>>>>>>Didn’t you go after another poster for this kind of crap?<<<<<<<<

No, I didn’t. I went after him for calling me a “Sheep”, which is an ad hominem. It means pejoratively a mindless animal who follows the leader (shepard).

Convsersely, identifying your apparent political position on food safety as “anarchist” may be harsh but it’s certainly not an ad hominem attack on you personally. Or it shouldn’t be seen that way.

>>>>>Are you getting what I’m saying? Anarchy has nothing to do with it.<<<<<<<

Yep, I get it. But I think you should pick your battles more wisely.

Food inspections and food safety and licensing were put into place for good reasons, and if you travel to countries that don’t have them you’ll see exactly what those good reasons are. Disgusting. Diseases. Illnesses.

IMO the co-op people were challenging very reasonable laws and tilting at windmills. Why didn’t they get a lawyer if they were really serious, or just pay the darned license fee?

Ah. They had “a cause” and “a mission”. They’re “a co-op”.

Uh huh.

That sounds like liberal speak to me. And it most certainly was an attack that was meant as an insult.

Guy we have that now. They load our food with crap and buy from China. At one time the FDA might have had a mission that was worthy but they've gone the way of many Gov entities. I don't think dead squirrels and birds in my pickles is acceptable. Or rat feces.
