A DOUBLE BLOW TO THE MORMONS: SHUTDOWN OF LDS CANNERIES AND FREEDOM OF RELIGION, TOO!
BREAKING NEWS: LDS CANNERIES TO HALT CANNING!
By
Kellene Bishop
June 27th Deadline for Canning at LDS Canneries West of the Mississippi
As
is supported by the announcement to
the left in part, LDS Canneries will
no longer be canning any food at their
facilities beginning June 27th,
2013. Insiders who are closely
involved with these actions tell me
that this will encompass “west of the
Mississippi” and that the reason for
such a startling action is because
they are no longer able to justify the
abhorrent costs to keep in compliance
with the ever-changing criteria set
forth by the U.S. Department of
Agriculture and the Food and Drug
Administration.
Keep
in mind that the LDS Church
Corporation is no pauper nor have they
shown anything but an admirable
determination to continue running
these facilities over the years. They
stand as a beacon of self-sufficiency
in every sense of the word as they are
run debt free and strictly by
volunteers. There’s hardly a home of
an LDS Member in existence that
doesn’t possess at least a couple of
their trademarked, understated brand
of cans from the cannery and there are
millions of non LDS persons who have
discovered the food that can be
purchased from these centers as one of
the best kept secrets to successful
family budgeting. They are NOT backing
down because of a small speed bump.
No, this decision would ONLY come as a
result of some pretty significant
obstacles.
What’s
a cannery that doesn’t can anything?
Well, apparently it’s just a center
now in which people will be able to
check out the #10 canners for a few
days at a time and can dry goods in
their own home now or they’ll be able
to purchase pre-packaged goods that
will be canned in the more robust
facilities in the Western States which
will no doubt bear the burden of the
cost to be shipped now to the Eastern
states. However, several interviews
made it clear to me that there’s an
active intent by these government
entities to shut down ALL LDS
Canneries ALL over the U.S. including
the ability to purchase foods in bulk
and that there’s a targeted time table
by the government entities to have
this accomplished at the end of the
next two years. We’ll just have to see
who wins that little challenge.
I’m
greatly disturbed by this recent
change of events, not only because I
have personally volunteered at several
of the affected facilities, but I
personally know literally hundreds of
readers who will also be impacted by
this change. I’ve been able to confirm
this week that this policy has been
put in place at a handful of other LDS
Canneries in other areas of the
country including Missouri, and
Washington.
Adding
more fodder to this mess is the recent
uptick in the government agencies
harassing the LDS Church owned
orchards in various parts of the U.S.
Here’s one letter I received by one of
the members of the LDS Church who
showed up to volunteer on a church run
orchard in Idaho. (As always—name
withheld)
“We
are blessed to live close to the LDS
church orchards and get the
opportunity to work there every year
to prune, thin, and harvest peaches,
pears, plums, cherries, apricots,
apples, etc. It is such a blessing
to people who live here and for the
members of the church who provide
labor which ultimately feeds
thousands of people worldwide.
However,
the feds have upped their regulations
this year and are requiring every
volunteer to be (specially government)
trained. They have made it clear that
we could be audited, and the
volunteers could be asked by Gov’t
officials on-site (at any time) if
they have been ‘trained’. If we are
not in compliance, the orchard could
be shut down. So after Sacrament
meeting today they had a Stake member
come and pass out a ‘training’ sheet
and gave adults a card that people are
supposed to sign and take with them
out to the orchard when we work to
show that we have been trained. The
wards now have to have an orchard
coordinator that will be on site to
‘train’ those people who fall through
the cracks and missed the training.
(Editor note: Remember—these are ALL
volunteers who make this all
possible.)
The
training includes on-site cleanliness
(washing hands, etc. and using the
toilet facilities that the church has
always provided (us) before ‘they’
said anything); another item was that
if fruit touches the ground we are to
not put it in the bins; we can’t use
it for use at the cannery. However,
that fruit is good enough for me to
pick up and take home to eat, hmmmm.
Moving on….
Another
item–That children are watched
carefully so they don’t pick fruit
with unclean hands, (seems to me
that the canning process would kill
any bacteria that a child or adult
might have on their hands); that
each volunteer record their hours,
and that we provide proof of
training to any official who may
want to see it on demand.
Now
this is just another effort to make us
more dependent on ‘Them’. I was livid
during this meeting as I realized what
was happening and what ‘They’ are
trying to accomplish. This is a sign
of it trickling down to the people of
our country and many don’t see the
tentacles reaching out to grab and
control them. Too many people are
complacent and don’t realize what this
means for the future of our food
production.
The
cannery in Boise has had to quit
canning meats because ‘They’ passed
more regulations that the Church
wasn’t willing to abide by. So rather
than jump through more hoops the
church decided they would no longer
can meats. I guess it is good that I
already can meat and also teach others
to do so. I wonder what other
‘regulations’ they will pass to try
and shut the cannery down.
