Hey, hey FDA, what are you gonna say? Sheriff Brad Rogers creates a problem for the food police…

In about twenty four hours, the second Raw Milk Freedom Riders event will ride from Wisconsin to Chicago.

All are invited to attend and spread the word to friends and family in the region.

The first event resulted in an FDA announcement stating that they had no current intention of pursuing criminal charges against individuals who cross state lines to secure raw milk, that Russia Roulette like substance that despite the overwhelming danger and stupidity of people choosing to consume it has not killed a single person in the past thirteen years… unlike spinach, turkey, cantaloupes, ground beef, bean sprouts, and a few dozen other foods, such as pasteurized milk.

Now all eyes are on the FDA and how it will respond to a second challenge where individual consumers are using agents to cross state lines on their behalf to secure real milk for them and their families.

Stay tuned for updates as they become available.

LOCAL SHERIFF STANDS TALL AGAINST TYRANNY

The second important piece of news breaking today is about David Hochstetler and Richard Hebron, two farmers subpoenaed by the US Department of Justice at the behest of the FDA.

David has found help, and protection, in an unexpected place… local Sheriff Brad Rogers, who stepped in to the situation and notified the DOJ that if they wanted to have any dealings with those under his protection and jurisdiction, they would have to go through him.

He also warned the DOJ that if they continued to visit David’s farm/property without a proper warrant, he or his officers would arrest them for trespassing.

Even in the face of severe coercive pressure (the DOJ threatened Sheriff Rogers with a FELONY ARREST for doing his job and fulfilling his oath of office), Sheriff Rogers stood tall and did not back down.

My words to Rogers? “Thank you” and “You da man!”

David Hochstetler has now received a letter stating that he has been released from the subpoena until further notice and that the hearing is cancelled.

The matter of Richard Hebron is still in administrative matters with the Farm to Consumer Legal Defense Fund representing Hebron.

First, before I continue, I encourage everyone to drop an email or call Sheriff Rogers office and say, “Thank you!” Here is the office’s contact information.

Second, I want everyone to understand how and why Roger’s did what he did and how other sheriffs can be trained, encouraged, and emboldened to do likewise.

Rogers is a member of the County Sheriff Project, an organization founded by Richard Mack and friends, dedicated to training and supporting sheriffs to enable them to fulfill their constitutional oath.

So far, the group is a smash success, protecting people from government run amok and intrusions on private property and local communities in California, Oregon, Arizona, and now, Indiana, and probably elsewhere that we just haven’t heard about yet.

Average citizens may finally find they are not alone in standing up to the constant stream of stupidity being sloshed on them from the federal level and now have a person of authority and influence to rally around and behind.

Mack deserves our thanks and support. Mack is holding an event in Las Vegas and encouraging people to “Sponsor a Sheriff” so that they can reach as many local sheriffs as possible.

Please consider sponsoring your local sheriff or forming a group in your area to reach out to, educate, and perhaps sponsor as many local sheriffs as possible.

I encourage you to do everything you can to get your local sheriff to the convention and get good resources into your sheriff’s hands to protect your family, farmers, and freedoms, such as Sheriff Mack’s book.

And if you are under a sheriff who has little to no interest in fulfilling his constitutional duties and oath of office, don’t despair.

Look at the calendar and towards the next election and help get ‘em booted, replacing them with someone who will do their job and fulfull their oath.

We are ever only one election away from more tyranny or more liberty.

You will help determine which prevails.
