  • It's getting time that every family own their own nuclear warheads. Guns and AKs aren't enough. To keep government in check, the citizen needs equal fire power.

    Short of that, these families need installed security cameras to document everything to an off site server.

    Next best thing to nukes is having multiple defense systems... cyanide gas, acid spray, infrasonic weapons, microwave weapons, multiple servo operated bullet firing devices. When you're dealing with the feds, you kill hundreds.

  • How are things today? Did you ever get compensated for the year's worth of food they destroyed?  How would you respond today if the same thing happened? How do you protect yourself?

  • So....why did the effing government bust your door in and take your food? Corporate America that pissy thst you and your friends are noit buying fo them or what? POLICE STATE!

  • Anybody know what happened with this family??

  • Bury the patriot act. Over time more freedoms and rights will be taken away from us. Bury it now! Call your legislators,like that will make a difference,and tell them to repeal this act. We are supposedly the ones that they work for.

  • what i would like to know is ....who brought a complaint against these people? it seems to be vague as to the details and the other side isn't talking. did the dept.of agriculture have just cause? is there a search warrant pertaining to the confiscation of said items? have any formal charges been imposed on the Stowers? have they been given a court date? were they advised of their rights? do they have a copy of the warrant? is there a follow up to this story in the media?

  • Complain to your representatives, not on the internet. Duh! Only your congress, reps, senators can do something about an out of control FDA, and police state!

  • GOOD GRIEF WHAT THE HECK .....THE POOR ANIMALS TOO THEY WOULD'VE

    BEEN TERRIFIED. WHAT A POLICE STATE. IF IT IS TRUE ABOUT THE CO-OP

    THATS SCARY STUFF.

  • Oh my God, how awful. Do you live in COMMUNIST RED CHINA OR RED RUSSIA?

  • Don't worry the wicked soon will be swept from the earth!

  • héh_Ï_fËél_só_lonEly_tØdAÿ

  • Why did they do that? I dont get it??? I hate this government. It is well on the way to ruining all of our lives!!!

  • Lock and Load!!!!!!!

  • The elite are being bold and arrogant. They have stated that they intend on starving over 6 billion people to cut down population. In order to do that they must forcefully invade people's homes with their thug goons so they can illegally steal all the food innocent familes have in case cost of food goes sky high in the grocery stores. This is the reason why they made it illegal to buy gas and store it up in large amounts. So greedy corperate companies can charge so many of us outragious prices.

  • THIS FUCKING ENRAGES ME. WE NEED TO DO WHAT EGYPT DID.

  • un real..... im so sorry you had to go thru that.. this is just plain frightning

  • Come join the BPA"UX good poeple, for your generous $50 a month donation we will provide you with security!

  • The GOVERNMENT are the frigging terrorists! Police pigs raiding innocent people for no reason at all. They run a business for the benefit of the people! Wake up sheeple, this is your future too. Fight the brain dead bastards or it will get worse by the minute!

  • THEIR SON IN LAW IS IN IRAQ FIGHTING FOR HIS COUNTRY WHILE THE SAME GOVERNMENT IS TAKING WHAT HIS FAMILY HAS EARNED. WHAT A FUCKIN IDIOT!

  • @D1E5ECT yes our government appreciates the sacrifices we make for our country....NOT! They could not care less. We are simply chattel or slaves.

  • sick fucking pigs taking away food from people.

  • Tyrants deserve a patriots wrath!!!

  • The Government can suck it!

  • Every time I do a site search on the Buckeyeinstitute website it takes me back to the main page so I was unable to find any update. I'm curious how the Stowers are doing and what ever became of their situation.

  • this is just so wrong to do such a thing to a family, when they actually don't seem to have a reason for it! they're going after the innocent and ignoring criminal activities...

  • Seriously?

  • Do you see now why peaceful methods do no work?

    You cannot oppose violence with peace, all it does is get you hurt worse than if you physically resist.

  • @CatsLairArchives Read up on Mahatma Gandhi, or Martin Luther King dude..

  • @Al5xmo Look up "RNC 2004" and "RNC 2008" here on youtube.

  • Since when is stocking up on food illegal? Can I get some feed back on this?

  • I don't understand this. What was the reason that they raided your home? I can't wrap my head around this.

  • @lutochin They were providing food (home-grown) to others without oversight by the local health department. When you charge money it becomes a business that requires health regulation.

  • @lutochin I know your post about the raid on the Ohio family is 3 months old, but I did not see any reply to you in the comments. They were raided because they were selling there co-oped and home grown foods to the local community. This techencly consitutes a business, and they were not being regulated by the local health department or FDA. I personly beleive such laws are not correct, but they techincly did break that regulation.

