(NaturalNews) Thanks to the extraordinarily cruel and vindictive actions of the LA County and Ventura County District Attorneys' offices, California is rapidly losing its reputation as a state that promotes a healthy lifestyle. Instead, the state is becoming increasingly known as "the torture state" where senior citizen farmers and fresh food advocates are imprisoned, tortured, and charged with felony crimes for making fresh milk available to customers. See our astonishing report on California's latest assault on a 65-year-old "milk man" at:
http://www.naturalnews.com/035208_James_Stewart_torture_county_jail.h...France, on the other hand, has embraced the health benefits of raw milk. There, innovative dairy farmer Michel Cantaloube has created a
raw milk vending machine (see photo below). The vending machine is a tastefully-designed kiosk that blends right into the urban setting, allowing it to be set up on a street corner on a French town or even a major metropolitan area.
Customers can purchase whatever quantity of raw milk they wish, and unlike in the United States, they don't even have to go through the bizarre paperwork of owning a "cow share."
California declares war on raw dairy farmers
Back in Los Angeles, raw dairy farmer Sharon Palmer has been slapped with
38 felony counts drummed up by the county, which has a rogue DA office running a campaign of
personal revenge against dairy farmers. Driven into near-bankruptcy by the fines and legal fees, Palmer has been unable to repay farm investors as planned, so when her repayments fell behind, the county charged her with financial fraud.
Keep in mind that when MF Global's Jon Corzine stole billions of dollars from investors, he was never even charged with a crime. When Wall Street giants like Goldman Sachs went broke making bad beds with other people's money, the United States government
gave them a trillion-dollar bailout! But when a small, organic
raw milk farmer in California runs into financial trouble caused by the state itself, they get charged with
38 felony counts of fraud.
James Stewart, the 65-year-old "milk man" from California, was arrested nine days ago for the crime of merely "knowing" Sharon Palmer. His bail was set at the astonishing level of
$1 million -- an amount rarely used even for rapists and murderers. (Sharon's bail was set at $2 million!) He was then subjected to extreme torture that nearly killed him in an LA County jail. This included food deprivation, sleep deprivation, hypothermia, interrogation, verbal intimidation and even flooding his jail cell with
raw human sewage and forcing him to clean out the raw sewage himself. Read the full details at:

vending machines on street corners, but in California -- a state which used to represent a healthy, happy lifestyle -- raw milk advocates are targeted by the state as criminals, then subjected to personal vengeance campaigns run by the DA's office.
France = the "healthy food nation" of raw
milk and red wine.
California = the "torture state" of total government brutality and oppression of farmers, along with the torture of raw dairy advocates.
