Bakers Green Acres vs. Michigan DNR - Family Farm Under Attack

A family farm in rural Michigan may be shut down by a Government Entity who has passed a law stating that the breed of hogs they are raising are a threat to neighboring croplands. In truth, the Big Pork Industry has been planning this campaign to take down all family farms with hopes to eventually siege complete control of the American Food Supply. This short-film was created with hopes to inspire the public to take action.

The Baker Family website is www.bakersgreenacres.com and their battle has just begun. Please join in their fight.

Good Luck from Canada! I'll take one of your 'feral' pigs anytime. The other 80% of your population need to get off their duffs and refuse to eat the 'Frankin-pork' being pushed by the big corporations. Naturally farm raised animals have a higher quality of nutrition and flavour. But then you already know that.

I'm a ex-patriot living in Germany but more interesting is that I am a vegetarian. What's interesting about that? Well, its because I support your cause despite my diet preference! I support what is moral and ethical and this attack on you, your family, your pigs is an outrage...this is one of many patterns playing out that proves there is a "police state" mentality now in the US. This sickness among the people has to STOP! We support your efforts to remedy this Baker Family! Love from Berlin 2U

When the government gets involved in anything you can be sure they will fuck it up. China cedar tress, etc. Fight these bastards.

People this is what they did in former communist countries like Russia&the USSR! Communist countries came after&destroyed the individual&family farms&everyone worked for the government state or collective farms! This caused food production in former communist countries to plummet&if it was not for the "good-ole USA&West there would have been massive fammine in these former communist countries!!! Also food rationing was always part of these communist countries!

What is happening to this family is so wrong!

your real Americans. you make me proud

monsanto is even more insane and needs to be shut-down. The reason they wanted to patent the pig is so that anytime a piglet is born, they can say--'well, you owe us now for each piglet and must pay-up'('cause we own the pig). That's proof the corporate man has lost his mind(not that there wasn't ample proof before that)

[ONE3ARTH2012]

they should be going after factory farms if they were sane, but they're not sane and they collect paychecks by acting insane and going after family farms with insane laws and regulations, it's tyranny. If people knew where they're food came from, they wouldn't be eating food from factory farms(not really a farm, just a factory)i would get some cheap cameras up so if they ever try a raid, catch them in their tyrannical acts.

First they outlaw heritage pigs. Then they create an "eco-pig" patent it and no more Farmers. And what about the health studies on said patented animals? You bet they will be suppressed and contradicted by 10 other studies paid for by big AG. They could easily set up a fine schedule for escaped animals, and farmers can increase fencing and create fencing checks to ensure they are never fined. Any responsible farmer already does have an action plan, as they are liable already for any damage.

I am behind you all the way Baker family. I will be writing my representative here in MI and Debbie Stabenow will be hearing from me as well. A LOT from me. What is being said to you is wrong. Your pigs are not feral.