  • his family was competing in the market place and the gov didn't like free trade only if it's china or if they sold GMO

  • terrible.

  • You must search free man on the land, or sovereignty. Black's law dictionary. Watch the videos Black's law.....there are 9 parts.

    Knowledge is power.

    Know who you are.

  • wow. Do you think you broke the law?

  • R E S P E C T

  • I'd just hunt them down and kill them ( some of the slowly) but, hey, maybe I'm just an extremist.

  • It's time we all thumb our nose at the the govt., big business and all the red tape. CANCEL TV. CANCEL ALL CREDIT CARDS. PAY ONLY CASH. STOP BUYING ALL FOREIGN GOODS. LET THE ECONOMY CRASH. PLANT A HUGE GARDEN, CAN FOOD. BUY GUNS AND AMMO. LIVE PEACEFULLY. KEEP BUYING AMMO. HIDE YOUR SHIT. YOUR GOVT. IS NOW PURE EVIL. STAY OFF THEIR RADAR. FUCKING NAZIS GOVT. BUY SILVER. NO DEBT, SELF SUFFICIENT. LIVE SIMPLY, LIVE FREE. THE CAPS ARE TO WAKE PEOPLE UP...SHOUT IT OUT..FREEDOM!!!!!!

  • I live in Lagrange Ohio.. what the hell dose sheirf or cops..Some one wanted to get the hands on that co op food.. this is not good.. The sheirf and who every came your place.. Heath deptment they CAn suck a pile of cow dong.. the health deptment need stay in elyria..say out of Lagrange...

  • This is another sound byte to practice terrorist tactics in isolated instances, where the government is hoping the population will just blow it off as whiney victims of persecution. These types of covert operations should be red flags to every human being who is concerned about individual rights. The Patriot Act is just a polite term for Police State. It is time to seriously fly below the radar, make serious plans to go underground and if you don't know how to network you need to learn.

  • @shoshanamarie THANK YOU.everybody who is watching this video needs to listen to "shoshanamarie"

  • Claims by two LaGrange store owners against health officials investigating their retail food establishment have been dropped in federal court at their request. The dropped claims were for unlawful search and seizure, violation of equal protection and due process, according to the court document.

  • I can't judge them for what they did but if it happened as stated then heck yes that was way over the line and was over kill. Im just glad no sneezed with all those guns they'd probably blown someones head off and my gosh, all those dangerous kids and one man & wife. How did the law enforcement ever make outta that place alive?

  • I know our government is full of fools, socialist, thieves and possibly one or two antichrists lol May not be fully joking on the last one) but if there was meat involved in this ordeal then they had to investigate to protect the public from Mad Cow Disease and God only knows what else.

  • Not to be taken seriously. Do NOT act upon this fictional scenario:

    Forget Tar and Feathers, desperate times call for desperate measures.

    STORM the local governments with pitch forks and torches. Burn the traitorous SOB's out, skewer them, and then cook their limp bodies over the coals of their burned out homes. Then feed their charred flesh to the hogs, and pulverize their brittle bones and use it as fertilizer in the fields!

    Thats what I call a good example of "government help". Ha Ha

  • oooh....k

  • Monsanto is behind this.

  • This is bullshit and it's happening more and more. Almost time to make a STAND against Tyranny. The time will come and we will have to make a stand, or die as subjects again....

  • I suspect that the crux of FDA's complaint is in their final food comment. If they were raising and distributing beef and chicken through the co-op without proper permits and food certifications, they were violating the law.

    That being said, the way the warrants were served is unconsionable. There WILL be a revolution in this country, possibly within our lifetimes. Think carefully about which side you want to be on, and get your guns while they are still legal!

  • This is state and local government gone insane.

  • What's the status of the lawsuit?

  • Yes I would like to know also! What happened to this family is a crime of the highest sort. I pray their outcome was victory and MASSIVE penalty and fine for the government agency that abused them.

  • Yeah....There is a lot to growing! If your growing a crop than you understand the seasons! Sometimes things grow and sometimes they do not. The worst thing to do is to forget why you planted the crop in the first place!! Keep your HOPE! DON"T FORGET THE POOR AND THE MEEK! They are crying...They are the ones that have lost faith! CHILDREN ARE DYING!  Mothers and Fathers are giving up! Please do not quit! The world needs people like you! Love is beautiful and peace is awesome! :)

  • most of you don't know your rights because you don't know who you are in court, or what the court itself is. you are dealing w/ a private corporation that calls itself the "UNITED STATES OF AMERICA." go to teamlaw (dot) org for details.

