Armed Police Raid Private Organic Co-Op Rawesome Foods, Security Camera Footage

By P.J. Huffstutter, Los Angeles Times
With no warning one weekday morning, investigators entered an organic grocery with a search warrant and ordered the hemp-clad workers to put down their buckets of mashed coconut cream and to step away from the nuts.

Then, guns drawn, four officers fanned out across Rawesome Foods in Venice. Skirting past the arugula and peering under crates of zucchini, they found the raid's target inside a walk-in refrigerator: unmarked jugs of raw milk.

"This is about control and profit, not our health," said Aajonus Vonderplanitz, co-founder of Rawesome Foods. "How can we not have the freedom to choose what we eat?"

So what's next?  Will the food police start going after the raw foods restaurants that have popped up all over LA?  Venice was once a mecca for food co-ops.  The idea was to buy in bulk and get the products you wanted at a discount.  The beginning of the end in LA was when Mrs. Gooch sold out to Whole Foods in 1993.  Everything that was predicted at the time about natural foods markets has happened.

This is horrible yet just the beginning towards the end, If people can leave this country do it now before its too late!  This nation is run buy Criminals Thieves Lairs and Murderers - unless your willing to fight for your freedom and Wake the sleeping masses up - we are doomed.  There are evil people in the government, DHS, CPS, Police .... wow the list goes on and they will not be immune to whats taking place!

Our only (in my thoughts) hope we have as People of this country is to do whats right and believe in some form of Savior - our time is short and the ones doing this to us will at some time in their begin come to an end as well.  Only time will tell what hardships and devastation will fall upon this nation.

cops are out of control. they can arrest you for what you put in your body.  if you smoke cannabis they can take what you have,no problem. if you eat healthy they can arrest you.  the only repercussions I welcome is lack of funding for police nazi agencies. but they will probably tank the budget to keep attacking americans. no freedom in america anymore unless people wake up and see whats going on. americans are so busy texting they dont realize our bill of rights is being erased.  we are going the way of nazi germany and cuba.

Guns drawn on health food nuts, huh? That makes sense.

Wow, this is the ugly face of fascism. America, the land of the free and brave, is history. How many millions have died from the drugs of Big Pharma and the genetically engineered foods of Monsanto? That's not important to our beloved "leaders."

Charged with "conspiracy"? WTF is that all about? " It's a conspiracy to choose a healthy life style? What, is healthy food a weapon of mass destruction now? It's all so backwards, upside down and ridiculous. "This is about control and profit, not our health," said Aajonus Vonderplanitz, co-founder of Rawesome Foods. "How can we not have the freedom to choose what we eat?" He summed it all up in a nutshell.
