Get ready to fight! The Big Dairy Lobby is coming full force to twist Congress' arm to outlaw raw milk. It is already a difficult proposition now to secure a supply of raw milk for yourself and family. The campaign for raw milk has grown by leaps and bounds over the past few years. While our efforts may seem meager, Big Dairy sees the writing on the wall - and they ain't pleased. Here's the deal. Big Dairy is founded on the abuse of dairy cows and dairy farmers! The cows are confined for life in what for all intents and purposes is a penitentiary for cows, standing all day and night on concrete slabs in tiny stalls (cells) with no room to move around, up to their knees in manure! Those cows die an early miserable death after a tortuous miserable life. Under such conditions you can easily see why drugs like steroids, antibiotics, growth hormone, etc are 'necessary' and why pasteurization is also 'necessary'. Contrast that to the life of a cow on a raw milk farm: in a grass pasture eating grass and herbs, fresh air, sunshine, freedom to move at will, the chance to settle down and grab an afternoon nap, the natural mating and birthing of calves, and dairy farmers who love cows and know each one by name! The confined cows are constantly sick and in pain and die at 15 to 18 months of age. The pastured cows are happy and contented and live 15 to 18 years! The milk from the pasture fed cows is clean and pure and does not need to be pasteurized for safety. It is already the safest thing on the planet. The so-called 'milk' from the industrialized cows is not fit to drink, even if it is pasteurized, homogenized and fortified. It really isn't good enough to bear the high name: MILK!
When you as a consumer, participate in a raw milk program, not only are you doing the very best thing for the health of yourself and family, you are also part of a liberation movement for the liberation of cows and dairy farmers who are right now enslaved and on the brink of extinction due to the evil business model employed by Big Dairy. When we deal directly with the dairy farmer and buy his milk raw, we cut out the wicked middle man who only pays the lowest possible price for the farmer's milk - sometimes the price is below cost, causing bankruptcy and hardship. When we create an increased demand for raw milk and raw milk products we are offering the dairy farmer an alternative to the slavish exploitation of Big Dairy. Well, wouldn't you know it, Big Dairy don't like what we are doing and means to put a stop to it by making Congress outlaw raw milk everywhere. So let us do all in our power assert our right to the highest quality food which is raw milk, as well as the right of dairy farmers to make a decent living, and the right of dairy cows to enjoy a happy healthy life.
We must be their protectors against those whose only wish is to exploit and degrade them.

Behind the push for pasteurization
If you love your milk so fresh you can still hear the moo, watch out: Big Dairy is coming after you – again.
Two lobbying groups backed by untold piles of dirty dairy dollars are urging lawmakers to put raw milk out to pasture, calling it a "significant food safety hazard."
But as long as we're talking farm, let's call that what it really is: hogwash (yeah, another farm word came to mind first... but I try to keep this family-friendly).
The International Dairy Foods Association and the National Milk Producers Federation want all unpasteurized products to follow the same standards as other milk products – in other words, they want everything pasteurized.
But the problem with raw milk isn't that it's dangerous – because it isn't. I've been drinking this stuff for years, and I'm just one member of a small-but-devoted army of raw-milk lovers. And believe me, we're healthier than most people.
No, the problem is that it's harder for Big Dairy to turn a profit on raw milk, and harder to tax.
Think about it – legal raw milk would mean small farmers everywhere could sell it at market price direct to consumers from roadside stands... the way many of them now sell peach pies.
Big Dairy wouldn't earn a dime off that. And Uncle Sam gets nervous because it would be difficult to keep tabs on all these small operations at tax time.
So instead, farmers are essentially forced to sell their milk to Big Dairy for a fraction of its value.
But the dairy barons can't ever tell you that... so they pretend it's about safety instead.
I'll say it again: Hogwash!
Pasteurization sucks many of the nutrients out of the milk, including vitamins C, B6 and B12. It even sucks the calcium out – any calcium you find in store-bought milk is usually added during fortification.
All that, and it's still not guaranteed to be perfectly safe. People still get sick and even die from bacteria in pasteurized milk – bacteria that, in theory, shouldn't be there.
One study found that between 1982 and 1997, 220,000 people were sickened by salmonella in pasteurized milk. During that same period, not a single person reported getting sick from raw milk.
Raw milk should be celebrated... instead, we're forced to hide and sneak and find creative ways around laws designed to stop us from getting our milk... like buying shares in cows the same way some people buy partial ownership of vacation homes.
If you're interested in all the benefits of raw milk, visit a local dairy farmer and see what he can do for you.
Not only does the real stuff taste far better than that milk-colored store-bought junk, but it contains more essential nutrients like calcium, vitamin D and a natural antibiotic called lactoferrin. Raw milk drinkers will tell you the benefits include weight loss, better immunity from colds and even pain relief.
One warning: Drinking raw milk means you may be treated like an outlaw... when all you really want is a chance to do your body good.

You are absolutely right…GET READY TO FIGHT! We cannot sit by a let a bunch of no good demons continue to destroy Allah’s creation. They act as if they own the Planet, yet we are taught who the real owners are — the Original People, Who is Allah.
In the Original Rules of Instruction to the Laborers of Islam by Our Saviour, W. D. Fard Muhammad, He states:
“…The Righteous Nation is, now, Living in every part of the planet Earth. Therefore the enemy must, now, be removed in every part of the planet Earth…”
This statement, combined with the words of the Honorable Elijah Muhammad — “that He would not rest until the Holy Quran is the Law of the Land,” clearly gives us our “marching orders.” This is also why the meaning of F.O.I. is: "The name of the military Training...
The U.S. Congress is nothing more than a gang of devils who believe that, with the flick of a so-called law, they can continue to terrorize us. They are the enemy of Allah, and their ways have proved this.
I am with you, Dr. Alim, in continuing to mobilize, organized and to fight against those who hate Allah, His Creation, and all Life on this planet. They have abused and terrorized every creature on Earth— from the smallest bug, to the largest whale.
This means that every creature is cheering us on to kick these demons off the face of the Earth.
This is the Time of War and I wholeheartedly embrace it, with joy!
Just pointing out that not everyone who believes in good food and raw milk are with you 100% on this, Kevin. There are people of all nations and religious beliefs who understand this fight for food freedom of choice.