  • People simply won't admit to themselves that we live in a police state. I never knew this until recently, but the Chinese riot all the time and they do so with relative impunity. We get arrested when we try to even just protest (not to mention tazed).

    The freedom we once had is gone. They took it from us a little bit at a time and we didn't pay attention.

    There WILL be strict gun control laws by the end of the Obama administration.

  • did this incident make any televised news locally or nationally? What were the reasons for the alleged raid?

  • Why did they say this raid took place in the first place? Was it a licensing issue? If so why the SWAT and guns???

  • they've been doin this kind of crap for yrs, it's slow control, little by little til we are all obedient little robots in a new world order! 9/11 is part of it , the mess at the airports, all to instill fear in americans to gain control and give us only the news they want us to hear. WAKE UP PEOPLE!

  • I feel so bad for these people! This shows that the USDA, law enforcement and the govt are nothing more than a bunch of THUGS! Welcome to the New World Order, where you are forced to eat toxic food loaded with preservatives that kill you eventually! Get a copy of the book 1984 and read it.!

    I hope they get millions of bucks from this lawsuit. Josef Stalin would be PROUD OF THE STATE OF OHIO for this one. I hope that everyone who did this is FIRED and imprisoned!!!!!

  • a license: ...you pay money, get a certificate and it's legal; you don't pay money, you don't get a certificate and it's illegal (& you get hit by a SWAT team).

    The criminals are the state sanctioned ones, low-level psychopaths who work for the off-shore banks.

  • this is sickening..makes me boil with rage

  • Laws, laws, laws are turning normal people into criminals. These people are NOT criminals. The way to deal with people is you give them a notice then they should have some time period to comply NOT turn it into Ruby Ridge or David Koresh...

  • ahhhh a few minutes researching this, and i get it now. They didnt have a license to sell the food....Ahhhh kk I get it now..... Well then.... They deserve what they get for not following the law. Now I know why it wasnt stated in the video.

  • Regardless of "legality", it is still an utter abuse of power and constitutional rights. They had no right to raid their home. This is state terrorism inflicted on people who were not trying to harm anyone.

    "Well then.... They deserve what they get for not following the law."

    -- Basically you are saying that these people are criminal scum-bags and they get what they deserve?????

  • Im not judging their character nor would I. I felt bad for them when I watched the video. Then I read the charges filed against them. They didnt have a license as required by law to be selling it. I need a license to keep my business running. So why dont they? Thats what I meant by they get what they deserve. You break the law you have to pay the price. I have to follow the law so do they.

  • So you think that a third degree misdemeanor warrants a guns-drawn, multi-hour raid of a house?

    Espcially when the Stowers had written a letter to the Lorain County health department saying they didn't think the law applied to their situation -- reasonably enough given the complexity of the law and the membership-only character of their co-op? So it's ok with you that the County decided to reply to the Stowers' letter with a Fugitive Apprehension Tea-led take over of their house?

  • Did they have a Warrant?

    Yes! Obviously a judge thought it was enough to issue a warrant. Stop whining about things you have no power to fix, and live your life. I know you will say well wait til it happens to you. Yes, and I will get over it, and move on. Do you know how many times the police searched me, and my vehicles against my wishes? You people have mistaken your Rights for something they are not.

  • Have you read 'your' Bill of Rights? The American Constitution? They're RIGHTS not privileges. Just b/c you take it passively, lying down, without indignation, don't expect ALL your compatriots to be like you and lack the intestinal fortitude to be outraged

  • You missed my point. My point is the police were well within the law in doing this. Therefor there was no violation of anyone's rights.

  • Because the Congress and Senate (95% + of it bought and paid for; corrupt to the core ) pass a law dictating what you can or can not eat does it make it just? It's not natural law. It's tyranny. Just b/c it disguises itself thinly under cover of law is zero justification

  • Thats been that way for a long time. What exactly you think you can do to change it? Nothing so stop worring about it, and get on with you life. History shows Republics never last much longer then 200 years. (Fact)... This ones time is up. We are a nation like any other, and all nations change.

  • total cop-out and you deserve to be a slave. History shows that freedom of the people is something that has to be actively retained or silence - as it's dismantled - is taken for consent. If it's over, it's over b/c of the indifferent attitude to precious liberty of wasters like you. Historically the masses have always been politically inactive and it's always left to a few (only 4% fought in the War of Independance though 100% benefited) to stand up like authentic human beings

  • Well you obviously didnt do any research on this did you? Look at all the failed republics in the past. All have failed due to poor economics, or war. Look at how long China has been the same way. Just about 1500 years... Give or take a few tribal disputes, but China is the worlds oldest living Empire. (Fact) Do your homework.... Blind patriotism leads you nowhere except a long dark lonely path.

