Excerpt:

So Where Do Anti-Hoarding Laws Come In?

These ideas of anti-hoarding legislation may have stemmed from two areas of confusion:

First is from Executive Orders in place dating back to 1939 which Clinton grouped together under one order, EO #12919 released on June 6, 1994.

The following EOs all fall under EO#12919:

10995–Federal seizure of all communications media in the US;
10997–Federal seizure of all electric power, fuels, minerals, public and private;
10998—Federal seizure of all food supplies and resources, public and private and all farms and equipment;
10999–Federal seizure of all means of transportation, including cars, trucks, or vehicles of any kind and total control over all highways

Thank you for your reply, but I am still missing the whole or part of any law that designates individuals as "criminal hoarders".

Not only did I read the entire blog entry that you exerpted, I downloaded and read EO 12919 in its entirety. Nowhere in this document is criminal food hoarding mentioned. Furthermore, I can find no direct reference to EO 11098, which the blog contends "falls under" EO 12919.

As I posted to you previously, EO 11098 was revoked in its entirety by EO 11490.

As a matter of fact, the blog entry that you cite specifically admits that only in a "roundabout way" can be government "tell us how much food and supplies we can keep". This paragraph is also a part of the blog entry that you have linked us to:

"These EOs are not aimed at anti-hoarding but rather at seizure or confiscation of items and facilities “to provide a state of readiness in these resource areas with respect to all conditions of national emergency, including attack upon the United States.” You’ll find most ’seizure’ legislation ends with this phrase. These Executive Orders don’t define what specifically constitutes a national emergency and maybe this is as it should be. The specifics on hoarding are left up to the individual states."

So I am still left with with questions regarding your original comment on this matter. You stated that "It's already written into law" ... "Those who have stored supplies will be deemed criminal HOARDERS - and there supplies taken." Again I ask you to direct us to the text of this law. It is not found in the link you most recently provided.

Many folks on this forum are now taking food storage and self-sufficiency more seriously than in the past. To make statements that we may be deemed criminals in times of the very emergencies for which they are preparing, should be supported in some substantial way, or disregarded as irresponsibly made ... don't you think?
