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.

Sue their asses off?
What the hell are these people thinking?
So true.
Brilliant, did Obumo order this raid cause it is Texas. How many guys does it take to go in a field and check for weed. Maine does it with one guy. I assume she was not yound enough to take on 10 or more swat guys and win. Go after Obumo for breaking laws that he does not agree with.
Hopefully the farmers can get someone to sue the police department.
My question is, where’s OSHA? That is definitely not safe.
?????
that is so the UN can have an excuse to come in and police America . . .

Well for sure the swat team brought the violence. There was no felonies at that farm only alleged misdemeanors.