  • so there's an inherent mechanism is there? The cyclical view of history? YOU need to acquint yourself with the modus operandi of the elite down the ages: get a precis of how Hegelian Dialectics work - conscious agents throughout history have built up empires then crashed & burned them behind themselves having first created & moved into their new one. A detailed study of history reveals this. The Elite are INTERnationalists. Look up what 'inter' means.& look up Globalism/NWO too while yr about it

  • I had a feeling you were one who believed in the NWO. I just had this hunch. They are usually the type who try to hold onto failing systems. Sadly they are the ones who go down with it.

  • No. I concur with the profile of the uploader. The Elite are simply upgrading their system It's an Open Conspiracy (the title of H G Wells's book of the 30s together with his New World Order & A Brief Outline of History Parts 1 & 2). Spelt out: not a question of "belief", I'm a hardnosed scientist who requires hard evidence & i have that in abundance. Seems you're in denial.Even the alphabet news channels are openly unveiling it you fool. You've been scientifically indoctrinated into doublethink

  • "Well you obviously didnt do any research on this did you? " Appears as if you're projecting your own lack onto me. Re-search is ALL i do. Start reading some books sunshine, you're miles behind

  • Democratic Republics allow the population to become lazy, and ultimately they fail. Communism on the other hand does not allow the population to beceom fat, and lazy. Hence they last far longer, and are 10 times more productive. Unless you get a nosey Republic that thinks its shit dont stink to throw a stick in the gears. Thats the only reason, and way this Country survives. If somethings is in its way it kills it before its becomes to strong. China is our boss now, and look whats happening...

  • Nonsense.Read Dale Scott; better yet, the definitive account, Prof Anthony Sutton's Wall St and the Bolshevik Revolution. Lenin said in 1918 that the Soviet Republic such as it was "will last only 70 years". Marx in 1848 forecast 3 major trading blocs under a central command. Even got the order right: Europe (EU), Americas (NAFTA & it's successor) and the Pacific Rim under the aegis of China. Read Quigley's The Anglo American Establishment which shows the last century was planned 70/80 yrs ahead

  • Well you certainly do your homework... Sadly its in the wrong area. Why must everyone go into Conspiracy Theories? So what im gathering from your comments is that all of recorded human history is a conspiracy theory? I will agree thought the Anglo-American Empire was planned 70 years ago or more, but who cares. Theres always been, and always will be Empires. We are a species just like any other on the planet. When we adapt we tend to adapt also our environment.

  • it's an AGENDA. Look up 'AGENDA' in the dictionary. The AGENDA is written up and published. There is NO NEEED to theorize when the Elite's own documents baldly state the FACTS

  • Ok so lets say that the Elite do want to take over the globe, and trust me I know some Rich people and thats about all the think about. Have nothing better to do i guess.... What exactly do you think you can do to change it? Another thing... What makes you think a "New World Order" is such a bad thing? I have never seen any proof from any of these Conspiracy Theories that shows it this evil empire.

  • This is a military system they're introducing. A high-tech grid. Brzezinski - in Between Two Ages (1973) wrote: shortly ppl will be DOWNLOADED what to think by the media. They don't read the books where its PLAINLY set out & are bamboozled into believing "things just happen". when they were planned a long time ago. Totalitarian tip-toe. COMMUTARIANISM. It'll be a two-strata neo-feudalistic system of the Elite (& their scientific & military auxilaries) & a devolved fully controlled (chipped) serf

  • An excellent intro is Alex Jones's Endgame. Bang on. Splendidly researched/presented (some of his critics mistake his blowhard style for meat n potatoes substance). This is not the best platform to discuss such a vast subject but use Endgame as a point of departure for the sake of having common ground and perhaps in the not-too-distant future i can help you to flesh out some of the facets of this multifaceted interlocking Agenda.I can write the script for them now. Down the rabbit hole with you!

  • Ed* mistake his meat n potatoes substance for a blowhard style, lol

  • U still havent answered my question. I could honestly care less who was doing what, and where. Seriously... Why worry about it if theres nothing you can do. Even if the entire country knew you couldnt change anything.

