yup, i’ve heard a lot of this stuff before, but it’s always good to hear it again.

Teflon, which gore-tex is made of, stays in your body for years. Everyone has it in their system.

There are plenty of poisons in our body, we’re eating food materials we shouldn’t be eating. I am not one to think that it’s Conservative to not ban this stuff. Perhaps not the Federal Government, to a Constitutional purist, so then the states. I have no problem if my state, Maine, just said, there is plenty of evidence that this seed, that plastic, etc., is just too risky, we don’t want it here.

Global Warming, however, is just bs.

I think Global Warming, in part, is just an excuse to get environmentalists focused on the wrong thing. If Global Warming is the worst thing ever for the Environment, and we haven’t solved it, then why worry about anything else, let’s focus on the main priority. Well Global Warming is bs, and focusing too much on animals and fish and birds and plants is bs, but I don’t want to be eating mystery hybrid food/bacteria combos. I’d rather that be banned. And if not banned, that clearly labeled.

Maybe instead of a skull and crossbones poison logo, there could be a cartoon devil head and Contains GMOs. Or a winking frankenstein head and Contains GMOs.

I have trouble believing these industry lobbyists who insist that everyone will starve if they can’t increase crop production by 20%. People haven’t been starving in the US in a long time, long before GMOs.

I live in the breadbasket of the US. You can drive through Kansas, Iowa and Nebraska and you will see miles and miles of GMO corn being grown proudly displaying their seed ID signs. Corn subsidies have made it a frequently chosen crop.

The enormous amount of this corn being produced (without understanding it's impact on humans and the environment) is shocking. The push back on any organization which questions the safety of GMO’s is enough to make anyone start to think those “nut jobs” who believe the world elite are trying to decrease the population and control the food supply may not be that nutty after all.....

Do you seriously believe Americans would put up with the 20 or 30% reduction in food supply that would result if we elimate GM crops?
