FOOD is going to be a CRIME!

Post by wordpur »

Just when I was not going to post, for awhile, like take a break, the "DARK force's" clowns, dog and pony show, tosses up another one to "clean up!

Here is a tidbit of the following post. . ..
Effects anyone growing food even if they are not selling it but consuming it.

Don't take my word for it....read up on it...research yourself and CALL your legislators to let them know you don't want this passing... There are just too many broad statements in this legislation. And I don't know about you but I happen to love and support organic foods and organic products!! Majority of our products and foods are from farms and companies that we support that are organically grown. The health of my family is VERY important to me!! I called and stated my thoughts about withdrawing HR875 and S425. I asked the representative what else can be done to get our voices heard and she said to spread the word and to have ALOT more people call in at 202-224-3121 to talk to someone to voice their opinions. She mentioned that not enough people have called in about this issue and will pass if people don't call in to get their voices heard. So please read the information below, please call in and wait to speak to someone. Your health and freedom of choice may depend on it!!! Thank you.

call the national switchboard @ (202) 224-3121. Let your Legislators know that you want HR875 and S425 withdrawn from the floors of congress.
Hey All,
This is crazy!!!!

Apparently there is a bill pending in the senate and congress in the next 10 days to OUTLAW ORGANIC FARMING and require that everyone use chemicals and pesticides in their personal gardens and farms. This is obviously unimaginable and will DESTROY the health and well welfare of THIS COUNTRY!
Please read below:

US House and Senate are about (in a week and a half) to vote on bill that will OUTLAW ORGANIC FARMING (bill HR 875). There is an enormous rush to get
this into law within the next 2 weeks before people realize what is happening.

Main backer and lobbyist is Monsanto – chemical and genetic engineering giant corporation (and Cargill, ADM, and about 35 other related agri-giants). This bill will require organic farms to use specific fertilizers and poisonous insect sprays dictated by the newly formed agency to "make sure there is no danger to the public food supply".
This will include backyard gardens that grow food only for a family and not for sales! Scroll down to RED section below for more details on the bill.
Scroll down to GREEN section for WHAT YOU CAN DO.
If this passes then NO more heirloom clean seeds
but only Monsanto genetically altered seeds that are now showing up with unexpected diseases in humans.

There is a video on the subject.

And another one:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eeWVkTU1s1E

The name on this outrageous food plan is:
Food Safety Modernization Act of 2009 (bill HR 875).
THIS IS REAL!
PASS THIS ALONG TO ALL CONCERNED ON YOUR
MAILING LISTS & CALL YOUR SENATE REPRESENTATIVES TODAY!


Get on that phone and burn up the wires. Get anyone else you can to do the same thing. The House and Senate WILL pass this if they are not massively threatened with loss of their position.... They only fear your voice and your vote.

** BEST THING TO DO is go to http://www.house.gov/writerep all you have to do is
put in your zip and it will give you your congressperson and how to get in touch with them. When you call their office someone will answer the phone,
just tell them (politely) that you are calling to express your views on HR 875. Tell them your views, they'll take your name and address and pass your comments along to the congressperson.

HR 875 The food police, criminalizing organic farming and the backyard gardener, and violation of the 10th amendment

Posted by LydiaScott on 03/06/09 03:36 AM

[Newer: HR 875 is being steamrolled thru the House and we have to pick up the pace!] [Older: Is this an opportunity to push the Indiana Honest Money act? ]

HR 875 http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query/F?c ... bb:e11439:

This bill is sitting in committee and I am not sure when it is going to hit the floor. One thing I do know is that very few of the Representatives have read it. As usual they will vote on this based on what someone else is saying. Urge your members to read the legislation and ask for opposition to this devastating legislation. Devastating for everyday folks but great for factory farming ops like Monsanto, ADM, Sodexo and Tyson to name a few.

I have no doubt that this legislation was heavily influenced by lobbyists from huge food producers. This legislation is so broad based that technically someone with a little backyard garden could get fined and have their property siezed. It will effect anyone who produces food even if they do not sell but only consume it. It will literally put all independent farmers and food producers out of business due to the huge amounts of money it will take to conform to factory farming methods. If people choose to farm without industry standards such as chemical pesticides and fertilizers they will be subject to a vareity of harassment from this completely new agency that has never before existed. That's right, a whole new government agency is being created just to police food, for our own protection of course.

