Judge Fiedler went on to clarify his ruling further:

“no, Plaintiffs do not have a fundamental right to own and use a dairy cow or a dairy herd;

“no, Plaintiffs do not have a fundamental right to consume the milk from their own cow;

“no, Plaintiffs do not have a fundamental right to board their cow at the farm of a farmer;

“no, the … Plaintiffs’ private contract does not fall outside the scope of the State’s police power;

“no, Plaintiffs do not have a fundamental right to produce and consume the foods of their choice.”

While some of the points put forward by the judge are reasonable to an extent, points two and five are particularly disturbing to constitutionalists, as they propose severe limitations on personal rights.

Holy smokes, if that wasn't bought and paid for....
