A jury decided last year that the owner of a small organic farm, Shellie Smith, still owes $4000 after a raid by SWAT that destroyed her farm.
Garden of Eden, a small organic in Arlington, Texas, was the target of a SWAT raid in 10-hour long search with Smith being held at gunpoint at one point.
Arlington police dept. stated that there were complaints of marijuana being grown on the premises, but none was found on the property. Instead, law enforcement confiscated 17 blackberry bushes, 15 okra plants, 14 tomatillo plants, native grasses and sunflowers.

More corruption and over-reach by idiot bureaucrats who are owned by big agribusinesses. Are you really kidding me? SWAT to check on plants when there are muslims running around in training camps preparing to murder, rape and behead Americans? Talk about mixed up priorities! These idiots in SWAT must feel real ‘manly’ pulling up bluberry bushes!
This whole thing is so wrong.Go after the real criminals.How about the Muslims that want to kill Americans.
Red dawn is on its way
