A Wisconsin judge has decided – in a fight over families' access to milk from cows they own – that Americans "do not have a fundamental right to consume the milk from their own cow."
The ruling comes from Circuit Court Judge Patrick J. Fiedler in a court fight involving a number of families who owned their own cows, but boarded them on a single farm.
The judge said that's a "dairy farm" and is subject to the rules and regulations of the state of Wisconsin.
"It's always a surprise when a judge says you don't have the fundamental right to consume the foods of your choice," said Pete Kennedy, president of the Farm-to-Consumer Legal Defense Fund, which worked on the case on behalf of the farmers and the owners of the milk-producing cows.

who the hell are these people? and how do they get elected and/or appointed? this judge needs to be run out of town on a rail
This nation is being stolen from the vision of the Founding Fathers, from current and future generations of citizens, by a corrupt political and judiciary class, abetted by a dishonest media and academia.
Let me see if I understand this whole “choice” thing... a woman can choose to kill her baby but she can’t choose to drink milk from her own cow?! Okay... I get it now. /s
Evidently, this turd has never read the Constitution of The United States.
Perhaps this individual needs to learn first hand what Thomas Jefferson was talking about when he said: “God forbid we should ever be twenty years without such a rebellion. The people cannot be all, and always, well informed. The part which is wrong will be discontented, in proportion to the importance of the facts they misconceive. If they remain quiet under such misconceptions, it is lethargy, the forerunner of death to the public liberty.... And what country can preserve its liberties, if its rulers are not warned from time to time, that this people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to the facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time, with the blood of patriots and tyrants. It is its natural manure.”
We are coming to the point where we need to reassert our primacy over the government.
Just another black robed terrorists. It’s time these “judges” wear the title they so richly deserve. http://www.blackrobedterrorists.com
This is a hill I would be willing to die/kill on.
These judges and their infinite wisdom, these unions and their infinite wisdom, these occupy protestors and their lack of wisdom are going to bring this country to the brink. They are going to get the revolution they are calling for, unfortuinately I b elieve it is not going to be a bloodless revolution, it is going to make the Civil War look civil.
I feel for our children. If this happens we are going to be looked back at as the worst generation the world has known. Unbelievable what these liberals have done/ are doing.
This doesn’t surprise me in the least.
From an article on madison.com: "County judge Patrick Fiedler to step down after almost 18 years
Sounds like he's doing a pretty good job of advocating right where he is.
Considering that most people have birth certs and social security numbers does make you a slave of the state capitols and the District of Criminals.
This takes us right back to FDR,where they didn’t let farmers grow their own food without regulation and forced people to buy the next available chicken at the butcher shop. Americans had to fight back with votes then, and we will have to do so now.
Bill of Rights:
Amendment IX
The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.
Amendment X
The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.
The judge is so very, very wrong.............
He may be right—I may be crazy —But it just might be a lunatic you’re lookin’ for” As the old hippy lust song put it. If the Judge is right then it seems right Americans do have a Constitutional right to IMPEACH. We also have a fundamental right to resist tyranny -for to do so is obedience to God.As Franklin so appropriated from other Patriots.
....to the nearest tall tree.........
It was once said about Germany “That which is not permitted is forbidden,” and about the United States, “That which is not forbidden is permitted.” No longer.
The presumption of many judges in regulatory matters is one of presumed guilt, not innocence. There are so many rules now, that you must be breaking one if you don’t have positive permission for whatever it is you are doing. This judge exemplifies that attitude. He assumes that you can’t do something because there is no enumerated right allowing you to, rather than taking the Founder’s position that the government’s powers were to be few and enumerated.
