Naperville anti-smart meter activists fight back at council meeting, accuse city of breaking its own laws
(NaturalNews) The rule of law has completely gone out the window in the
Chicago, Illinois, suburb of Naperville, where two mothers were recently
arrested for trying to stop utility workers and local police from
illegally trespassing on their private property in order to install
cancer-causing "smart" meters. As voiced by anti-smart meter activists
during a recent city council meeting following the arrests, the city of
Naperville blatantly violated its own ordinances by not only having the
women arrested, but also by trespassing on their private property
without consent.
For several years, Jennifer Stahl, Malia "Kim"
Bendis, and a cohort of other local residents informed about the dangers
of remotely-controlled smart meters have been working to block efforts
by the city to forcibly install the devices on all residents' homes
throughout the area. Smart meters, which are controlled by wireless
access points, emit large amounts of electromagnetic radiation, and have
been linked to causing severe headaches, heart palpitations, anxiety,
and even cancer, not to mention a plethora of personal privacy
violations.
But the group, known as
Naperville Smart Meter Awareness (NSMA), saw its efforts come to a head when both Stahl and Bendis were
arrested at their own homes, in front of their families, for refusing to
allow the local electric utility, which is owned and operated by the
city of Naperville, to install the devices on their houses. Stahl,
Bendis, and various other NSMA volunteers had already been harassed by
local officials for refusing the devices prior to the arrests, but when
it finally came down to installing the devices on a second and third
attempt, local police got involved to ensure compliance.
"It's
not acceptable that the city can choose for me on my behalf to install
this meter that I don't think is appropriate for myself," explained
Stahl, as the issue was escalating, to reporters. "I choose to keep my
analog meter because of all the issues (with
smart meters). I can't believe the city is not providing an alternative option."
Be
sure to check out all the video footage captured by NSMA of the city of
Naperville forcibly installing smart meters against the will of the
people:

following the arrests, Tom Glass, an NSMA leader, basically read the
riot act, drawing attention to the completely illegal and
unconstitutional breaking and entering of private property that took
place under the watch of
Naperville Mayor A. George Pradel. Glass explains how the city violated its own
laws by handling the matter the way it did, and that such treatment is
completely unacceptable.

The Blaze about this issue. "This is about an overbearing government."
Texas woman brandishes firearm to 'shoo' smart meter installation drone off her propertyMeanwhile,
a Houston, Texas-area woman took advantage of her Second Amendment
rights when worker drones from her local utility tried to forcibly
install a smart meter on her home in Harris County, physically
assaulting her in the process. Thelma Taormina reportedly brandished a
firearm in response, which prompted the previously unrelenting utility
worker to quickly vacate her property.
"Our Constitution allows us not to have that kind of intrusion on our personal privacy," explained Thelma to
KHOU 11 News in Houston. "They will be able to tell if you're running your computer,
your air conditioner, whatever it is -- they all put off different
signal signatures," added Thelma's husband Nick about smart meters in
general.
