Organic Farmers Challenge Monsanto in Landmark Suit

I always enjoy seeing David and Goliath contests; especially knowing David will win despite his size!  Brave small farmers (David) are going after corporate giant Monsanto (Goliath).  That in itself is the picture of bravery as they empty their life savings fighting for what the Constitution promises not just them, but the rest of us who depend on them.  It is incredibly inspiring and I do whatever I can to support the "David" side of this fight.

The picture below is for every "David" out there.  It is a picture of tenacity and bravery.  If this man could be THIS courageous you can too.  His name is August Landmesser.  Who is he?  He's a man; just an ordinary man with extraordinary courage.


Someone posted this picture in facebook recently.  Landmesser was sentenced to two years of hard labor for marrying a Jewish woman and in this picture he is the only one not doing the Nazi salute.  It inspires me to see this.  He knows that his nation turned against him and he decided not to submit to its tyranny.

Nor will we Monsanto!  If August Landmesser can stand up to a force as frightening as Nazis, we can take a stand against you!  I repeat you will not win!
