He was shot by them at least twice - in his home --- for polluting
This man sustained a life altering injury, while assaulted in his home, because he ALLEGEDLY pointed a rifle at the EPA Thugs who surrounded his house before even knocking
I don't believe either is an "assault" rifle unless he has some fully automatic version and that is somewhat doubtful or they would have charged him
This guy ran a truck wash in Colorado and some tree hugger objected to what washed down the sewer ...
The EPA should be proud
I wonder how he thinks that Hope-ie Change-ie thingy is working out for him??
Meanwhile the school superintendent and his wife have stolen at least $500K from the school and the mentaly handcapped and they are out without bail
Ckick Here:
He was wielding a flamethrower.
y'see.
All the laws in the world wouldn’t have kept that guy from getting a firearm.
He’s only the first. There will be more! Do you know why he has a felony conviction?
Geez.. Gov’t run amuck written all over this story...I wonder if they will be comming after me for wasting electricity because I refuse stupid Curly Q (Mercury filled)light bulbs.....Or the “Crime” of using Plastic Bags....
With Obama and his lefty power grabbing friends in charge it’s scary that these things at least seem possible. We shouldn’t be afraid of our Gov’t it should be afraid of us.....
As Rush would say things are 180 degrees out of phase...
It says he “illegally discharged illegal acidic waste into the sewer system”. Fed-speak for pouring out old vinegar?
Law enforcement at its finest.
MY GOD! Now the EPA cops are killing people.
Hold on, I gotta tell my wife something...”hey honey, tell your brother to bring his pickup over so we can move and hide the 3 gallon commode.”
Sorry about that, gotta start getting rid of EPA evidence around here or they will be breaking down our front door looking for chemicals under our cabinet and unauthorized commodes.
His business name was "Chemical Consultants." Sound like a little more than a simple truck wash.
Behind every law stands and armed policeman with real bullets in the gun on his hip. If a person resists he risks imprisonment. If he resists with enough force the police will **kill** him.
This is what laws are. This is why we should be very careful about enacting them.
I bet most people didnt realize that the EPA had become militarized under KKKlinton.
and would it matter what kind of gun somone pointed at you?
and what do you mean by "surrounded his house before even knocking"? that doesn't make any sense. you are simply using inflammatory language.
I don't think he has a sympathetic judge.
Chemical Consultants, Inc. was a company that mixes and sells chemical products for use in various industries and was a large quantity generator of hazardous waste. Chemical Consultants, Inc. is alleged to have dumped, without a permit, hazardous waste on to a gravel-covered portion of property leased to his business in 2003 and 2005.
He is also alleged to have dumped chemical wastes into the sanitary sewer in 2004 and 2005 which caused a total of 22 pass-through events at the South Davis Sewer District in Davis County, Utah.
It is alleged that he disposed of waste from sulfuric acids, hydrofluoric and hydrochloric acids that he used to produce products his company sold.
Baggett was arrested on the above charges on September 20, 2007, by federal EPA-CID special agents and the Utah Attorney Generals Office agents.
He was subsequently released from federal custody with conditions pending his trial.
On April 22, 2008, a federal arrest warrant was issued for Baggett for violating the conditions of his release pending his trial.
His trial was scheduled to begin on June 2, 2008. Baggett was taken into Federal custody on March 13, 2009 in Florida.
On April 16 2009, Baggett was charged by a federal Grand Jury in Miami with assaulting law enforcement officers and illegally possessing eight firearms while he was a fugitive from the District of Utah on an environmental crimes prosecution.
Okay, at first, I thought that said “pollster”, and although it’s a noble gesture, of course, I was wondering why EPA enforcement agents would need to do it.
And yet my water utility, every time it rains hard (you know we now get about 5-6 ‘100 year’ storms each year) they dump hundreds of millions of gallons of sewage into the lake - never a peep from the media or the EPA because it’s government doing the dumping.
They went apopleptic here when one contractor guy was filmed pushing a piece of concrete into a river here (he was told to do it by his company, and the place along the river is LINED with concrete). Never hear anything negative from the MSM about the gargantuan sewer dumps the local govt does all the time. In fact one of the sewer overflows is within a few blocks of where the piece of concrete was pushed in.
He took a dump?
Baggett was wanted on an EPA warrant for not appearing in court in 2008 on charges of illegally treating and disposing of hazardous waste in Salt Lake City, and illegally discharging acidic chemical waste into the sewer system.
What? He used a urinal and that is his crime?
So what was he doing that was so bad? Grilling burgers? The article doesn’t even say.
I knew OB would appoint Michael Moore to be a judge.
EPA officials can carry weapons? They have the power to arrest? Scary, just wait until cap and trade passes and is signed into law.
