"After almost 18 years as a Dane County judge, Patrick Fiedler has decided to leave the bench and go into private practice.
“I feel now is the right time,” said Fiedler." source Wisconsin State Journal.
It sure is nice to know that Patrick Fielder is off the bench, but not until his now infamous ruling in the Craig\Zinniker case that we do not have an inherent right to consume the food we choose. The ruling he wrote was actually strange in my opinion. We have the right to drive through fast food restaurants and eat microwaved burgers at gas stations, but you can not have a glass of milk from your own cow. How udderly ridiculous. With this kind of power it makes one wonder why he would leave that judicial seat. Hmmmm???
Well I received the following information this afternoon from G.L., I will not theorize here but rather let you draw your own conclusions.
Earlier this month, Wisconsin Judge Patrick J. Fiedler issued a response to the Farm-to-Consumer Legal Defense Fund regarding the Constitutionality of food rights. In his response, Judge Fiedler stated “Plaintiffs do not have a fundamental right to consume the milk from their own cow.” He then went further stating, “Plaintiffs do not have a fundamental right to produce and consume the foods of their choice.”
So, what does this mean? You have NO right (according to Judge Fiedler) to raise animals, crops or even an orchard or backyard garden. You have NO right to choose what food you eat. The government has the right to mandate or prohibit the consumption of any food.
What would motivate Judge Fiedler to issue such a shocking ruling against food rights? Well, a quick Internet search reveals some clues. Within days of his ruling against food rights, Judge Fiedler announced he has decided to retire and will resign his position as judge September 30. He will go into private practice, as an attorney for the Axel Brynelson Law Firm.
I did some research on the Axel Brynelson Law Firm and found that in May 2010, the firm represented Monsanto in a lawsuit concerning a DNA patent. So, within days of ruling that Americans have no right to produce and consume the foods of their choice, Judge Fiedler is hired by a law firm that represents Monsanto. What a coincidence!
Strange bedfellows indeed!
I had posted this to a national food freedom blog earlier this year. After seeing the actions of the FDA this summer I think it deserves a second look here.

We have witnessed "The War on Drugs" and "The War on Terror" for too many years as a vehicle for federal tyranny and a simple excuse to take away our States Rights, Constitutional rights and personal liberties. Now we have reached the pinnacle. The coming "War on Food" will only create more felons, prisoners, and law enforcement jobs. We can expect an increase in food raids against the private buyers clubs, farmers markets, and eventually your garden. You will be criminalized for growing your own nutritionally dense organic foods, even possession of a slice of raw cheese may be enough to get you time in their ever growing prison system.
The raid of Rawsome Foods this past year (2010) was a test for the new "War on Food". Jackbooted thugs coming into a private food distribution center with guns drawn! Yes, that is what we can expect to see over the coming years as the FDA and the USDA become militarized. There are already plans on the table for the federal agencies to recruit help on the state level from agencies, such as DATCP here in Wisconsin, to enforce this draconian "Food Safety" legislation. When we wake up in 2011 farmers will be relegated to the level of drug dealers and those who choose to consume those homegrown foods as junkies. Your neighbor may even get a reward if they call the FDA hot line and report that you have too many tomato plants in your garden. Are you prepared for when the FDA comes crashing through your garden fence in the name of "Food Safety"?
There is a war on for your food. Will you stand up to this tyranny, or live in fear and be a good slave?
The tyranny we are about to face in this country will make the oppressive days of the Soviet Union look all too mild.

There is a growing movement within the “Raw Milk” movement to sacrifice your guaranteed liberties for what is being claimed as “safety”. These people that claim to be awake and know the agenda need to take another “Red Pill”. Many good people are starting to fall for this scheme that will only ensure control of both the food and the people for, all be it that they are doing so with good intentions, but are blindly leading the proverbial sheep to the slaughter in the name of safety. Because they are too blind too see the entire picture, they have began to divide the “cause”. Divide and conquer.
The United States of America is not a Democracy, this may surprise some of you, but remember the Pledge of Allegiance here.....”and to the Republic for which it stands”. Yes, we are a Republic like it or not. A Democracy is mob rule plain and simple, 51% can control 49% with no checks or balances. Our founders of this nation wanted something that would be fair and hence a Republic was born. A Republic protects all its citizens not just those that rule. For example the Revolutionary War against England was fought by 3% of the people, financially supported by 10%, and vocally supported by 20%. If your math is the same as mine that only gives us 33% of the people involved in forming this great bastion of freedom and liberty, the United States of America.
What about the other 67%? Makes you wonder doesn't it? In a Democracy we would still be under the control of the British Crown to this day. God Bless our founders for having the foresight to establish a Republic and protect everyone's rights even the 3% that sacrificed all so that we may have what their ancestors did not, were their effort's in vain? When you have Democracy you have tyranny of the masses.
In a Republic you have private property rights and you can do as you see fit with that property, if that property is food, then you can consume it as your right. Those who falsely believe that we live in a Democracy are leading us down a very dangerous and narrow path, they are trying to tell you what you can do with your private property.
No one should be pushed around and this is what is happening now that there is an outcry for safety and a to hell with liberty attitude growing among the self proclaimed elite of the raw milk movement.
Are they wolves in sheep's clothing? Perhaps, only time will tell.
Greed and control seem to be the personal agenda being shrouded by the illusion of safety. No matter how good men are “power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely”.
We have been led to believe that an out of control government can guide our future with the passage, and growing acceptance of, the “Food Safety Bill S510”. Do we now surrender our rights and march to the beat of a different drummer in this nation because we will ensure safety? Do we listen to those that continually tell us to OBEY? The masters always demand that the slaves obey and if you do not obey they threaten you with punishment or banishment.
Will those that become subject to these self imposed regulations be given any say as to how they will be policed. Do we blindly trust their integrity? Do they control the media and control the fate of their competition with innuendo's and threats? What they are doing, perhaps unwittingly is working to eliminate competition and gain a greater control of the market, perhaps even a monopoly. They will play on peoples emotion and claim that I can do things better and safer than what God had originally designed intelligently. Their competitors will be forced out of business with the aid of over-regulation.
Eventually this could very well lead to only having government approved food sources.
Henry Kissinger once said “that he who control's the food control's the people”, think about that for a minute. By surrendering the choice of your food to only “approved” sources you are treading dangerous waters. Now Mr. Kissinger was not very original in his statement either because it was Adolph Hitler that first used that phrase originally. Still want more control?
Being narrow minded and claiming that we need safety with no regard for liberty makes you actually part of the problem and not the solution. By surrendering your rights you have already played into the hands of the global elitist's agenda of controlling the food and ensuring a monopoly eventually. It may well destroy the small family farms of which you claim to be trying to save from demise. Now you may want to call names here and say that this is a conspiracy, well I now challenge you to prove me wrong with facts and not just rant that liberty loving people are “nutcases”.
Was food intended to be grown and consumed in sterile conditions? I do not think so, safety has been a tool of control and is now being used in the future to control the “Raw Milk” movement of these United States of America.
Let me close with one final thought from one of our founding fathers “They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.” Benjamin Franklin.