  • if you couldn't care less then that's your mindset and it's not for me to pump air into a punctured tyre. Why do i worry, however? Because i owe it to my ancestors and to future generations not to be psyched-out by Tavistock techniques such as : "why worry when you're helpless to cause change". I don't accept that. I am interested in Chaos theory for e.g. James Gleick wrote an excellent book of that title and am satisfied that critical mass can effect revolutionary planetary change

  • See there's this "collective" idea everyone points out to me. Why do you care what anyone does or says. Worry about yourself, and fuck the rest of the people. They are nothing... See my family lives by one rule... "If your not blood you dont exist" Call it closed minded even ignorant. It works... Humans are pack animals such as lions for example. When another pride enters that ones territory they remove it. Only the strong survive. When you have this collective you mix in the weak.

  • So what im saying is... You are mixing with lesser humans. Which is ultimately the downfall for the species. Thats why I agree with population control, and if need be Population Reduction. Theres far to many humans now for the Earth to manage. A few billion lower would help me out greatly.

  • "lesser humans"? You mean like Gypsies? Jews? Poles? Homosexuals? Slavs? Downs Syndromers?

    i DO differentiate but for me lesser humans are those who might have sky-high IQs of 186 like Victor Rothschild but have had empathy bypasses, i.e. intergenerationally bred out of them! I value some1 based on their Goodness, Kindness, Decency, Generosity. EvolutionaryTheory as i expectYOU ustand it was introed to polarise the public but to insinuate Social Darwinism. It's the High Freemasonic Doctrine!

  • too many humans? set an example then & do the decent thing. I advise the Roman method of opening up yr wrists in a nice hot tub

    fact is yr under the toxic spell of media propaganda as this planet could "sustain" (their new buzz word) ATLEAST 14 billion ppl. ATLEAST But they don't need us "useless eaters" anymore in a post-industrial society.They'll herd us into "habitat areas"(see Agenda 21, total control grid) depopulating rural areas thru taxation, induced droughts etc then intro biowarfare

  • The Earth's Wilderness areas are down to 40%, and most of which is ice covered. So that leaves around 12%. The Earth can barely support the 6 Billion here now forget about 14 Billion.

  • lol but its transnational corporations who are almost entirely responsible for any serious degredation although that's beside the point as you can fit the entire population of the world in the state of Texas with a decent plot of land to grow their own crops and rear their own livestock. People have been deliberately herded into those artificial constructs called cities (since the age of Nimrod) to be more easily controlled and coerced off the land thru various nefarious means

  • Ed* degrAdation, pardoning yr pardon

  • I agree with what you say about cities. Hence why I dont live in urban areas. I actually hate cities. Have you ever noticed the mind set people from the city have? Its almost like they are a territorial rabid pitbull...lol

  • yes, you're right. They're all hyper-stressed; on a hair trigger..every man for himself..we're simply not DESIGNED to live life so hectically & in just a few years it takes its toll i'm sure; if you're doing ok financially, work from home, own boss or whatever then it's not so bad & the city has its attractions but if you're living on yr wits or on minimum wage chasing bills eating badly travelling at rush-hour then forget it: a nightmarish dystopia and you'll not last long

  • Ok all the bickering aside, and end my trolling rant I would like to state that I do understand what the Elites would like to do. Now let me give you an example of why I know what your saying when it comes to city people, and why I take them with a grain of salt. Last week... My brother was in the mountains with his truck. Yes they outlawed motor vehicles up there, but we view it like this. We grew up there... We took care of the area, Cont...

  • ... and we arent going to allow the tree huggers to come just take over an area that they just believe they can. Well they have been doing just that, and some rich asshole bought up all of the acreage that covers the entire mountain range. I mean ALL of it.... Who the hell has that kind of money? We are talking THOUSANDS of acres... Anyway.... While up there they had a peaceful run in with the tree huggers. Instead of saying to my brother ...Cont

  • "Why do you have your truck up here?" They instead called the State Police. So my brother ended up getting a $50 fine for having a motor vehicle on Private Property, but I mean who do these people think they are? We know they were from NYC cause no local would ever do that. Its like we stick together around here. I mean no one thats local would ever do that. So its like again... Who do these people think they are? Like they fcking own the place.

  • it's those Nazi control freaks at the Elite thinktank the Club of Rome to which Black Nobility & ancient banking dynasty wallahs belong, who wrote in 1 of their books The First Global Revolution that they were creating a new religion based on a form of earth worship. The global warming scam now means a GLOBAL Authority will hammer all of us with "carbon taxes". Soon, ALL privately owned vehicles'll be tracked & taxed, eventually dovetailing with AGENDA 21 that mandates NO private transportation!

  • See that I can see happening now, and I agree with you.

