According to alternative news sites but from the source of NICFA / Food Freedom and alternative news mirroring sites such as The FederalJack, Blacklisted News, and other alternative news sites across the internet the FDA raided a non-commercial Amish farm in Kinzers, PA.

On February 4th 2010 at 9:40 a.m. Thursday, at a Amish farm at Kinzers, Pennsylvania which is only a few miles from the Nickel Mines Amish massacre that happened in 2006, another attack against the Amish has begun but this time it ain’t a shooter but attacks against farming rights by agents of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

The FDA are better off to have names such as the Fat Rich and Dirty Administration, Food Robbers and Demon using Administration, and/or Food Exploiters and Drug Cartels Administration (Ding Dong best name for their dirty cartel.

The agents started invading the property of Amish farmer Dan Allgyer without permission claiming to be conducting an investigation against them. Agents Joshua Schafer and Deborah Haney, that work at the FDA office of Delaware, drove right past Allgyer’s “No Trespassing” signs and then driven up his driveway almost to his barn, where Allgyer happened to be around outside. Allgyer then approached the car but the agents got out, and then asked the agents why they were there.

They produced a document, asked Allgyer if his name was Dan Allgyer, which Allgyer to the agents, then asked him his initials and phone number, entered the information on the paper which was given to him to input the information, told Allgyer that they were there to perform an inspection and started reading the document to him, saying it gave them jurisdiction to perform an inspection and to be there on his private property.

The agents including Schafer did most of the talking and said that they had a right to be on his private property because they said to him that “you produce food for human consumption.” Dan asked the agents why they would believe that and they spoke back with, “Well, you have cows.  You cannot be consuming all the milk you produce.” and further stated “If you get a milk truck in to move all this milk you sell milk to the public, therefore we have jurisdiction.”

Dan said to the agents, “This is a private farm, I do not sell anything to the public.”

As they continued to harass him as they invaded Dan Allgyer’s Farm to do the inspection, Allgyer told the agents “You can sit in your car.  I will call my lawyer.”

The agents then remained standing.

Allgyer then contacted his attorney by phone who advised him to have the FDA Agents call him. When Allgyer told the agents to contact his Attorney Schafer replied, “You are the owner and you have to speak for yourself.” They pressed for him to talk and so Schafer asked Allgyer “Are you refusing us an investigation?” but Dan Allyger replied with, “That’s not what I’m saying.”.

They kept repeating six times (Dan claimed they must have asked him six times) to Dan with the same words of, “Are you refusing an investigation?”

Allgyer was saying to the agents to, “Call this guy” which means Dan’s Attorney. One of the agents was still accusing him of refusing an investigation and said to Dan, “Even if you do not say so, you are still refusing an investigation.” and after that eventually agent Schafer said, “If you refuse an investigation will you answer some questions?” but Allgyer replied, “I’d rather not.”

When the agents continued to keep pushing him Dan decided to say, “Is that a question?” but they replied with a Yes. Then Dan Allgyer replied with, “What did I say about questions?’, the agents reply with, “Well we’re going to write this up as a refusal to have an investigation and give it to our higher officials.” which may lead to fines, criminal prosecutions, and a court trial. After that Dan was scared and felt that they were threatening him after those words.

After that they got in their cars, drove out out his driveway, and parked on his neighbors property but continued to watch Dan Allgyer, and so at that moment they surveyed him from his neighbors property.

Ivan who has been a visitor on the Amish Farm but has nothing to do with Dans situation decided to left in his truck soon after the commotion, but the FDA agents decided to follow him in their car, even when he stopped to use the facilities of a small convenience store. After forty to fifty miles Mr. Ivan decided to dial 911 to tell the police that he was being followed. The state police arrived in two police cruisers, pulled over Ivan, and the agents as well.

The state police told Ivan that the agents explained  they work with the FDA and that they have the right to follow him because they conducted an investigation on the farm just simply because he was there when the cars shown up. The FDA AGents thought he had purchased or had the product that was being inspected and they wanted samples of the product they thought he has.

The agents then harassed Ivan by forcing him to open his truck, revealing it was empty, so the Agents took pictures of the inside of his empty truck, gave Ivan a document stating they had the right to inspect and take pictures of his vehicle. He got agitated and told the agents that he thinks the FDA Agents harassed him but the state trooper replied that the FDA Agents has a legal right to follow him and even pull his car over but since they are in a unmarked car Ivan would not have had to pull over.

As back with Dan, the FDA Agents then asked Ivan some information which they produced on the document, then handed it to Ivan. Ivan wondered so he asked the agents, “Why are you writing up a paper on me when you have no cause?” which is correct because if Ivan was just a visitor then he is not apart of the Amish establishment or shouldn’t have to be accused of a FDA type of crime just because he may have had some food from their land unless he has worked there but even then what evidence did they have against Ivan? I’m sure more information will be added as it’s found. They claims he had a loaf of bread from the Amish farm and the FDA wanted samples of the bread  and so the3 USWGO Founder says this while very angry after reading about this event “The FDA is very mean and the police should stay off his bread at least it’s not contaminated with anything like the FDAs approved poison GMO Foods”.

The agent replied that he saw them at the farm but Ivan replied with. “That doesn’t make any difference, I didn’t know who you were.”, then Ivan continued and pointed out that he was at the farm but did not hear what they were saying. He was twenty feet or more away from where they were and was not involved with the conversation between the agents and the Dan Allgyer.

The police said they would record the agents that had been following him in case this investigation could be false. A spokewoman for the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) said that the FDA had no comment at this time because of the fact that the investigation is ongoing, also Dan Allgyer will meat with his areas county sheriff in the future to

Ivan said the police told him they would record that the agents had been following him.

A spokeswoman for the FDA (reached at the phone number on the paper the FDA agents gave to Allgyer) said the FDA has no comment at this time because it is an ongoing investigation. In the near future Dan Allgyer will meet up with his counties sheriff to inform him on the incident.

The story will be updated if there are any additions needed.
