Dear Friends
The work continues. At the farm every morning we fulfill our obligations towards the cows, horses, pigs, and chickens. Now our field work has started and with excitement we are getting ready to plant grain.
Many people are wondering how we are keeping up with the present situation of law-enforcement and hostility from Government towards our work that we do. You need to know that we always have been ready for another threat, another raid or harassment. Law enforcement that enforces unjust laws can only go so far until it falters under its own hypocrisy. Any attempt to repeat another show of force will only wake up and activate more and more people.
It is wonderful to know how many already are prepared to defend their basic rights, to defend the Blue Bus on its weekly run and to defend the farm. As I said after the initial raid in November, the Government had all my cooperation to gather all the needed facts in order to bring their case to the courts. Now it is up to the courts to decide. Whatever enforcement actions will take place will not have any cooperation from our side. We will stand up and rise to the challenge . There will be no aggression, there will be no hatred, there will be no cooperation, but there will always be compassion for those who JUST DO THEIR JOB.
Let’s be clear, the state of the world appears grim. One reason for that is that we, as common citizens, are so complacent,so security-oriented, so fearful. Uniforms seem to be so impressive. They are not; they all contain human beings who have the capacity to learn. The state of the world is as grim as it is because we let injustice happen. We are the ones becoming guilty because we let things happen.
So, my friends, every morning we can start with new courage as the sun rises in the east, even when the sky is cloudy. Let’s celebrate the human courage and the caring soul in each and everybody. We will succeed.
I am soooo glad that the other side, as it struggles with us, is able to learn as much as we are. They must have found so many positive arguments for milk that now the only reason for them to confiscate our nutritious raw milk is so that they finally can get a hand on it and drink it themselves (since we have no room for any more new shareholders).
We are well on our way. Cheers to all of you
Regards, Michael
