When I was still in montana we had the water police out trying to regulate and control the amount of water that was getting pumped out of the ground on a farm in the state of montana. That was ground water that was a waterwell but this is beyond anything I have seen yet.

Charging someone for having water come off there roof Im sorry but there comes a point when there needs to be another klamith falls incident done here to send the fed a message to back off if theres no water for the crops you dont eat the morons that did this need to be fired.

This is another prime example of the "state" gone completely mad. The rights and privileges of people are being stripped away daily, to the point where the dark lords just might reach their goal... of having every man, woman and child totally dependant upon the state. They're even trying to make us stop thinking for ourselves. They believe (actually, they know from past experience) that if we think for ourselves, we might become dangerous.

Well I've got news for the PTB. we're going to continue to think for ourselves. In fact, we're gonna kick it up a notch. And if you keep this bull shyte up, and keep pushing and pushing... I guarantee you, we're going to become very god damned dangerous. BACK OFF ALREADY!

The laws are becoming absolutely insane and really are designed to take away ALL our freedoms, even our freedom to think. The thought police are working overtime these days. Here's another sample of the insanity:

I'm not sure which state this law is in effect (I think it's Virginia but I could be wrong). The law is that it is illegal to make love with a sheep... unless it weighs over 40 lb. Yes, that law is really on the books.

Surely if a guy is gonna make love with a sheep, he can pick the prettiest one if he wants to, and if she's a little on the skinny side, what business is that of the god damned state? Gesis Kreist, what is this world coming to?

Wow that's truly insane that they can prevent any human being from collected a resource like rain of all things. Ohh yeah cause a few people have bought the right to ALL the rain that falls in ALL of the united states?

HAHAHAH

Wow, democracy and capitalism at work huh guys?

Good job Obama, seems your Eco-Nazi regime is taking is spreading it's roots quite nicely.

Next we'll have a tax for our burps and farts. We are halfway there with the cow flatulance tax.

Yes - people need to stand up.
I suspect that they will cause trouble with having your own the solar resources/equipment sometime soon.
How dare we steal the sun.

This kind of stuff makes me pretty convinced that the only hope for humanity at this point is a massive pandemic or war that will precipitate a major die-off. If I have to be one of those to go, then I guess that'd just be my sacrifice for the sake of the survival of humanity and the planet. But about 95% of the people on this planet are just too stupid to keep living!!!!!

Over here in the UK we are charged for the water that lands on our roofs and goes down the drain (a lot of residential people dont know this as it only appears on business bills, although joe public still gets charged), however, if we collect it, like people do in their gardens in them big blue drums, you can be fined for stealing off the water company.

Its shameful how man can add a price to something that is provided to us by nature.

Imagine this scenario gone completely crazy...

Where did this particular rainstorm originate from? Evaporation of a lake located several states away. So does that state have any claim to the rainwater?

I am just taken aback by all of this. Quite literally I'm speechless and if it were me, I would fight it until no end.

I live in rural Pennsylvania, have my own well, own land, ect. The day I get taxed for rainwater, using my well water, breathing, or any God given thing I have here on Earth, is the day I say that it is the final straw, and the Revolution shall begin.

Rest assured, it is one of the many things that will lead to it in the end, regardless.

I suppose we all need to get lawyers and claim our air rights before those get taken away too and we aren't allowed to breath.

It's always easier to ask for forgiveness than permission.

Why did she even bother applying for a permit? She should have just started doing it and I bet no one would have ever said anything. Now if she tries, they'll be watching and ready to fine her.

Get a bunch of guns on the farm and see what the response is to that. Make sure all media knows that you're holding the water as 'hostage'. Force the administration to acknowledge that any sort of licensing or regulating of rain water is the most idiotic thing ever. Get the whole town in on the action and see if they still try to regulate rain water.
You might think that this is abit extreme but this sort of extreme stupidness requires a swift and decisive response. You can try to sort it out by legal means etc. but you will only lose huge amounts of time and money and likely will never get anywhere.
Next thing we know they want us to purchase license for oxygen too, and for CO2 for plants