I
live in Idaho, and the stakes from
(redacted) westward do orchard work
and the Stakes in (redacted) do
cannery work. We have loved doing work
in the orchards and have enjoyed
having our children help. But I guess
we have to be extra vigilant and be in
compliance, so we will be making sure
our children don’t contaminate the
whole orchard by picking up a piece of
fruit off the ground and eating it on
site. This is an item that ‘they’ insist on
compliance. Absolutely NO picking of
fruit and eating it while in the
orchard. HA! How have we survived this
long without Government regulations??”
(italics added)
(italics added)
When
you consider this bit of news with the
incident that was reported last year
in which an LDS Cannery received a
surprise visit from the FBI
who reportedly demanded to see a
list of their patrons
—things start coming into focus. I
also can’t help but think of the
increase numbers of regular, everyday home
gardeners that are being harassed
by the police just because t...
No, I’m not talking about some crazy
story in some other country; I’m
talking about what’s going on right
here in the U.S.A.
I’d
say that we’ve all had ample indications
that it’s time to wake up and get
prepared. You’ve already lost one more
valuable outlet with this latest
maneuver. You’re likely to find that
your bank account has been emptied
overnight by the powers that be like it
was for many in Cyprus and Canada
recently. You’re likely to find that
it’s impossible to purchase non-gmo
seeds any longer to grow, or that your
water supply will be drastically
reduced. Who knows what will happen
exactly, but no one can sit there and
feign ignorance or plead that they never
had any warning. This, my friends, is a
warning to us all.
Note:
I do not think the majority of Americans
realize the depth and extent the USDA has
in the new laws in regulating and
restricting food now. Even the best
"Prepper's
will eventually have to rely on the government for their food or seed or some aspect of their ability to feed themselves and others. I consider this as a legal way to control US. What say you?
will eventually have to rely on the government for their food or seed or some aspect of their ability to feed themselves and others. I consider this as a legal way to control US. What say you?
WHAT SAY I? GIVE ME AN HOUR OF YOUR TIME.
WHAT SAY I? I AM FURIOUS AT THIS ONSLAUGHT AGAINST THE DIGNITY OF A WAY OF LIFE AND RELIGION? ON WHAT WILL COME THE NEXT ATTACK. MY LITTLE ONE HAD AN ANGELIC MORMON BABYSITTER. SHE WAS A PREPPER - WE LIVED IN EARTHQUAKE COUNTRY. SHE HAD ENOUGH FOOD AND WATER FOR HERSELF, HER DAUGHTER, AND THE FAMILIES OF THE CHILDREN ENTRUSTED TO HER LOVING CARE. THIS IS JUST ANOTHER OBAMA ASSAULT ON THE CONSTITUTION AND TO THE CITIZENS OF THE USA. I SUGGEST YOU GIVE YOUR FULL SUPPORT TO THE MORMONS IN EVERY WAY YOU CAN; BY DENOUNCING THIS, BY CALLING/EMAILING AND BEING OBNOXIOUS TO YOUR ELECTED GANGSTERS. WE NEED TO STOP THIS MALIGNANT MACHINE THAT HAS COME TO RESIDE IN THE WHITE HOUSE.

OBAMA'S SHARIAH-INSPIRED WAR ON THE FIRST AMENDMENT - CLIFF KINCAID/PAM GELLER
Dear Friend of America's Survival, Inc.:
Pamela Geller has an important column at World Net Daily: OBAMA'S SHARIAH-INSPIRED WAR ON 1ST AMENDMENT
This issue is far more important that what Romney said months ago about the 47 percent. It is far more important than what Obama said years ago about redistribution of income. We know Obama is a Marxist. What's new?
What's new is that our First Amendment rights are under attack. Obama has sold us out and Romney isn't saying a word. He must speak out.
Geller writes that "...the riots have everything to do with America and U.S. policy. They are about freedom of conscience and freedom of speech: they're an attempt to get the U.S. to shut down free speech and criminalize criticism of Islam, in accord with Shariah blasphemy laws. And the Obama administration is responding by putting a huge target on the head of the First Amendment (and on that of every U.S. citizen who exercises that constitutional right). This is a constitutional coup."
This is what we should be talking about. This is what Romney should be talking about.
The latest "incident" is that a satirical Parisian weekly called Charlie Hedbo has published what the media call "crude caricatures" of the Prophet Muhammad. Once again, the Islamic fanatics have their underware in a twist. This magazine had its offices firebombed last year after it published an edition entitled "Sharia Hebdo" and described it as "guest edited" by the Prophet Mohammed.
Today, its offices are surrounded by police, fearful of more violence against the publication.
