Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Senate Trying To Make It Illegal To Grow Your Own Food

Senate bill 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.

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.

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.

2. It would end US sovereignty over its own food supply by insisting on compliance with the WTO, thus threatening national security.

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.�

4. It imposes Codex Alimentarius on the US, a global system of control over food.

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.

6. It includes NAIS, an animal traceability program that threatens all small farmers and ranchers raising animals.

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.

9. It would allow the government to mandate antibiotics, hormones, slaughterhouse waste, pesticides and GMOs.

10. 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.

Keeping America's Families Safe: Reforming the Food Safety System

There is already a dangerous precedent being set in the courts whereby Monsanto, Cargill, and others have essentially secured the right to sue you for seed costs and licensing of "patented genetic sequencing" if their frankenDNA shows up in your crops.

Nice huh?

Are they really gonna go on "food raids"? Come on fellas at some point its gotta be too ridiculous even for them....

And their frankencrops produce pollen.

Which blows on the wind.

And knows no property lines.

I think it's pretty obvious some in the senate are flat out traitors. And I think too, if people see a monsanto "biologist" out in their field they'll SSS the SOB.

If they can keep you from growing your own food, there's nothing they can't control.
