A rally has been set for tomorrow in front of the magistrate's office in Mt. Holly, Pa., in support of a Mennonite farmer who has brought the wrath of the government on himself for selling raw milk and other products – an act government prosecutors say violates a number of regulations.
That's when the next court hearing is scheduled for Mark Nolt, a Pennsylvania farmer who turned in his state permit to sell raw milk because it didn't allow for the sale of the other products he offered.
"They swooped in ... like a bunch of Vikings, handcuffed me and stole $30,000 worth of my milk, cheese and butter," he told the New York Daily News.
His case is just an example of what the government is trying to do to those who believe – based on medical results – that raw milk is better for them than the processed milk available in most grocery stores, according to Nolt's supporters.
Processed milk, many believe, leads to clogged arteries, strokes and heart attacks.
According to reports published by the Weston A. Price Foundation, results of a study by the Medical Research Council in the United Kingdom revealed only one percent of the subjects in an ongoing lifestyle study of 5,000 men suffered heart attacks – if they drank full-fat milk and ate butter rather than margarine.

And when some kind of food borne illness breaks out who are the first to start yipping about the people not being protected by government and the big bad corporations for not having enough safety measures in place.

The Mennonites are a big, bad, corporation? That's odd. I thought the were a religious sect dedicated to living simple lives of non aggression.

The freedom to be survailed. No thanks. The freedom to buy raw milk anywhere I want, don't think so. How about the freedom to not have anyone X-ray me when flying...whoops gone. Maybe you have me confused for an illegal alien.

The milk police strike a victory for the common man? All hail the milk police?
WTF? Don't these people have anything at all better to do? How about chasing those pesky milk terrorists?
