    Michigan government unleashes armed raids on small pig farmers, forces farmer to shoo

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


    Monday, April 16, 2012
    by Mike Adams, the Health Ranger

    (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 criminal armed 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.

    See our previous report on this subject at:

    Insane Michigan government announces plan to destroy ranch livestock based on hair color and arrest hundreds of ranchers as felons

    And hear my interview with Mark Baker, who runs one of the farms to be targeted by the Michigan government, at:

    Michigan government plans to destroy entire livestock of local pig farmers - Interview with Mark Baker - NaturalNews.tv

    The ISO also deems farmers who raise these pigs to be felons, and DNR officials were ready to make arrests on the scene and haul away these farmers to be prosecuted as hardened criminals.

    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 of shooting his own pigs, one by one, including baby piglets before 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-style destruction of targeted farming businesses through 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)

    One of the raids targeted Ron McKendrick of Renegade Ranch in Cheboygan County. His ranch was raided on Saturday morning, and DNR agents reportedly conducted an interrogation of his customers and his 75-year-old senior citizen employee. In order to gain access to his property, DNR bureaucrats acquired a temporary restraining order which was used to bully their way onto the property (a violation of the Fourth Amendment).

    Another raid was conducted against the farm of Dave Tuxberry. He's the man who was forced to shoot all his own pigs before DNR agents arrived, in order to avoid being arrested as a felon.

    Call for arrest of Michigan's DNR agents

    Based on the actions of the DNR, it is my belief that the DNR is a rogue, criminal gang of government thugs who are murdering livestock, destroying the lives of farmers, violating the constitutional rights of Michigan citizens and engaging in outrageous acts of destruction of private property.

    I believe it is the duty of law-abiding Michigan citizens to call for the immediate arrest of DNR officials who must be brought to justice for their crimes against Michigan farmers. Every agent of the DNR that participated in these raids must be brought to justice to answer for their crimes. If the use of force is necessary to make a lawful and legal arrest of these criminal Michigan government agents, then such use of force is fully authorized under the United States Constitution as well as the Constitution of the State of Michigan. It is under these laws, in fact, that police officers are given firearms to use in the protection of the People. In Texas, the state Constitution even says that farmers have the right to use lethal force to prevent someone from committing a felony crime against their property. This includes shooting horse thieves, for example, and being in the right to do so.

    No government has any right to terrorize its citizens in the way that has been witnessed here with the DNR of Michigan. These people are utterly out of control, waging a private armed war against selective targets, using taxpayer money to destroy the lives of productive Michigan citizens. These DNS agents are dangerous and clearly psychologically imbalanced. They desperately need to be reminded of the tenants of lawful government and the rights of citizens. They need to be immediately arrested and given the privilege of a trial by jury to answer for their crimes against farmers.

    While I do not espouse the use of violence to resolve issues with government, when innocent farmers are faced with being raided by criminal gangs of rogue government operatives who are forcing them to destroy their entire livestock herds, there is little choice but to halt the actions of these criminals through lawful arrest and bring them to justice in the court system where they must face charges of conspiracy, destruction of private property, the violation of the civil rights of private citizens, illegal trespassing and much more. This is the whole point of the Second Amendment, by the way: To give the People some balance of power so that they might protect themselves against the overzealous, tyrannical agendas of out-of-control governments which inevitably try to rule over the People as violent dictators.

    Take action: Join the hearing this Friday

    A court hearing is scheduled this Friday at 9:00 am at the courthouse in Cheboygan County. I have been told that a very important legal strategy to halt this DNR madness will be unveiled in the courtroom that morning. Ron McKendrick, whose ranch was raided by DNR over the weekend, will be appearing in this hearing.

    I am calling upon all patriots, farmers and food rights activists in Michigan to be there on Friday morning and join in this show of support for farming freedom and fundamental human rights. Do we not have the right to raise livestock without the state raiding our property and murdering our animals? And why is this not being covered in the national media?

    Also: This battle continues to be waged by Mark Baker at www.BakersGreenAcres.com who desperately needs additional legal funds to continue his fight against the out-of-control government tyrants in Michigan who are trying to destroy farms. Please check his website for updates and make a small donation (even $5 or $10 helps) using the "Donate" button on his website.

    NaturalNews will continue developing this story and we anticipate bringing you more details after the Friday hearing. In the mean time, I will continue to call for the immediate arrest of DNR officials who are now, by any standard, runaway criminal thugs who are operating under the false cover of government. If anyone has a list of the names of these people, please contact NaturalNews with that list so that we can publish them under a "WANTED FOR CRIMES AGAINST THE PEOPLE" heading as we continue to call for their arrest.

    Watch NaturalNews for more breaking news on this front. In the mean time, as a message to Michigan farmers: Yes, they really ARE coming for you. You need to get together and deputize a 20-man posse to catch these thugs and arrest them at gunpoint, then haul them into the local Sheriff's office to be booked and prosecuted.

    Take Action

    Today, I am urging you to join hundreds of thousands of NaturalNews readers, DrudgeReport readers and InfoWars listeners across the country in taking action to loudly and aggressively denounce the Michigan state government's actions in terrorizing farmers and forcing a slaughter of their traditional animal herds.

    Tell ya what people, we are fast slipping into the socialist/nazi/fascist/big brother state that the globalist have done so well to create slowly like the trap closing in on the killing of these poor animals.

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

    Imagine, success was when a society prospered and everyone had everything they needed. Everyone was happy.

    This madness is part of the Agenda 21 stuff that is being implemented all over America now for the UN world bankster IMF money-changer globalists. It is the beginning of the end of American freedoms, and the rights to live our lives the way we want to. Try to imagine being forced at gun point to kill your own animals and then be threatened with imprisonment and torture in a private prison for profit system.

    This is bad people. Really bad when they can force their way onto your property and invade you like this for little reasonable cause. Every American should be angry as heck. Who is actually voting for this kind of police state? Is this the "change" everyone wanted so badly?

    Not only do we Americans declare war on the entire world, we declare war on ourselves. What kind of madness and insanity is this that everyone seems to support by the ignorance and do nothig attitude about this real life or death evil that is seeking to kill us all off? All this is happening while the majority of people who could change all this over night is bickering and dickering back and forth amongst themselves on chitty-chat sites and phones that will be the dust of tomorrow's next year.

    Is it too late?

    Americans better unite against the common enemy that professes at the divide and conquer methodology pitting Americans against each other. The trouble is, many swallow the kook, line, and sinker and gladly enjoin the tit-for-tat name calling and petty arguments over who's side is right, and whose is wrong. When good men and women stand down to this kind of evil, it will eventually get to all ivory towers and as has been shown to you all time and time again, all falls down.

    What has come out of the woodwork of America is the people that are highly intelligent and rapidly getting involved to make real changes. On both sides of the leading republican candidates campaign pages we see great debate going on now. Positive and respectful debates and less and less of the blatant fraud and underhandedness from the troops of the Romney crew. Less childishness will save us all if the country continues to recognize the real enemies that are in the propaganda state media, and corrupted congress and senate.

    We are all Americans, and divided we will all fall to this kind of invasive harm that comes in the night dressed in black and armed to kill at the drop of a hat. If we all in America remain divided, like in this sad case here we will all be picked off one at a time for simply invoking our God given rights and the Rule of Law in this land our forefathers conquered.

    Remember this age old adage that is engraved in Stone:

    We hang together...or we hang separately.

    Is your neighbor your enemy, or is it this force of evil dressed in black and armed to kill that will come for your guns and freedoms some night at 4:35 am?

    Choose well because this kind of police state terror is just beginning. Can you say, the Illegal act NDAA?
