More likely, they raided because the store was owned by hippies.

Then, guns drawn, four officers fanned out across Rawesome Foods in Venice. Yes, yes, but were they wearing gas masks?

What are the charges?
Aggravated agriculture? Felonious farming?
Time for the nanny state to take a time out.

There's a medical marijuana shop a couple miles away, and they're raiding us because we're selling raw dairy products?" That's because reefer will make you stupid, whereas ecoli, botulism, and salmonella can make you dead.

I *love* that they sought comment from the Minnesota Ag rep. While the actual story was near Venice Beach. This kind of thing can’t be made up... Anyone with an interest in the subject might also consult: Alexander Cockburn, “A meat column for July fourth.” June 30, 2000

What are the charges?"Then, guns drawn, four officers fanned out across Rawesome Foods in Venice. Skirting past the arugula and peering under crates of zucchini, they found the raid's target inside a walk-in refrigerator: unmarked jugs of raw milk."
Key word is UNMARKED. Raw dairy is legal for sale in California, but regulations (including labeling) must be followed.

This is about making sure people are safe.
Please, Please Mr. Government, make sure I am ‘safe’. I am too stupid to take care of myself. Please tell me what to eat, how much salt to eat, how many calories, how much sugar.
Maybe you should ‘raid’ my home to make sure I am not eating anything illegal?
By the way, I smoked a cigarette today, and drank a small bottle of Vodka. Am I under arrest now?

"I still can't believe they took our yogurt,"Heh-heh!
I shouldn't laugh though. I grew up on illegal raw milk, straight from Betsy the cow.

Aahh ah ahahahaaa, aahh ah ahahahaaa
What will you do if we let you go home,
And the plastic’s all melted,
And so is the chrome?
WHO ARE THE BRAIN POLICE?
Aahh ah ahahahaaa, aahh ah ahahahaaa
What will you do when the label comes off,
And the plastic’s all melted,
And the chrome is too soft?
Aaahhh!
Think I’m very tired and I’m going to die
I think I’m going to die, I think I’m going to die
WHO ARE THE BRAIN POLICE?
Aahh ah ahahahaaa, aahh ah ahahahaaa
What will you do if the people you knew
Were the plastic that melted,
And the chromium too?
WHO ARE THE BRAIN POLICE?

I grew up on illegal raw milk, straight from Betsy the cow. I drank nothing but raw milk growing up. Strained through a dish towel if we were having company. We never considered it illegal. Did you steal it from the cow, milking under fraudulent consent? Or is there something else you want to tell the nice Freepers.
