1931 ... Cedar County Iowa Cow War
Governor Turner ordered that the Iowa National Guard be sent to Cedar County to enforce testing. The next day, 1800 soldiers arrived in Tipton, the county seat of Cedar County, in order to protect state veterinarians and prevent further action by the farmers. Machine guns were placed at cross roads, and soldiers enforced state law with bayonets. http://www.history.iastate.edu/agprimer/Page24.html Wake me up when Michigan starts putting machine guns on the cross roads. |