  • collectivism is what's being introduced!Jung (Undiscovered Self) shows that the INDIVIDUAL will come under sustained & relentless assault FROM the collective. You've got it back-to-front. World Science meetings at Loyola Univ in 03 where lots of movers & shakers from politics, business, media, sci-fiction (futurists)attended. They unveiled the brainchip. Ready to go. Described it as the END of individuality, the "hive mind". "All we have to do now is convince the public/false flags/cartoons etc

  • I said it before, and I will say it again. Humans are pack animals. The individual is not natural to us. The collective works much more naturally. We may be the jewel of evolution, but at the core we still have our basic instincts. Living as a Collective whole fits the species best.

  • i'm not, i'm a DANGEROUS LONER, lol. And yet YOU were the one criticising the herd instinct earlier on. Living in free co-operatives is the ideal..crypto-anarchic syndicalism

  • "Even if the entire country knew you couldnt change anything"

    LOL. 3 or 4% will change the world. There're only about 10,000 of them. The police are the battleground. Look at Oath Keepers for instance.

  • lol Oh yea Ive seen those rednecks. You mean the ones who are on the verge of Revolution? Oh dear look out for the deer hunters.... Gimme a break. The Oath Keepers... What a joke.... The Military give or take a few hundred maybe will follow certain orders like to disarm the people, but ANY soldier would fire on the people when threatened. Thats all this powder keg needs. One idiot redneck to start going nuts, and well... You got your Martial Law.

  • And if you ran a red light, didn't pay your ticket and they busted your door down, terrorized your children with guns and forcefully threw you to the ground...you'd be okay with that right? Even if your camera-issued ticket was lost in the mail, you would think you deserved that treatment??? What did your other family members do to deserve the terror???

  • Then do something about it if your so unhappy... Why bitch and complain on Youtube? I wanna see how far they get with their lawsuit. Tbh I dont think, and im not saying this to sound like a dick. Its my honest opinion... I dont see them getting anywhere with it. Theres always things people dont tell you about everything. Im sure this is no exception.

  • I am doing something about it. I'm trying to help educate the idiots of society who have nothing better to do than visiting YouTube.

  • yeah they didn't have a license so they deserve to get raided by half the state of ohio. why not a cease and desist order and a subpena to appear before a court. there was no reason to ransack the place. you make me sick

  • a license: ...you pay money, get a certificate and it's legal; you don't pay money, you don't get a certificate and it's illegal.

    The criminals are the state sanctioned ones you fool

  • So what was the reason they did this? There has to be a reason... The video doesn't state why they were raided. Im going to guess they were selling this out of their home?

  • Only retards guess. This was an illegal raid by NAZIS.

  • Nazis eh?.... Well.... They should have done it legally before they decided to sell the food out of their home. I read the charges against them. Its a 2 second search on Google.

  • You don't isolate a family in their own house for that long over a food license! This was harassment at the least! Anyway, don't bother replying to this cause I won't be back here to read it. People here on this site help me realize how screwed we are as a country and why the police get away with stuff like this.

  • this is horrible...wtf??!!! whats the status on the lawsuit??

  • You give up your freedom when you are addicted to drugs & alcohol; not to mention destroying the family. A helpful & successful place is "The Saint Jude Retreat House For Drugs & Alcohol Abuse." on YouTube.

  • "You give up your freedom when you are addicted to drugs & alcohol;"

    -- TOTAL statist nonsense!!! You are free to be addicted to whatever it is you want. You only give up your freedom when you violate someone elses!!

  • "Government's First Duty Is To Protect The People, Not Run Their Lives." Ronald Reagan

  • Reagan liked running peoples' lives. He was a big supporter of the war on drugs. He liked throwing people into prison for doing drugs.

  • well, he's not the only one...but Reagan being against big government is GREAT

  • proves the alex jones show is spot on, the country heading for marshall law, prime exsample,  but monsanto can poison the world with there filthy gentic seeds, and the f.d.a. line there pockets with kick backs from monsanto while terrorising people like this. once the envy of the world, now america is in its dying years

  • Sounds like you have a clue about what's REALLY going on. Its makes me sick, but it's happening. Once we're gone, there'll be nothing left to stop the complete global takeover...

  • Obama has promised to restore our civil rights but I wonder when he plans to do that. This is absolutely a disgrace and to think her husband is in Iraq fighting for our rights. Why doesn't this get national press?? Is it some kind of war against Americans? Is it to get us desensitized to losing all our rights? What does there senator say? Has he been informed? Is it little cover-ups until we live under marshal law? What the hell is going on?

  • Why would you think Obama cares? He's in on it, too.

  • He's doing a damn good job at taking away our freedoms.  The press these days don't seem too concerned with truth either.

