There needs to be a way to tell these clowns that they don't have a fundamental right to tell WE THE PEOPLE what our fundamental rights are.

> Plaintiffs do not have a fundamental right to produce and consume the foods of their choice...

Holy cow!
Did this judge study under Stalin?

Not surprising. There are people here on FR who don’t understand the 9th amendment either.

"This court is unwilling to declare that there is a fundamental right to consume the food of one's choice without first being presented with significantly more developed arguments on both sides of the issue"

WOW. You can only consume the food the government says you can consume. I think things have gone too far.

How many millions of Russians starved to death under Stalins food rules? How far are we going to let the American Stalinsts go?

Sounds like everyone involved was confused, including the judge. It would help to understand the thrust of the article if the statute being interpreted was set forth.

But at least the Fundamental Presidential Rights to Bounce Checks in the Peons Name has not been infringed. Or for Presidents wives to eat caviar, in Spain.

Sufficient length of rope and a sufficiently tall tree.

What could the government possibly do to enforce their law that a person cannot consume raw milk...have the raw milk police watch over everybody with a cow? A ridiculous statement from a public official who doesn’t know what the constitution means.

Strange, how these people choose to live 'here'; rather than in a country that shares their belief system of 'no Individual Rights'. Oh, that they would choose instead to live in these places - instead of here, in what is supposed to be - the land of the 'free'.

Have they even tried to relocate to experience the 'good' they so covet from our communist 'friends' . . .how about just a vacation to get a feeling of totalitarian authenticity. . .

You can kill your baby but you cannot drink what you wish? Whisky and absinthe are ok, milk from a cow is forbidden? The poison that is Nutrasweet can be consumed at any quantity but no sip of milk?

—”no, Plaintiffs do not have a fundamental right to produce and consume the foods of their choice...”—

He is correct. The precident is set. Although I take drugs of no kind, I’ve been irked my whole life that the government presumes to be able to make it illegal to consume a herb that can grow wild on your property - marijuana.

It is ridiculous on the face of it. At least, it is in a country that is attempting to present the illusion that its citizens are free.

Good grief! I’ve better hurry and get the last of my tomatoes harvested before this judge takes them away. I’ll leave the cukes on the vine because they are bitter. I hope the judge chokes on them.

I own land
what I do with that land is my decision
it is protected under the Constitution via ‘life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness’
if I plant crops on that land... they are my property as well
what I do with that property is also my decision
if I choose to sell, destroy or eat... it’s up to me

I agree, but it seems that there are some who judge and govern us who do not. They need to be stopped.

I have always wanted to run a bar called “The Hanging Judge”.

I’d charge customers a buck to swing on his ankles.
