate (World Trade Organization “WTO”) meat packers since it allowed them to inspect themselves, eliminated thousands of local food processors (with no history of contamination), and centralized meat into their control. Monsanto promoted HACCP.

In 2008, Hillary Clinton, urged a powerful centralized food safety agency as part of her campaign for president. Her advisor was Mark Penn, CEO of Burson Marsteller*, a giant PR firm representing Monsanto. Clinton lost, but Clinton friends such as Rosa DeLauro, whose husband’s firm lists Monsanto as a progressive client and globalization as an area of expertise, introduced early versions of S 510.

S 510 fails on moral, social, economic, political, constitutional, and human survival grounds.

1. It puts all US food and all US farms under Homeland Security and the Department of Defense, in the event of contamination or an ill-defined emergency. It resembles the Kissinger Plan.

2. It would end US sovereignty over its own food supply by insisting on compliance with the WTO, thus threatening national security. It would end the Uruguay Round Agreement Act of 1994, which put US sovereignty and US law under perfect protection. Instead, S 510 says:

COMPLIANCE WITH INTERNATIONAL AGREEMENTS.

Nothing in this Act (or an amendment made by this Act) shall be construed in a manner inconsistent with the agreement establishing the World Trade Organization or any other treaty or international agreement to which the United States is a party.

3. It would allow the government, under Maritime Law, to define the introduction of any food into commerce (even direct sales between individuals) as smuggling into “the United States.” Since under that law, the US is a corporate entity and not a location, “entry of food into the US” covers food produced anywhere within the land mass of this country and “entering into” it by virtue of being produced.

4. It imposes Codex Alimentarius on the US, a global system of control over food. It allows the United Nations (UN), World Health Organization (WHO), UN Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), and the WTO to take control of every food on earth and remove access to natural food supplements. Its bizarre history and its expected impact in limiting access to adequate nutrition (while mandating GM food, GM animals, pesticides, hormones, irradiation of food, etc.) threatens all safe and organic food and health itself, since the world knows now it needs vitamins to survive, not just to treat illnesses.

5. It would remove the right to clean, store and thus own seed in the US, putting control of seeds in the hands of Monsanto and other multinationals, threatening US security. See Seeds – How to criminalize them, for more details.

6. It includes NAIS, an animal traceability program that threatens all small farmers and ranchers raising animals. The UN is participating through the WHO, FAO, WTO, and World Organisation for Animal Health (OIE) in allowing mass slaughter of even heritage breeds of animals and without proof of disease. Biodiversity in farm animals is being wiped out to substitute genetically engineered animals on which corporations hold patents. Animal diseases can be falsely declared. S 510 includes the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), despite its corrupt involvement in the H1N1 scandal, which is now said to have been concocted by the corporations.

7. It extends a failed and destructive HACCP to all food, thus threatening to do to all local food production and farming what HACCP did to meat production – put it in corporate hands and worsen food safety.

8. It deconstructs what is left of the American economy. It takes agriculture and food, which are the cornerstone of all economies, out of the hands of the citizenry, and puts them under the total control of multinational corporations influencing the UN, WHO, FAO and WTO, with HHS, and CDC, acting as agents, with Homeland Security as the enforcer. The chance to rebuild the economy based on farming, ranching, gardens, food production, natural health, and all the jobs, tools and connected occupations would be eliminated.

9. It would allow the government to mandate antibiotics, hormones, slaughterhouse waste, pesticides and GMOs. This would industrialize every farm in the US, eliminate local organic farming, greatly increase global warming from increased use of oil-based products and long-distance delivery of foods, and make food even more unsafe. The five items listed — the Five Pillars of Food Safety — are precisely the items in the food supply which are the primary source of its danger.

10. It uses food crimes as the entry into police state power and control. The bill postpones defining all the regulations to be imposed; postpones defining crimes to be punished, postpones defining penalties to be applied. It removes fundamental constitutional protections from all citizens in the country, making them subject to a corporate tribunal with unlimited power and penalties, and without judicial review. It is (similar to C-6 in Canada) the end of Rule of Law in the US.