DO NOT TAKE MY WORD FOR IT, READ THIS LEGISLATION FOR YOURSELF. The more people who read this legislation the more insight we are going to get and be able to share. Post your observations and insights below. Urge your members to read this legislation and to oppose the passage of this legislation.

Pay special attention to

* Section 3 which is the definitions portion of the bill-read in it's entirety.
* section 103, 206 and 207- read in it's entirety.

Red flags I found and I am sure there are more...........

* Legally binds state agriculture depts to enforcing federal guidelines effectively taking away the states power to do anything other than being food police for the federal dept.
* Effectively criminalizes organic farming but doesn't actually use the word organic.
* Effects anyone growing food even if they are not selling it but consuming it.
* Effects anyone producing meat of any kind including wild game.
* Legislation is so broad based that every aspect of growing or producing food can be made illegal. There are no specifics which is bizarre considering how long the legislation is.
* Section 103 is almost entirely about the administrative aspect of the legislation. It will allow the appointing of officials from the factory farming corporations and lobbyists and classify them as experts and allow them to determine and interpret the legislation. Who do you think they are going to side with?
* Section 206 defines what will be considered a food production facility and what will be enforced up all food production facilities. The wording is so broad based that a backyard gardener could be fined and more.
* Section 207 requires that the state's agriculture dept act as the food police and enforce the federal requirements. This takes away the states power and is in violation of the 10th amendment.
* There are many more but by the time I got this far in the legislation I was so alarmed that I wanted to bring someone's attention to it. (to the one person who reads my blog)

Didn't Stalin nationalize farming methods that enabled his administration to gain control over the food supply? Didn't Stalin use the food to control the people?

Last word...... Legislate religion and enforce gag orders on ministers on what can and can't be said in the pulpit, instituting regulations forcing people to rely soley on the government, control the money and the food. What is that called? It is on the tip of my tongue..........

I haven't read any of the Senate's version of the bill as I have been poring thru the House's version. Here is the link and I hope some of you can take a look and post your observations and insights below. One thing I am pretty sure of is that very few if any Senator's have actually read the legislation and when it comes up for a vote they will more than likely take someone else's word on how they should vote. The other thing I am pretty sure about is that the legislation was probably written by lobbyists and industry experts.

S 425 http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/bdquery/z?d111:s425:

Things you can do
1. Contact your members at 202-224-3121 and ask them to oppose HR 875 and S 425. While you are at it ask them if they personally have read the legislation and what their position is? If they have not read the legislation ask them to read it and politely let them know that just because other representitives are not reading the legislation and voting on it does not mean they can do the same.
2. Get in touch with local farmers and food producers by attending a local farmers market and asking them how business is.
3. Attend a local WAPF meeting, this is a good start to learning about what is going on in farming and local & state initiatives . The website is http://www.westonaprice.org/localchapters/index.html
4. Check out the Farmers Legal Defense Fund athttp://www.ftcldf.org/index.html
5. Find out who sits on your states agriculture and farming committee and contact them with your concerns.
6. Continue to contact your elected officials ( at least talk to the OFFICE personal,) and let them know your position on legislation and why.
7. Get active at the local and state levels, this is the quickest way to initiate change.

This is quite a scary bill. What's most frightening is how people assume that because they can't imagine it being misused now, that it never will be. We have so many laws in place that are extremely dangerous.

Jefferson said, "more people have killed themselves with a knife and fork, than all the wars put together" (that is as close as I can get that quote! opps)

BUT

Governments have KILLED MORE! 200 MILLION DEAD since 1800! And the government of heaven is going to out due that amount in ONE DAY, in the final battle!

But this "asinine" anti-food bill is the one they want to slave the "us of A!"

The “defacto” pretend-a-govment of "gang banksters" know the Stalin starvation man-nip-u-lations!

Scary is absolutely correct! NOT justbecause they WANT to completely control all food to control the slaves, but that mindset is the WORST form of demonic sub-make-believe-humans that has ever existed, from the "bad-old-boys" club.

AND idsff. . . . that is a GREAT PICTURE !!!!!!!!

D. Dees for president, since we don't have one NOW!

Remember the ONLY THING that you can still BUY "Made in Amerika," is a congress person! Anyone want to take up a donation? And I'm not joking!
