You've talked about the raw milk, no mention of the fishing part.

Two fucks from my hometown decided to net over the entire local fishing river last year, caught hundreds of fish, and went door to door selling them.
Sold only a fraction of them, and dumped the rest on waste ground. I heard you could smell the fish around town the next day.

This year there's gently caress all fish in that river now, they destroyed the population.
So yay libertarianism, gently caress the laws!

To be fair, Monsanto is pretty much the worst company, and it's bizarre that the anti-GMO people are focusing on the least offensive aspect of a company that sues 80-year-old farmers into the ground for growing the same plants they've grown for decades.

Rain water has nothing to do with it, though.

Someone in Oregon, i think, was arrested and fined for blocking up rivers snow and rain water meltoff that refills rivers and storing the water in giant reservoirs on their property. It was reported by Fox and other news outlets as "Arrested for storing Rain Water!!!!!", probably because of the wording in the old rear end law they were cited under, and the conspiracy took off from there.

I would love to invite the raw milk people out to my grandparents' farm for awhile. I feel like they're imagining one of those California cheese commercials where Bessie is singing and galloping through the fields when in actuality cows are nasty, dumb fuckers who spend all day eating grass coated in their own poo poo.



Look at this loving thing. Also, raw milk tastes pretty drat gross.

Pasteurization is literally just heating something to kill bacteria and then cooling it down. Of all the "unnatural" things you could protest against this has got to be the most inane. Please do not drink raw milk, people. Or worse, give it to your chidlren :psyduck:

All these are posted by the same person, except the orange censored ones are posted to his account that he completely unironically named after his dumb elf D&D character, while the red ones are posted to his personally named account.

Note: this guy has literally complained about being a Nice Guy (and everything associated with that) and on a different occasion said, and I quote: "I don't know any women who haven't hosed at least two guys at the same time". He wasn't taking the piss or anything either- he honestly said it as if it was an appropriate comment to make in a mixed gender room during a light discussion about gender politics. But no, it's everyone else that's the problem :rolleyes:

I sent this to a libertarian friend of mine. He replied with this:

quote:

Those guys were foolish. But i have no problem if a law protects people from other people, within reason. but people will do it if they can get away with it. Like with elected officials... rule of law does not apply in the US as is. you're just as bad as the person who gets away with it. All people have to do to let evil triumph is nothing;.
You seem to think it's ok for people to be elected with a vote. but not with money which in essence is the most pure form of choice. I'm not big business, because they can hire people to find loopholes in the system and loby for special legislation.
Government is a business. weather you think it or not trusting something with so much power is silly.
Giving people immunity to the law because they were elected by popular/electoral vote is as bad as creating a public aristocracy. Something many people who profess to wanting a strong middle class would be against.
My ideal society would have people pay for crimes. but there would be no victimless crimes. these idiots you linked hurt business, recreation, and consequently someones livelyhood due to their incompetance. LIBERTARIANS in the north american sense aren't anarchist.

I don't think there's any actual instances of them doing that. They get called out a lot, but when you actually look into the details of the cases involved, they're basically always radically different from how they're portrayed.

Like, the most famous "Monsanto is an rear end in a top hat company" case is probably Monsanto Canada Inc. v. Schmeiser, which the anti-monsanto/anti-GMO activists (and Schmeiser himself) portray as the guy getting randomly sued after some of Monsanto's seed drifted onto his fields. Which, obviously, would be terrible. But this leaves out some rather crucial facts revealed at trial, such as that Schmeiser had in fact discovered the contamination of one of his fields with Monsanto seed, had isolated it by spraying the field with roundup herbicide (which kills most plants, but not the Monsanto 'roundup ready' crops), and had saved and replanted the seed from the surviving crop. In fact, some 95% of his crop in the year the case pertained to was the 'Roundup ready' variety, a level which cannot plausibly occur through simple contamination.

Personally, I don't like that genetic modification of crops is so much in the hands of private corporations. I'd prefer to see it done by public universities or something along those lines, with the products being free of encumbering licensing agreements, for the benefit of all. But given that Monsanto is a private business, it doesn't seem as though their behavior has been especially egregious, once you get past the hype surrounding it.

It was illegal in Colorado to collect rainwater until 4 years ago and only this year was a bill passed to allow people to collect greywater, which is water collected from showers, sinks, etc. It was illegal because they were worried about water rights distribution since Colorado sends so much of its water to other states like Arizona and California. These were only made legal after studies showed that something like 90% of that water never actually made it to rivers, but instead either evaporated or was used by plants.

That's what pisses me off so much about these bullshit micros, they don't acknowledge the actual reasons something may be illegal in the first place, and in the instances of pot and rainwater here in Colorado, have been made legal again once we learned more of the facts.
