Raw Milk

Today, many, many people are descending on Sacramento in an attempt to get our legislature to let us be grown ups.

Our nanny government has decided that we don't know enough to not eat things that might hurt us, so they must make it illegal to sell raw milk.

You know. Milk from the cow. Like people have been drinking it for thousands and thousands of years.

We protested enough that they've decided to let us have a public forum to fix their bill. You can find information here:

The gist of the problem, as usual, is semanitcs. The legislature is using an incorrect definition of coliform bacteria, and like the false premise, this only leads to a false conclusion. Raw milk drinkers hope desperately that our lawmakers figure this out and will change the wording of their bill. Or get rid of the bill, entirely.

Or I swear - I'm gonna buy my own cow.