  • As for rights, and freedom. Yes we have rights, but they are to a certain extent. Like for example; 2 nights ago we had an FBI raid across the street. The FBI wouldnt allow anyone on the sidewalk or the local police would arrest you. Our rights dont make us God.

  • We have no RIGHTS. Want proof? Try to assert your rights and you will find out.

  • lol that's kinda what i meant. We have rights to a certain extent. When we try to assert them like you said is when we are put in our place. See? You just worded it different. :)

  • Reading your original post it sounds like we think our rights give us more freedom than they do at least according to the last line.

    Now our rights are pretty much gone. People are routinely arrested for guns and when you REALLY need them (like during the Katrina) they took them away and beat up old women.

    We have the illusion of freedom, but not the actual freedom. Most of it was given up to the war on drugs. It's what grew the police force to get so much power.

  • Yes the Katrina situation was outrageous to me.

    "We have the illusion of freedom, but not the actual freedom"

    I love it when people see through my words. I talk like this because im sick of seeing people bitch and complain at their monitors about things. Yes im sure not ALL of the people here do that, but if everyone got up and actually did something? Well we wouldn't be in this situation I think.

  • The only way we will ever get our freedom back is for a large segment of the population to walk out in the street and demand it back. The problem is with all the new laws, the gov infiltrates rights organizations and labels them terrorists. So for the movement to happen, it needs to happen spontaneously and without leadership. Things will have to get much worse and they are (at this very moment) training for that very scenario. To crush it before it gets big enough to make a difference.

  • exactly, and I would even go as far as stopping traffic during protests, and stopping business in government. We need to take a stand. They obviously are just ignoring us. We need to protest to the point where they can no longer just ignore us. If the current system of Government in the US (well before Obama) doesnt fit the definition of Tyrannical then well.... I would hate to see what people consider tyrannical.

  • unfortunately, the majority of people think you have to be at a level of Stalins Russia before you are totalitarian. If we use that as a benchmark we have a while to go, but that is just the extreme totalitarian. Make no mistake, we are no longer a free nation and the police and government are becoming more and more restrictive. You are right, the only way to stop it is to stop business as usual. As we go along direction where more and more people are poorer we WILL reach the point of unrest.

  • I agree with that comment 100%. I was the same way until I actually woke up, and realized that thats exactly what they are trying to avoid with the way they grab power. A little here...a little there, and all under the peoples collective radar. We need to do something, and do it fast. There is also no need for violence...Look at Vietnam for example... The pressure was constant on the Government eventually they caved in.

  • It's like the story about how you boil a frog. If you put a frog in boiling water it will jump right out, but put it in warm water over a low fire and bring up the temperature gradually and you can boil the frog to death.

  • I also finally got around to reading the charges against these poor people now, and did a 180 concerning what it was that REALLY went on. This is nothing more then a totalitarian assault on honest people doing something that the Government didnt like.

  • This type of behavior from our government has been going on for way too long, this is not the beginning, nor the end. Our rights as "Free Americans" are being pulled away daily by the people in office. I believe in doing right by your family and community. And the constitution will be changed many more times. No privacy, No basic rights, 34-40% of my hard earned $ going to pay for them to knock down doors at a "food co-op". what next? It could be one of us next. Sad, very sad.

  • i personally no longer want to be american and have tired to move elsewhere but it is impossible because no wants us in their country and we are not part of the euro-union, also most men interested in marriage to an american in my experience just want to come live in america to make more money then they can in their own country......

    money the root of all evil, the american way, where ingnorance is overlooked and rewarded ;(

  • i feel soo terrible for them , so many wrong things happen in our country on a daily basis.... if i had money i'd help them regain their belongs best i could..... but i too i'm not "fortunate" as they call it here in the states... best i can do is keep my moral high that injustices such as these will not happen anymore, though i'm sure with companies like monsanto the future is bleak.

  • Obviously, the Food and drug admin. has nothing better to do. A full out raid of this type is unwarranted and creepy, although, anybody knows that one must have a license before they start doing business as a wholsesale food outlet. Again, the punishment does not fit the oops. This country is so messed up.

  • The Stowers appreciate all of the support and fellowship expressed by viewers. Be sure follow youtube/BuckeyeVoices for updates as their case progresses.

  • Unbelievable...

  • Peace and love Jacqueline and John. Peace and love.

  • All this is very scary to me. I know there is something really wrong going on in America...the patriot act took away our privacy in and out of our home. I have a feeling this is just the beginning.

  • its so sad to see what this world is becomming more n more to and that ppl n leaders dont learn from their ancestors. this is fucked up n crazy i dunno what to say, they think we all are criminals, but yea, who rly is the fuck up. weird they rly can go on n do as they do as they wish. we will get it rly rly hard..

