City Takes Familys Two Mini Dairy Goats; Pay Thousands in Fines or Same to Rewrite CodeBy Heather Callaghan The Agenda 21 lovin code enforcers are at it again, stoking situations and aggression where there were none and that is what is most disturbing to peace. A Visalia, California family was initially threatened $1,000 in fines per day for having two miniature dairy goats in their ample-spaced, fenced back yard. A mom decided to have them because she physically cannot breastfeed, and Visaliain the San Joaquin Valley prides itself on being green and tolerant of natural lifestyles. Apparently the city wants her to choose between GMO soy formula, paying fines in punishment OR paying over $3,500 for their having torewrite the code. In the meantime how does she get her Nigerian Dwarf dairy goats back? Sorry, city you want the code, you write it the way it was before. No one asked you to complicate it. Why do your residents bother paying you at all? The city does not want her to have them why is it petitioning her to do their job and foisting the cost on her when the residents already pay these costs? If the goats are such a burden, how does paying thousands undo that, and thereby allow it to magically be a right again? Think about it if fears of smelliness are a problem (completely unfounded) how does paying money fix that? It only grants a temporary privilege until another issue is unearthed or another resident is targeted. By dangling her property and food source with unreasonable demands, this is an obvious power play that has nothing to do with safety, peace or even social sameness. Its about crippling dependence and punishment. Owner Gingi Freeman told us: I am currently fighting my city to return my two miniature dairy goats that provide milk for my babies since I cannot produce breast milk my breast milk was removed as a teen from a birth deformity and I use the milk to make organic baby formula. The city initially threatened to fine me $1000 a day that I had the goats. Now they are willing to change the municipal code to allow my small goats that break no noise, health or trespass ordinances, but only if I foot the bill for rewriting the zoning code, which is $3598. Andrew Mastricola of Food Freedom USA has also written more about Gingis efforts to allow Food Producing Animals in residential areas.See and support Gingi at the city council meeting on June 1st. Additionally, Gingi has answered all arguments that people frequently use to rationalize bad behavior from overreaching local government agents (because armchair critics dont want to make efforts to stop being drowned in codes). These bureaucratic actions are unreasonable, forceful and senseless. Are you Pro-Goat and wish to follow this story?

Do they believe in protecting their rights including property rights from theft and fraud? People like this and others (who reside in close proximity) should protect their rights and their neighbor rightsat all costs. It only takes a few run-ins before the word gets out and the masses get upset with outright theft, and the governments ability to kill you for resisting against a crime against you and your property. so back to my first question. anyone have any answer or is america the land of gun collectors? Perhaps they are trying to raise two young children, and dont cotton to the idea of CPS giving them to pedophile rings? I mean, its just a wild guess. Dont expect others to have the same views as you (as they are not methods, and you probably dont have the courage of your own stated convictions), when you obviously havent acted upon your own advice. A little trigger happy with the censorship, no? you guys censored the word s3x spelled correctly? Seriously? A new audit of the California foster care system has revealed that over 1,000 foster home addresses match those of registered s3x offenders, according to the Los Angeles Times. It seems that child welfare official failed to compare the addresses even after they were told to do so in 2008. According to the Sacramento Bee, about 600 of the highlighted offenders were considered high risk. The matching addresses involved both foster care facilities and homes, according to the Sacramento Bee. from Huffington Post Its a land of gun collectors. While there are homeowners who have a single gun for home defense, there are others who have 5 or more; mostly collectibles. The survuvalists will have an AR-15 or two, perhaps an AK-47 and several handguns like a 44 madnum, a 45 and a smaller semi automatic pistol. But most humans are not the psychopaths that are in government, and while there are government abuses all over, the threat to the average citizen is pretty much non existent. Most of the suburbs are practically crime free. The cops know enough to not hassle the locals in the suburbs. And responding with an armed defense of your rights will get you branded by the media as a radical extremist. And the government response will be a quick siege, where they end it violently, or get a plea agreement to lesser charges. The US is about to go bankrupt very soon. Then things will get interesting. lol Wait until they take what is yours possibly including your children. So how do you deal with a psychopath? I loved to hear your rational approach. Face it.youre afraid of the State and its power. If a psycho entered your house and was going to take your daughter and your car, and you had a gun accessible.what