Gardening is not a crime: Woman charged with misdemeanor for having a garden

Natural Cures Not Medicine on Facebook: www.facebook.com/naturalcuresnotmedicine

Gardening and crime don't really sound like they go together, but when faced with an overbearing government bureaucracy anything is possible. This video is a prime example of what happens when the government gets out of control and the corporate grocery industry has it's tentacles around the local city politicians. Julie Bass was fined and charged with a misdemeanor for planting an organic garden in her front yard.

Ron Finley plants vegetable gardens in South Central LA -- in abandoned lots, traffic medians, along the curbs. Why? For fun, for defiance, for beauty and to offer some alternative to fast food in a community where "the drive-thrus are killing more people than the drive-bys."

Prescription drugs killing more people than all illegal drugs combined

Something you wont see on the mainstream news, which "coincidentally" makes profit from the commercials these very same drug companies run: FDA approved prescription drugs are actually more dangerous than illegal drugs.

http://www.castlemedical.com/

The worldwide epidemic of prescription drug use is growing and horrifying rate and is now responsible for more deaths than all car accidents combined. It is becoming well know that mainstream doctors are now being bribed by Big Pharma to prescribe unknowing patients unneeded hard pharmaceuticals. Women are becoming especially susceptible to abusing legal drugs with the rate of over-dosing increasing 500% over the last ten years. Currently 18 women die every day on average from prescription drug overdose and this number is growing at a rapid rate. Watch this video about the problem we're facing with the Big Pharma industry and the destruction they are causing.

Bee Keepers File Lawsuit Over Approval of Bee-Killing Pesticide

Natural Cures Not Medicine on Facebook: www.facebook.com/naturalcuresnotmedicine

SAN FRANCISCO, CA — National Beekeeping organizations along with the National Honey Bee Advisory Board have come together in an attempt to protect the bee industry by an appeal against EPA for its approval of the pesticide Sulfoxaflor, shown to be “highly toxic” to honey bees, and other insect pollinators. Sulfoxaflor is a new chemistry, and the first of a newly assigned sub-class of pesticides in the “neonicotinoid" class of pesticides, which some scientists across the globe have linked as a potential factor to widespread and massive bee colony collapse. The case is filed as the beekeeping industry across the country struggles for survival, and faces the costly effects of pesticides upon their businesses.

The National Pollinator Defense Fund, American Honey Producers Association, National Honey Bee Advisory Board, the American Beekeeping Federation, and beekeepers Bret Adee, Jeff Anderson and Thomas R. Smith have filed an appeal against the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in the U.S. Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, requesting changes needed in the Sulfoxaflor label, the Biological Economic Assessment Division (BEAD) assessment of the value of pollinators and their established habits, and the EPA’s Risk Assessment Process. These changes would acknowledge pollinator’s critical role in the U.S. food supply, and ensure that decisions regarding new pesticides comply with applicable laws.

Over 400 Companies Who Aren’t Using GMOs In Their Products

Natural Cures Not Medicine on Facebook: www.facebook.com/naturalcuresnotmedicine

If you want to keep eating poison food, you can join the ‘scientists’ who keep spewing Monsanto-funded lies. They are telling us that genetically altered crops are good for us and the environment – that they are, in fact, a necessity to feed the world population. They say all of this, even though we seemed to feed the masses just fine without chemical quackery until about 60 years ago, all while dumping millions of tons of unaltered food right into the trash bin. If however, you believe GMOs are toxic, cancer-causing substances, you have another option.

We will always need to fight for what we believe in and ignite change through things like the March Against Monsanto and the upcoming Monsanto Video Revolt(which you should absolutely get involved in, as it’s super easy), but it’s also important to use your dollar not only to vote, but also to keep yourself healthy.
