And the plaintif gets what, a hundred grand maybe? Just got 2 1/2 gallons of concentrate delivered. If it’s that dangerous, how come I could get it through Amazon? Did they say it “may” have contributed to his ailment?

The scientific consensus is that Bayers Roundup herbicide is safe
The concept of scientific consensus has been utterly and permanently broken by the Global Warming loonies.

That's not sarcasm, that's a FACT!
Donald Trump got a $3 jury award in the USFL antitrust case because, to quote one of the jurors, "we just didn't think that Donald Trump needed any more money."

If this ruling stands, you can forget about getting any more of this herbicide, through the mail or otherwise. No company can take this kind of financial hit over a chemical that sells for a tiny fraction of the damages demanded.

Glyphosate is no more toxic than warm clam juice. In that case, I don't want to go anywhere near it.
LOL!

Me too, It works great on poison sumac. And I will wear gloves and mask and not rub it all over my body like aftershave.

What befuddles me is that this was Monsanto’s problem until Bayer decided to acquire them last year.
Why on earth would ANY company want to take on the liability for hundreds of millions of dollars in potential settlements?
My conspiracy theory at the time was to cut the Germans in on GMO’s in order to tamp-down on the anti-GMO sentiment in the EU. But surely it’s not worth this.

We used Round Up to kill weeds in our driveway. A few years ago I was determined to have CML. Where do I collect my millions?

The last 2 cases were homeowners. It is inconceivable that a homeowner, through normal use is contracting cancer and someone who uses the stuff for a living is not.
If coffee is a carcinogen, how do we know it wasn’t the coffee?

Having sold “Round Up” to retail markets and understanding how the product works 99% of the science is junk...
The active ingredient stops the process of photosinthsis and the plant starves to death...
The other crap they put in there to brown the leaves is toxic...

The fact that both governments and large corporations have a
LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG history of lying to us sure doesn’t help.
