Follow-Up Message From Michael
May 17, 2008
Dear Friends and Cow Share Members:

Our Cow rally in Toronto this coming Tuesday, May 20th is cancelled due to the sudden turn of events that has resulted in the trial being postponed until later in the year. Please, please, contact as many people as possible so that nobody travels to Newmarket and then finds out there is no trial.

Please also look at the front page article of Saturday, May 17th Toronto Star and start writing letters to confront the expert witnesses regarding the safety of Raw Milk. It is important to respond. Do it with passion and with facts. We still live in a world where university scientists seem to have the last word as authorities in the field of food safety and health. This needs to be dealt with. We need to take on the establishment; we need to confront them wherever we go, whenever we hear those spreading intentionally wrong facts. We will not back down. This battle for individual rights, for individual freedoms and against the abuse of power of so-called experts, politicians and bureaucrats will become increasingly defining in the years ahead of us. It is paramount to recognize the power that will allow change to happen. We are not powerless. It is the principle of the issue that is so paramount.

Let me close again by expressing my utmost respect and thanks to those who are now working on a fair and due process, worthy of a society wherein the principle of individual freedom and responsibility is treasured and respected.

Michael Schmidt

I believe that we should make a very clear distinction between someone who spreads misinformation, i.e. provides incorrect information, unknowingly and someone who does so knowingly (perhaps for money). 'Intentionally wrong facts' are NOT facts but *LIES* and those who spread them are known as *LIARS*. Governments and their agents (politicians, controlled media...) are well known and have a long history for doing such things and on massive scale too. Saddam Hussein's 'Weapons Of Mass Destruction', which were never found but used as a pretext for war, come to mind. On a smaller scale they send their agents to buy good clean raw milk from you and then wait for days before submitting it for testing just to entrap you, fabricate a pretext to (armed) raid your farm, steal your equipment, charge you criminally and drag you into court where you're bound to lose thousands if not millions of dollars, not to mention time that could have been otherwise used productively or for family, wrecked nerves, etc.

You Mr. Schmidt and people like you, farmers that is, are in a very unique situation. You are the backbone of civilization. You have the power to bring about change *for the better*. Those who print money have power. You, farmers in general, must start printing your own *usury free* currency and start introducing it into circulation. You can start by accepting, say, 10% of the value of the exchange in local currency and 90% standard cash. Those who choose to use local currency will of course also have to honour the value that it represents and yes it is surprisingly that easy, I've done it. Some people may be willing to accept even 50% or more of the value of the exchange in local currency. What this does is effectively take away the money that we're forced to pay through income taxes (which are unlawful in the first place but that's another story) to the government which they can then use to persecute people like you. How many Canadians do you think would willingly give their money to the government so they can hire lawyers to prosecute you in courts, or hire agents to pose as your supporters to buy milk from you so they can let it go bad before sending it for testing? I wouldn't give them half a broken cent if I had the choice.

Michael,

I am soo glad to hear that you are doing what is right in this world. I would love to drink some more of your delicious MILK again. We used to drink this growing up in Hungary all the time, it is so delicious and healthy for us. I am back from Hugary and now living in Canada once again. Can you please keep me informed of the progress of your altercations with our friends within the city.

Keep up the good work.
