And on the other hand, eco-terrorists scaremongers come up with labels that

public into believing that every genetic change is bad unless it occurred
randomly.



The real terrorist are the blinded followers of uncharted science.
GMO foods are cross pollinating organic crops, they are limiting the
world seed bank and move towards monoculture. Any gardener with half
their wits understands the dangers of monoculture and world food
production.

GMO crops limit my ability to be free of GMO, now you're polluting my
crops.

Sustainable farmers and organic farmers are being imposed upon by bad
science.

Harmful insects and plant diseases are always present,

The sensible approach to disease and insect control is to grow sturdy crops in a healthy environment."
