Read this article... I was appalled.?

Question

http://www.nydailynews.com/ny_local/brooklyn/2008/05/01/2008-05-01_raw_milk_lovers_upset_over_amish_arrest.html

Why our government is worrying about things like this, things that are a personal decision, is beyond me. Yes, it can be dangerous... but if people want to place themselves in danger then I believe in this case, it's their choice.

I was just wondering what others thought about this issue.

Answer 1

OKAY...  So basically you are going to arrest someone for selling a product that people enjoy...  On top of that there is ONLY 18 outbreaks within 5 years...  That isn't bad...  Look how many people die from smoking...  Now, don't get me wrong...   Smoking is the greatest thing in the world...  however, Get a life...  Stop making retarded laws and focus on the needs at hand...

Answer 2

I think it is ridiculous.I grew up drinking un pasteurized milk straight from the cow,we had milk butter and cheese and buttermilk,all of us are quite healthy.For those who want to do it I see nothing wrong with it.The FDA is out of control they can't guarantee what we get from the grocer to be healthy.They should be worrrying about our meat and veggies,not a dairy farmer trying to make a living.I hope he sues them.
