Minnesota Man Arrested, Sentenced To 6-Months In Jail For Having A Windmill On His Property

Orono, MN – For more than a year, we have been following the story of a Minnesota man, Jay Nygard, who is routinely risking jail time because he refuses to remove a wind turbine from his property. Nygard has been in and out of court over the years, and despite a short-lived victory in October, he was recently back in front of a judge facing a contempt of court charge for refusing a court order to remove the turbines from his property.

He did eventually remove the turbines, leaving only the cement bases because removing them would cause structural damage to their house. This was not good enough for the local government, who ignored the advice of three different engineers and demanded that they remove the bases, despite the risk of damaging the home.
This is all that remains of the windmill on Nygard’s property, a concrete footing, in the ground.
On Friday, Nygard was arrested and, according to his son, has been given six months in prison for refusing to remove the base.
According to Kahler Nygard, Jay’s son, his father even attempted to make peace with the county and compromise on a number of different issues, but they ignored his appeals.
“The choices for my dad were to potentially destroy our foundation in the house or go to jail, he even offered an olive branch saying he would add an easement to the deed saying when the house is demolished the pad must be removed, but that was ignored also,” Kahler said in an exclusive interview with The Free Thought Project.
“The base was level with the ground and 4 feet cubed. We removed the top half of the concrete and used a metal cutting tool to remove the top half of the bolt assembly, rendering the structure unusable,” Kahler explained.
Nygard has the right to do whatever he wants with his own property, but unfortunately in a democracy such as the United States, the property rights of an individual can be overridden according to the whims of politicians and the demands of uninvolved third parties.
Please share this story with your friends and family in hopes of keeping a good man, whose only “crime” was self-sustainability, out of jail.

Here is the key ” he even offered an olive branch saying he would add an easement to the deed saying when the house is…” Deed. If he has deed- of any kind he bought an interest in the property- like everyone else. in legalese- it is called ” color of title”. If he is still paying the king property tax- he does NOT own the land. The international bankers own it all of the land here as “hypothecated collateral” on the interest on our national debt- as a condition of the Bankruptcy of the United States in 1933. he does not own it- they just let him stay there as long as owns property tax(rent on the land). If he stops paying- he will quickly find out who owns it when they seize their property and sell to recoup THEIR loss. Get it? He can sell- his interest in the property- but unless he has a LAND PATENT on the property- he does not own it outright- Period.
