Yeah, even if there might be legitimate concerns about GMOs, they are completely overshadowed by the chorus of nincompoops who have no idea what they are talking about just freaking out about it.

Proving, once again, that the Lefties priding themselves so much on being the scientifically literate branch of the American family tree is so much hogwash, and so often leads to irreconcilable contradictions.

IF there really is a climatological impact from burning fossil fuels, should we not generate energy via the method with the least environmental impact? Sure. OK, that would be nuclear power. Oh, no, can't do that.

IF we need to reduce or eliminate pesticides, should we not do that via the method with the least environmental impact? Sure. OK, that would be GMO's. Oh, no, we can't do that, either.

These morons actually believe that you will cause more harmful mutations by altering crops to produce a target-specific protein than you will by dumping megatons of pesticide [or, if you don't use pesticides, by dumping gigatons of waste-based fertilizer onto much lower yield cropland.] Wrong.
