#13  There is a reason the left hates the second amendment. Imagine if they tried to do this to a bunch of farmers in Texas.

#12  A deluge of lawsuits may be appropriate for this sort of bureaucratic madness. It sounds lame, but when the health dept. has to pay out many millions on 50 different lawsuits all stemming from one party, someone will take notice.

#11  As if being told you can't eat the food you grew and prepared wasn't enough, that you must destroy the food with bleach so it can't even be used for pig fodder or compost is the ultimate insult. The insanity has pegged the meter.

#10  It is long past time to start arming the guests and if the food nazis come to start trouble, invite them to leave with guns at the ready.

The only way this is going to stop is to make the nazis too afraid to enforce their unconstitutional laws.

#9  I wonder what corrupt government official (Harry Reid) they didn't pay off ahead of time. Such raids never have anything to do with a legitimate reason. Had they been in complete conformity with all regulations, the "inspector" would have found or imagined violations to the same end.

If it wasn't for bribery, then it was just harassment of political enemies, or even people who live in the territory of political enemies, that the villain wants to hurt indirectly.

This is what you get with a "gangster" government.

#8  they've been telling us what too eat for years, it just took a real dictator too get into office before it would be enforced.

#6  Big business rent-seeking, enabled by massive state over-regulation, created by bribed politicians.

Time to assemble heads on pikes.