The AP says there is a "debate about the limits of free expression" that is underway around the world.
That is what the Islamists want. I say to hell with the Islamists. We must stand up for freedom of speech.
Here is the "offensive" cover:
Can you believe violence is being threatened over THAT? The headline
is, "You mustn't mock," a barb at the Islamic thought police. Muhammad
is the old man in the wheel chair.
Can you believe they call it a "religion of peace?"
Do we have the freedom to criticize this violence-prone religion? Our rights are hanging in the balance.

HOW BIG A DEAL IS HR 347 - CRIMINALIZING PROTEST BILL
https://www.aclu.org/blog/free-speech/how-big-deal-hr-347-criminalizing-protest-bill
This is a real piercing of the First Amendment. It endangers us all.
This is a real piercing of the First Amendment. It endangers us all.

This coming week, Congress is set to take up another so-called "cybersecurity" bill, H.R. 3523, the "Cyber Intelligence Sharing and Protection Act of 2011" (CISPA).
And this time, many of those who joined us to stop SOPA and PIPA are supporting this legislation.
So only the immediate action of you and your fellow C4L members can help protect our privacy from the government's ever-expanding reach.
After our victory over SOPA/PIPA, I wrote to you in late February about the need to stay vigilant against Congress' attempts to assert more control over the Internet.
Well, since then, Republicans and Democrats have introduced at least four major "cybersecurity" bills.
Expanding government power is always bipartisan.
CISPA, sponsored by Rep. Mike Rogers (MI-8), is promoted as a harmless bill that will enable voluntary "information sharing" between private corporations and government agencies in the name of "cybersecurity."
Unfortunately, it would allow the transfer of vast amounts of data, including information like your Internet browsing history or email content, to any agency in the federal government, including non-civilian agencies such as the National Security Agency or the Department of Defense Cyber Command.
One major problem with these alleged "cybersecurity" bills is their overly broad focus on what information private companies are encouraged to share with federal agencies.
CISPA currently contains no incentive for private companies like Facebook or Google to remove personally identifiable information from data they share.
In addition, the way this legislation is drafted, it currently overrides privacy presumptions found in the Electronic Communications Privacy Act, the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, and the Communications Act regarding the privacy of an individual's online communications and related records.
Essentially, CISPA would deem all existing privacy laws null and void for "cybersecurity" purposes.
Once the government has this information, there are no meaningful restrictions on its use, as its only qualifier is that it must be related to "cybersecurity" or to protect "national security."
As C4L members know too well, "national security" has become a catch-all excuse for government powergrabs since 9/11.
Finally, while the bill includes a requirement for the Director of National Intelligence's Inspector General to issue annual reports on how the government is using the information shared under the bill, such reports would only be provided to congressional intelligence committees.
These reports would not constitute meaningful restrictions or do anything to dissuade the misuse of personal information shared under CISPA.
As I hinted at earlier, unlike the January 18 "Internet blackout" over SOPA and PIPA, this time Internet giants like Facebook and Twitter are openly supporting CISPA, along with powerful special interest groups like the US Chamber of Commerce.
In other words, don't expect the cavalry to back us up on this one.
And House Leadership is currently engaged in a full-court press effort to get your representative to support H.R. 3523.
Sources on the Hill have informed us of "members only" meetings, where representatives are being encouraged to vote for CISPA as a "national security" issue addressing a "credible" "cybersecurity threat."
I'm sure it's only a coincidence that this briefing comes conveniently just ahead of when the establishment wants to ram something through.
In the face of such longshot odds, without your immediate action, I can't promise that we have even the slightest chance of beating back this egregious invasion of your privacy.
But, I've seen the power the liberty movement can have when it speaks out with a unified voice.
And you better believe members of Congress have taken notice, too.
That’s why I hope you’ll contact Congress right away.
Click here to find your representative’s information.
And after you’ve contacted Congress, please forward this email to at least five friends or family members encouraging them to do the same.
Finally, your chip-in contribution of at least $10 or $25 will help Campaign for Liberty mobilize as many Americans as possible to take action on critical issues like CISPA and other so-called "cybersecurity" bills that would strip more privacy away from Americans.
This fight won't have the glamour or media attention that SOPA and PIPA received, so please take action immediately and show Congress the liberty movement is serious about defending our constitutionally protected rights no matter the odds.
In Liberty,
Matt Hawes
Vice President
P.S. Internet giants like Facebook and Twitter are openly supporting H.R. 3523, the "Cyber Intelligence Sharing and Protection Act of 2011" (CISPA) - the latest plan from Congress to further infringe on Americans' privacy.
It’s up to the liberty movement to take action and stop CISPA in its tracks! Please contact your representative immediately and demand a "NO" vote on H.R. 3523 and any similar legislation!
