NaturalNews exclusive: Michigan government unleashes armed raids on small pig farmers, forces farmer to shoot all his own pigs

government unleashes armed raids pig farmers forces farmer shoot pigsMonday, April 16, 2012

(NaturalNews) NaturalNews can now confirm that the Michigan Department of Natural Resources has, in total violation of the Fourth Amendment, conducted two armed raids on pig farmers in that state, one in Kalkaska County at Fife Lake and another in Cheboygan County. Staging raids involving six vehicles and ten armed men, DNA conducted unconstitutional, illegal and arguably
criminalarmed raids on these two farms with the intent of shooting all the farmers' pigs under a bizarre new "Invasive Species Order" (ISO) that has suddenly declared traditional livestock to be an invasive species.

Farmer forced to shoot his own baby piglets in cold blood"I think this is an unconstitutional order, these actions of the DNR are way out of bounds," attorney Joseph O'Leary told NaturalNews in an interview today. He is representing one of the farmers who was targeted in these raids. "To take what was six months ago an entirely legal activity, and suddenly people are felons over it. They're not growing drugs, running guns or killing anybody, they're raising animals pursuant to USDA regulations and state of Michigan regulations. They haven't done anything wrong here, and the DNR is treating them like they are hardened criminals."

In anticipation of the DNR arriving on the scene, one farmer engaged in what can only be described as a heart-wrenching task ofshooting his own pigs, one by one, including baby pigletsbefore the DNR arrived. This was to avoid being arrested as a felon. His livelihood is now completely destroyed, as the state of Michigan has put him out of business. Even after this farmer informed the DNR that he had destroyed his entire herd of pigs, the DNR continued to illegally acquire a search warrant by providing false information to a court Judge, then conducting an armed raid on his ranch to verify that the entire herd of pigs had indeed already been shot to death. That this took place satisfied the DNR, which is now showing itself to be engaged in the mob-styledestruction of targeted farming businessesthrough its mass-murder agenda of Michigan's small-scale farm pigs.

"It was very traumatic for him. These guys are farmers, and I know how much he cared for the animals there, and the DNR treats these like they're some kind of a plant that needs to be exterminated rather than animals that people care about," said O'Leary.

Here is what one of the raided farmers had to say about his experience of being forced to destroy his pigs:

"I was served a search warrant yesterday at 7: 45am. I have killed all my hogs. [DNR] gave me papers that say I do not have any hogs on my property. All they saw were dead hogs laying around from my mass slaughtering. It took 12 guys 4 times in there to kill all of them, sows with young, Pregnant sows, dozens of piglets, and old mature boars. It has been a sad few weeks. Does anyone know what it feels like to open fire on 20 baby piglets in one group which weigh between 5 lbs and 15 lbs. They are so adorable and cute. They commented to everyone that they never saw a fence built so tough and no way would a hog get out of this area."(www.BakersGreenAcres.com)

    This is wrong on so many levels. In the first place, this isn't under the DNR's jurisdiction, secondly, the idea that raising stock is a felony is ridiculous. These farmers have been put out of business for no valid reason.

    Across the country, small farmers and co-ops are being targeted for raids such as this that are totally outrageous. A catered dinner of organic food had to be thrown out and bleach poured on it...50,000 pounds of organic cheese confiscated...co-ops having all their food ruined...dairy farmers shut down...

    People are being put out of business and arrested for simply wanting to eat healthy food! Yet the USDA sees fit to feed school children pink slime, the government sees no problem with genetically modified foods and doesn't even require they be labeled, fluoride, a neurotoxin listed on the EPA website, is put in water...our government is completely out of control!

    All livestock including chickens,goats,cattle,horses could be called invasive species.Citizens deserve what they are willing to tolerate.Seems like we deserve tyranny and oppression so far.If we don't stop tolerating it today then when? Tomorrow,next week,next year,let our children deal with it,our grand children?
