Re: HR 875 The food police, criminalizing organic farming and the backyard gardener

If it were to pass, I wonder if it will have teeth? Once, on a huge scale, people with suitable gardens realise that it is time to grow the food they could not otherwise afford to eat.

It could be really dangerous. They could selectively enforce the the law to make an example of people. What happens to people while you're trying to fight this thing? What happens to your family if you are prosecuted? As a person who has been persecuted on a small scale by PTB,
they know you care how it effects your family and supporters and will make it very uncomfortable for you in legal ways you don't even think about. The best thing is for this not to pass. Maybe bringing this to the attention of your local state legislators would be helpful too. Since they may have contacts and influence we do not.