  • Folks, if you have not already become HEAVILY ARMED & prepared to USE those arms, you are too late. Time & past time to "prepare"

  • Welcome to the American nightmare. Once this happens to you, you will never feel safe anywhere for the rest of your life because now you know who and what is really in control. Your life means nothing to them and they view us all as the enemy. But WE KNOW who the real enemy is don't we. To bad you and your neighbors didn't have a militia to protect you from these life destroying tyrants. One by one they destroy us and still we refuse to unite against them. It always starts this way.

  • God bless the Stowers, the hubby from the UK?

    I'm appalled and I have already voted a petition against Monsanto and the Codex Allimentus, as a holistic healer, I feel it is important to have the natural alternatives and to have the food we need.

    I use the UK COOP all the time as you know they are ethical and the fruit tastes so much better which is what we need!

    I am glad I am in the UK but bless those who have been hampered with this.

  • This is RIDICULOUS!  This affects all of us as American citizens. Why can't you mind your business and your personal affairs WITHOUT the government stepping in? The problem here is that you, the Stowers, are doing just too well. Jealously, vindictiveness have taken over here but I hope and trust that you will be successful. Peace!

  • The mass American population needs to get involved here and back these people up in their lawsuit. This must not go unchallenged and must be won at the Supreme Court level if needed. This will set a precedent. If this is not challenged and won, it will happen again to many others. Corporations are trying to take over and dictate your rights. It won't be America the free for long if events like this are allowed to go on without consequences to the mafia, (Monsantos).

  • Don't Mess With Mansanto!

    Do what Stalin did, control the food, control the people.

  • Monsanto has a relationship with Rep. Rosa DeLauro (D-Conn), whose husband works for Monsanto, and her obnoxious bill which would cripple organic and local farmers, drive them out of business, and install more of Monsantos genetetically engineered seeds and chemicals into our homes and our bodies.

    Look for House Resolution 875, or the Food Safety Modernization Act of 2009

  • This sounds very familiar. I thought I was going to escape this kind of government when I immigrated to US. I guess I was wrong.

  • What were the charges ?? The story is not very clear. Why not get a business license before you start doing these things? Everybody knows you have to do that. I'm confused.

  • Go to youtube/BuckeyeVoices or to the 1851 Center at the Buckeye Institute. You'll see how that this is, indeed, a licensing dispute, but is a guns-drawn police raid for alleged 3rd degree misdemeanor violation of an easily disputed retail sales law the way citizens should be treated by their government?

    At the Buckeye Institute the answer is 'No'.

  • Totally Outrageous !!

  • So did you sue the crap out of them, Cuz I hope you win this case on behalf of all of us and our constitutional rights.. Police just dont seem to have anything better to do except to harm good people.. instead of the ones that really need to be going to jail.. sickens me!

  • I don't remember the last time I ate anything natural, everything comes in boxes with tons of preservatives and unknown chemicals.

    Even our fruits and vegetables are now being controlled by a large corporation who is taking over the agriculture industry by getting patents for real food.

    I hope the win their case, get their food back and a couple of billion dollars in restitution.

    Don't lose your hope, things will get worse before they get better.

    :)

  • This is a severe case of the US government going from defending the people of the States to becoming a harsh oppressor bullying and using scare tactics to silence any thinking for oneself and forcing us to eat food that is so chemically modified that it actually harms us rather than benefits us! I hope that their lawsuits will bring a change and a freedom to be in our homes without threat of physical and emotional abuse that these people suffered.

  • Excessive force was probably used to put the fear of God into everyone else. It works well, just like the IRS stories. So now, other peaceful people who are helping out their fellow mankind in the same manner will begin questioning whether or not to continue. The powers above want to encourage isolation...and they are using violent force and guns to do so. Where were the people they were helping when this went down? Should have come out in equal defensive mode. Next time, the gov might think .

  • People have tried. Google Waco massacre, or look it up on wikipedia. And that was 16 years ago!

  • (Tried to fight back)

  • WOW!  Waco...I'm seeing how these injustices by the American government have been going on for a very long time.

  • Wouldn't it be nice to have a team of independent from any orgranization or agenda attorneys step up to the plate working pro bono or even work out a contingency agreement for the Stowers to defend them? We the people are an extension of their story because, someday, it could be our story. Where are those attorneys that really care about the rule of law and our civil liberties more than their pocketbooks. I'm not sure the ACLU can be trusted to work for the people anymore.

  • Wow. It`s amazing what people will do for the sake of selfish greed :|
