You sure like to keep things stirred up don”t you?
How’s that?
That makes more sense, but having a judge sign off on it and having effectively a SWAT team lead it sounds really dumb.
I understand where you're coming from, but in this case, I don't blame the judge. The police claimed that at least one member had recently been arrested with marijuana on their person, it is multi-acre commune / farm, and the police had taken surveillance photos which showed rows of tomatillo plants in between high shrubs and weeds which I guess could have been interpreted as being marijuana plants.
The term “sustainability,” as pointed out here on this thread previously is used by both farmers/plant growers, AND those who are seeking to Control Everything.
“Sustainability” IS a buzzword for the UN plan to crowd the population into conclaves of rabbit hutches, and destroy private property rights.
Part of the plans on the drawing board of Agenda 21 is for the power elite/UN to control ALL means of growing food. The police action described here is part of the customizing of the yokels to the actions of the police in their program(s) to control.
No one can see inside my garden due to high brick walls, however our Texas county sheriff has a drone. Sure hope they know the difference between new tomato plants and sweet potatoes plants and a Sesame flower plant and a criminal plant. I don’t have criminal plants. They probably have never seen a Sesame flower plant - nice green leaves.
Agreed. Those who wish to rob all potential small competition often use the word, sustainable, dishonestly. My consideration is that we, who are more in touch with the physical world around us, should use the word more often and more appropriately. Those who want to own the world and relegate the rest of us to the slavery of buying only from them should also be ridiculed frequently. They speak in terms that are overly vague in their pretenses of being experts in technologies, while they have few technical skills and little technical knowledge. Efficient agriculture, for example, requires knowledge and practice in quite a few technologies that seem to most people to be unrelated.
You can’t fix stupid....police!
Very good points! I’m just learning how to do a little gardening. Never had the time for it before.... wow! There is so much to learn just to produce a few tomatoes and beans and squash!
I agree with the need for the use of ridicule as often as can be applied to the appropriate targets who are worthy of derision.
Not only have I never had one, I've never even heard of them. I'm kinda partial to the ones we grow here on the Eastern Shore :-)
I'm with PTC on this one. I'm not a big tomato fan, but Hanover does grow some mighty fine tasting fruit. It may not be better than the Eastern Shore variety, but it will most certainly not be worse.
Ya know what was particularly twisted about this story?
The piles of fecal matter they found on property in different places ... it’s noted on the Code Enforcement inventory sheet available linked off this website:
Oh - and it was noted the smell and amount of flies present as well ...
And from the story: “Among those items were 24 tires which were pooling stagnant water, piles of rotting vegetables and meat, and mounds of debris.”
Did you know we are battling West Nile virus down here?
Cities are still spraying and people are still being infected, the transmission vector being mosquitoes!
The property owner ignored repeated, I say repeated, cites and violation warnings from the city of Arlington for the last TWO years, and the administrative hearing requested by Shellie Smith (the property owner) earlier this year was *not* attended by Shellie on purpose.
The topper? Look for yourself at the property from above using Google earth:
Then go to streetview ... place looks like, well, a dump.
There is; check above.