would you do? Oh yeah.wait for the US to go bankrupt. They are going broke. and they donthave the resources to control the populace, so they get the populace to do it through dear programming, as you so blantantly display. Im not afraid of the state. the state is failing. And then you resort to straw amn taxtics. What does a psycho entering my house have to do with the government? And I dont have a daughter. Go back to licking boots. You dont seem to be capable of thinking for yourself. the government does not go broke or bankrupt like an individual. It just dissolves and reforms. Just like your pension plan you are banking onlol And the US is not going bankrupt soon. What other country or currency has more support than the USD?? If you believe that, then go live there and exchange your currency. Well be the last to fall.so to speak. So stop spreading your BS. You are one of those that believe in being passive or waiting for god to save us as the answer. You are a simpleton who believes in fairy tales. Yes, the government does go broke, just like any other corporation. Youre about to see it in Greece next, then the rest of the governments will start to go broke, as well. They dont just dissolve and reform like you imagine. And whats with LOL Am I talking to a twelve year old? And yes, the US will soon go bankrupt. As for which country has more support, you have obviously not been paying attention. Obama replaced the CEO of GM, to install one who invested the bailout money in China. China has been buying tons of gold. As for currency, the dollar is worthless, propped up only by the rigged stock market through high speed trading and the derivatives market. You obviously know nothing about international banking or finance. Put the glass pipe down and wake up. Two thirds of the US GDP is consumer spending. Explain to me how long you think that can last. Then you might be able to tell me what BS is. And quit with the straw man and ad hominem arguments. Get some formal logic education if you want to argue with an adult. You are the idiot who believes in fairy tales. You believe in politicians, who are the worst liars on the planet. You might as well believe in Santa Claus. I bet you think the great depression was all a hoax, or that it could never happen again. It will be look like a minor downturn compared to wat is about to happen. I dont know how you could possibly hallucinate my views into fairy tales, you imbecile. Then again, you probably only read the comics. you idiot. ALL governments have been broke since their inception and will always be broke. How long has the US and other governments continued to operate and a functioning entity even thought they are broke or indebted? When you can print money, you can sustain yourself for a long time. The USD is the world reserve currency and will remain so until the masters are ready for a change. More than 50% of americans are indebted and are essentially bankrupt. But guess what clueless, thing continue on. People dont file bankruptcy and continue their indebtedness for years and years. You have been sold on the black and white theory of the monetary system. They are leading us where they want to be. At some point in time the gov will resigned from most of its entitlement obligations.thats what most of orchestrated financial calamity has been about for the past 14 years. In as little as 10 to 15 years, they will accomplish their goals of eliminating all gov entitlement spending and many of the unsustainable elderly population will be dead or facing death. Only the rich and productive will survive. This is just a culling of the herd and I must say its overdue. Im tired of tax moneys being used to replace a hip for a 85 yo patient or whatever they want to keep them eating and crapping. Many of these people have brought these problems on through their own choices. Guess what.the gov is merely making changes so that in the very near future, you and only you, will be responsible for yourself. So if you want or need a heart transplant, I hope you have the bucks and the wherewithal to get it. Otherwise, you are sh#t out of luck, and its time to clock out. dont think for a moment that the elitist moneychangers are not in control. THey know exactly what they are doing Sure they make mistakes, but they have ALWAYS achieved their long term goals. The monetary policy you speak of is the drivel they have driven into your head. THere is only one policy, and its theirs and youll never be privy to it. So many thingsI cant make cookies or cakes and sell them out front because Im not licensed with an FDA approved kitchen. I cant have a garage sale unless I register with the town and pay for a permit. They are blocking us at every turn. any food that used milk improves 100% if untreated. When it comes to government in the U.S., when it comes to food, medicine, the very air we breath, if it is good for you, the government will try to outlaw it. If it will give you cancer, diabetes, brain damage, or early death, the government will try to make it mandatory. Explain that one to me without admitting that the minions in D.C. are evil. GMO soil milk is toxic. It has so much estrogen youre literally feeding your baby liquid birth control bills. What a bunch of NAZIS Meanwhile, the city probably accepts neer-do-well urbanites and drug dealers keeping vicious pit bulls (made vicious by the urbanites) or other dogs on their property.
