But in post after post, you simply have been making
bald statements that GM crops have "never been through any safety
testing"


This is the truth.

Ask the FDA or EPA what tests they have done on the GM crops approved
here, for example:

24 July 1995 - USDA rules genetically engineered herbicide-tolerant
cotton safe to grow (USDA)
13 July 1995 - USDA rules genetically engineered cotton safe to grow
(USDA)
13 July 1995 - USDA rules Genetically Engineered corn safe to grow
(USDA)
22 June 1995 - USDA rules on Genetically Engineered tomato lines
(USDA)
24 March 1995 - USDA rules on Genetically Engineered potato (USDA)
10 March 1995 - USDA to rule on Genetically Engineered corn (USDA)
1 March 1995 - USDA to rule on Genetically Engineered corn (USDA)

There were no tests done on any of these crops, only "assessments" of
data provided by the manufacturer...
