The Case of Rawesome Foods


So I haven't known quite what to make of the whole raw-food-store-raid thing in Venice Beach, CA. I can understand the concerns about possible viruses, illness, etc. But, on the other hand, what more dramatic example of the food police—make that Food SWAT—could there be?

Was a raid necessary? Can't warning labels and signs be required instead? There must be some less extreme options here.

We live under a government that always prefers to err on the side of overreach. Personal freedom/responsibility is an afterthought, at best.
