Do those goalposts ever get heavy?
Uh . . . I don't get it.

No, in this case it's worse.
It's government agents raiding people because of the food products they wish to eat or drink.
First they came for the........
So having agents warning people about supposedly unsafe products with phone calls and maybe door to door visits is WORSE than having swat teams kill people for not complying with involuntary chipping? You might want to think about that a bit.
How is forced confiscation of raw milk a warning about an unsafe product?
Been through a stripscan lately comrade, da!Because otherwise you are not sifficiently panic-stricken
I've been wondering since I read this article (earlier today) if the people of California would just petition their State's government with a petition that states "It shall be deemed unlawful for the Federal government or any of their officers to operate within the borders of California". The state need to assert their authority. Further, if this is possible, a penalty to the tune of 5000$ for the first offense AND jail time! Sock it to 'em, America!! Perhaps this will make them re-considering their door-to-door plan.
By the way, I am in no way advocating what the government is doing here. I oppose it. I am simply providing a counterpoint to the tendency of certain people to springboard from a report of government yet again doing something improper to global consiparcy to kill us all. Questioning the global conspiracy speculation is not the same as approving the facts of runaway government.
The authors of the Declaration of Independence said:Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.
As I read the article, no actual confiscation has taken place.
But assuming it does, how is that worse than being killed by a swat team?
All those guys had to do was tell local law enforcement that they felt threatened when she ordered them to get the hell off her property, and the SWAT team would have been dispatched. If she had locked the door and and done nothing else but sit in a chair waiting for them to bust the door down, there's a significant chance she would have ended up with a bullet in her head. It happens almost every day here.
And the media, and the internet comments, and your neighbors would all tell you it was her fault, for not letting them keep her safe.
This is why Caly is broke , funding shit like this with tax dollars while 16 billion in the hole ....
