HR 875: Action?

It is true, if this passes it will give corruption reign over our backyards and make it possible to legally force us to chemically treat all food grown in the country. But it is not clear to me what a proper course of action is.

Do we oppose this bill by participating in the corrupt system that continues to sap our time and energy from us, or do we simply organize our communities into growing centers and "standup" for what is fair. The bottom line is, this government will do what ever it want to regardless of what we "oppose". The problem is not the outcome of this bill, it is the very presence of it. This is not the product of leaders in a free country. It is a continuation of the past eight years: Fear, stripping of personal freedoms, and war.

We must be careful and very thoughtful about what we will be condoning and participating in when we show resistance. And we must understand that by any other means than Nonviolence resistance simply a contribution to the senslessness and indifference that brought us to this point. How can we make this a turning point for freedom and not simply a revival of war and slavery in our country? This is about our food; our right to Live off the Land.

To Seed Bomb? Or to make bags? That is the question.

The Dirt is the only place we can make change. To keep participating in the one thing which will forever remain true. Mother Earth.

natural existence. We will be free no matter what.

You make a valid point. participation in this contrived expedient government will really get us nowhere new. We can't forget why we chose not to vote, we can not forget why we lost all hope. we must remember how to move forward. we must remember to be the change.

to grow and to grow and forever grow grow grow!
