Looks like the site was taken down.

Images of storm troopers, Soviet KGB and grim, sinister, futuristic men-in-black characters from a dystopian society in a movie come to mind.....did the United States government switch places with North Korea overnight?

George Orwell and our Founding Fathers are spinning like lathes!

[Jack Hammer]

Obama’s quietly been developing his very own Sturm Abteilung to keep an eye on YOU.

gimme a break!

isnt’ it obvious? It should be as obvious as a smack upside the head!

People who prepare will have more than food. They will have guns, ammo, silver, cash, medicine, seeds for planting gardens, clothing...all sorts of things.

When there is a power grab by a dictator, the biggest enemies of that dictator will be the people who are not at the dictators mercy...ie preppers. When the economy crashes, and the US dollar is worthless, you can bet your ass the government will try to confiscate as much as they can from those that prepared so that they will have something to give to the rioting masses. That will be their only hope for staying in power.

Were these IRS agents seeking information that supported the profit/loss claimed by the food storage cannery? Seems to me that the IRS can request receipts, records, etc., in an audit of a tax return.

[Errant]

True.

Yes, our Church teaches that each family should be prepared with one year supply of food and water. It’s a good idea for every family. I wonder what the feds were up to?

[Logical me]

Another step in the new communists America. Are we waking up yet?

The government has identified every source of cash, natural resources, ammunition, and food and is quietly cornering the market on all of them. The healthcare law was designed to control the huge amount of money in the healthcare industry. They will someday control the people through the control of their healthcare, their sources of food, and other resources(heat, etc) Any one who has large stores of any of these represents a threat to their control.

[concerned about politics]

Sounds like you folded like a cheap suit. Shoulda been one can in the pantry of None-Of-Your GD Business brand baked beans.

I agree. I'd have fudged the heck out of it. It wouldn't have been anywhere near accurate. It's none of the teachers unions business what or who we have in our home.

The girl had to do the project, but the union wouldn't have gotten anything real from us. One cupboard empty, the next full. One refrigerator shelf empty, one full. The family photo would have been so distant, faces would be too small to be seen.

They would have ended up with nothing to use for peer pressure against my kids.The union will make those who have food feel guilty because another may not have it. Those with real families will be made to feel guilt, because their parents are too normal. They'll be made to feel guilty because they have while others do not.

This was a socialist study class. Socialism is being taught. The kids are being trained to feel guilty about their lives.

Mormons haven’t had religious rights in America since they were forced to prohibit polygamy as a condition of Utah statehood.

I would only change one word. “Mormons” to “Americans”.

That said, the historical fact is not very well known at all IMHO.

[LadyBuck]

How long before the teacher asks for pictures of your gun cabinet...

[AppyPappy]

“A fellow veteran”

Does he have a name?

[Thank You Rush]

I would say they are picking the Mormons first because its easier to get - whatever their agenda is - started! They know the Mormons have large amounts of food stored away. This is pretty scary and we could guess all day long what their motivation is and we’d probably all be right.

I suspect there are lots of freepers that would welcome this question at their own front doors! Including this one!
Be nice to see more reporting on it - is it happening just to the Mormon community and is it happening nationwide?

Time to ask our reps some questions!!

[Saundra Duffy]

I don’t blame you for being upset about your daughter’s school “project” - That is really frightening!!! What has happened to our America?

[sport]

As long as the Federal Government does not mess with the NFL, NBA, or major league bseball the sheep will remain pacified and docile.

[sten]

otherwise known as “the have’s”

it would be interesting to determine with other mormon canneries have had similar visits

[brent13a]

Exactly which Federal Agency were these "Federal Agents" from? Or perhaps it was just the Men in Black?
The Oathkeepers website won't load for me either, however, they could have taken it down themselves. That would add to the story for sure.
I'm sorry, I don't buy a lot of this crap anymore, the Feds can't keep track of anything: money, cars, equipment, etc. So what makes anyone think they could handle a task such as spying on "prepared americans"?
Also, I never understood the massive media campaign the Oathkeepers have pushed since the group's inception. You would think the group would be better as a word-of-mouth organization with very little centralization and operating it's membership and newsletters through snail mail. The group has been it's own worst enemy, putting itself out front from the get-go put it in the spotlight from the get-go. No wonder it's at the top of DHS' lists.
