Feds steal 350 acre Camp Zoe

http://www.lewrockwell.com/blog/lewrw/archives/113585.html

Entrepreneur and musician James Tebeau, whose Camp Zoe concert venue was one of Shannon County, Missouri’s largest employers, has accepted a plea agreement in which he will forfeit his 350 acre property and serve a prison sentence for “maintaining a drug-involved premises.”

Tebeau played bass in an ensemble called the Schwag Band and hosted a number of concert events including the annual “Schwagstock” festival. The agreement stipulates that Tebeau neither participated in drug sales, nor did he profit from them. Yet he faces a prison term of two and a half years and the loss of his property.

Maybe he should have been gun-running weapons to Mexico or, better yet, stealing a billion-plus in customer segregated funds out of brokerage accounts.  Those seem to be protected activities. Cussing Face

City-paid goons destroy woman's garden

In exchange, her food and medical bills will increase.

Any independence from the system must be absolutely discouraged.

The ability to bypass Big Agri and Big Pharma, in a pinch, cannot be tolerated.

Control the food/water = control the people.


A Tulsa, Oklahoma woman is suing the city's code enfarkment officers after she said they cut down her garden with no cause.

Denise Morrison said she has more than 100 plant varieties in her front and back yards and all of them are edible and have a purpose.

She knows which ones will treat arthritis, which will make your food spicy, which ones keep mosquitoes away and treat bug bites, but she said none of that matter to city inspectors.

Last August, Morrison's front and back yards were filled with flowers in bloom, lemon, stevia, garlic chives, grapes, strawberries, apple mint, spearmint, peppermint, an apple tree, walnut tree, pecan trees and much more.

She got a letter from the city saying there had been a complaint about her yard. [There's always some envious jerkhole causing trouble.]

She said she took pictures to meet with city inspectors, but they wouldn't listen, so she invited them to her home so they could point out the problem areas.

"Everything, everything needs to go," Morrison said they told her. [Start with the bast ... "badges".]

[They break your leg, then accuse you of being a cripple.]

Fragility and Collapse: Slowly at first, then all at once

http://cluborlov.blogspot.com/2012/06/fragility-and-collapse-slowly-at-first.html

“This is all doom and gloom, isn’t it?” To which I say, “For you, maybe, if you don’t have any other plan except to wait for everything to somehow magically fix itself.”

You see, building something that works takes a lot of time and effort. Things stop working in a hurry, but making a replacement takes time, resources, and, most importantly, stability. This can only be done ahead of time, and doing so takes practice (by which I mean learning from one’s own plentiful mistakes).

The comments are worth reading as well.

LiFTeRs

Developed in America, but abandoned because you can't quickly make weapons material from them. Roll Eyes

Do I need to tell you where these are actually being built, thanks to technology theft transfers?
By the time your useless-as-d0g$#!t "news" mentions it to you, several of these will be
in operation ... somewhere else. Oh, and after that point, if the U.S. wants to build them, there will be royalties due on every kilowatt generated.
