MoveOn just sent out a list of options to focus on this year, completely missing what is happening on the ground RIGHT NOW to literally steal the farmland out from under us as collateral on the bailout, and to steal seeds and to  ....

That is, the urban left has MISSED what is happening in our countryside to such as degree, we are all in incredible danger.

PLEASE GET WORD OUT and reach Eli Pariser for his help on this.

And the very same attack is happening TODAY in the UK, and both are probably meant to be hidden by Vilsack's appointment.  

I sent this to MoveOn but don't know if they will see it. 

Eli, 
MoveOn needs to help right now.  Today.  

WAKE UP.  Please.  The land itself is literally being stolen out from under us by the same people who profited by the bailout.

You are missing THE most serious thing happening in the US right now.

Look at the number of comments and I haven't even commented myself yet.


And on the same day, the very same thing is suddenly being enforced in the UK.  

WAKE UP. There is a coordinated move going on against farming, and that includes the appointment of Vilsack on this same day.  Report on Mr. Miller's persecution.  Eli, you are missing the largest civil rights movement in US history - involving all of us, removing our access to the means to survive.  

Look at the number of comments - over 800 and still coming after two days.  You've been missing what is happening in the countryside that threatens everyone of us.  


Please help.

Best,
Linn

P.S.  From Gary Burkholder in Kansas, today:

Dear Linn:   As you know, I have been involved in some Forum Groups overseas for over 7 years.  In that time span,  numerous events and situations impacting both the UK and the USA agriculture have occurred at almost simultaneous times. At first, I thought that was a little strange, but gave it little thought.   After all, random events do occur, and can be just that, random.  However, in the past two weeks, there has suddenly been a rash of these that have occurred again, almost simultaneously, within hours of each other.

Earlier this morning, I sent an e-mail to Mike Callicrate, and to some of these groups, of an article that is on Today's Farmers Weekly Interactive website.   It's about the EU's most recent changes regarding the implementation of Electronic I.D. of livestock in the UK, especially Scotland.  I should have sent you that at the time, but figured you would see it later on today.   Now, about three hours later, you have sent this news regarding the USDA and it's persecution of Mr. Miller regarding premises I.D.   I'm sorry to say this, but what are the odds of this article being published on the very same day as Mr. Miller's court date?
That's almost too coincidental, not to be asking questions.   The EU has long had a choke-hold on its Member States farmers;   the red tape and rules regarding animal movement, production licenses, compliance programs, etc, is unbelieveable.   And it's happening to us in just the same way.   If NAIS is forced on our producers, we will be in the same boat as Euopean farmers and stockmen.

Met libertarian and conservative farmers and learned an incredible amount about farming and nature and science, as well as about government violations against them and against us all. The other side of the fence is nothing like what we've been (more...)
