Oath Keepers has learned that federal agents recently visited a Later Day Saints (Mormon) Church food storage cannery in Tennessee, demanding customer lists, wanting to know the identity of Americans who are purchasing food storage from the Mormons.
This incident was confirmed, in person, by Oath Keepers Tennessee Chapter President, Rand Cardwell. Here is Rand’s report:
“A fellow veteran contacted me concerning a new and disturbing development. He had been utilizing a Mormon cannery near his home to purchase bulk food supplies. The man that manages the facility related to him that federal agents had visited the facility and demanded a list of individuals that had been purchasing bulk food. The manager informed the agents that the facility kept no such records and that all transactions were conducted on a cash-and-carry basis. The agents pressed for any record of personal checks, credit card transactions, etc., but the manager could provide no such record. The agents appeared to become very agitated and after several minutes of questioning finally left with no information. I contacted the manager and personally confirmed this information.

Clearly you haven’t been paying attention the aren’t worried about voters.
And yeah, I live on acreage with heavy woods and rive access, private well/septic, etc...
I don't see how that's relevant. Costco isn't required to keep a record of the names of everyone the sell to, and provide it to the IRS on damand. If you're buying from Costco for resale, it's your repsonsibility to do the paperwork and report it to the IRS. If you didn't do it, the IRS should be coming after you, not Costco.
When getting one of those member cards, they still work fine when you supply a fictitious name and address.
“What the @#$% does the federal gov’t want to know this for? The store should have copied the credentials of the agent before taking any questions.”
WHY INDEED?????
Anti-Hoarding Laws and Executive Orders
Congress has 30 days to object to an Executive Order (EO) before it becomes law. No objections were raised against these Command and Control emergency “Readiness Laws” when they were put in place. Has the emergency arrived that needs them and are they slowly being introduced?
Bill Clinton grouped together the following EOs under EO #12919 released on June 6, 1994. These are the tools used to shred the Constitution and take away your rights under its protection: Each EO number is linked to its full content:
10995 — Federal seizure of all communications media in the US (tested last month).
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 (including what you are storing for emergencies in your home right now).
10999 — Federal seizure of all means of transportation, including cars, trucks, or vehicles of any kind and total control over all highways, seaports and water ways.
11000 — Federal seizure of American people for work forces under federal supervision, including the splitting up of families if the government so desires (this happened before in Europe during the Nazi regime).
11001 — Federal seizure of all health, education and welfare facilities, both public and private.
11002 — Empowers the Postmaster General to register every single person in the US.
11003 — Federal seizure of all airports and aircraft.
11004 — Federal seizure of all housing and finances and authority to establish forced relocation. Authority to designate areas to be abandoned as “unsafe,” establish new locations for populations, relocate communities, build new housing with public funds.
11005 — Seizure of all railroads, inland waterways and storage facilities, both public and private.
11051 — Provides FEMA complete authorization to put above orders into effect in times of increased international tension of economic or financial crisis (FEMA will be in control in case of “National Emergency”).
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…The specifics on hoarding are left up to the individual states.
As to Mormons having a persecution complex, you dont think it's warranted? Look at the ridiculous bigotry on THIS website towards them - and the douches on this site profess to be the live and let live types. As for doomsday, not so much. The advice is to be prepared for hard times, not the EOW. ...and it's still 1 year.
Exactly my point. I don’t think one needs 6 months of food. In 6 days there will be plenty of food (for the survivors). Smart folks would be learning how to gain knowledge that will be invaluable when trying to survive... Knowledge is imperishable (to the point of memory anyway) and can’t be taken from you without your consent.
what is a “mormon cannery” vs a regular cannery?
does the author mean mormon owned? or is this some sort of anti-mormon thing?
Then they'd be looking for the people you sold to, not the people you bought it from. That you bought it proves nothing. They need proof you're selling it.
Confirmed report of an uncomfirmed report received from an unknown person at an unknown cannery involving an unknown manager and unknown federal agents in an unknown town or city.
=8-)
After reading about the FF investigation, that's about as definitive as it gets when dealing with a federal agency any more.
That they have to keep records doesn’t explain why they need to KEEP those records?
Do you if Sams Club regularly hands over copies of customer records without a reason (meaning without a warrant).
And even if it’s a tax issue, how is the names and addresses of every customer going to help determine the sale.
I have nothing else nice to say to you. I dont care for bigots and bullies.
***Because when the SHTF the Feds want to be able to go around and collect food from all the “hoarders”.***
My Brother-in-law’s parents ranch in Texas was raided in WWII because they had a supply of home canned food. The law took it all. They survived by having a second cellar hid out in the hills with enough to get them through till the next year.
Well, there ya go. A good lesson to be learned.
