I was the one who
said Monsanto's ad campaign where they say, "Roundup, safe as table
salt..." was
pulled by a New York court and was being sued for a number of things.
I don't
ever recall YOU saying the phrase

Why is it that Monsanto in New York courts is always
thrown about when in fact it was the total pest control
industry across the country that had to change. No
words or phrases such as "Safe As","Less toxic than",
"EPA registered", "Organic" even when true, are not
allowed to be used in advertising/ solicitation.
Here is part from Texas' laws and regulations...

Uh, yeah, which is why a judge mandated they immediately pull the ad
campaign.

No, that's not accurate animaux. The case was settled out of court. There
was no mandate from the court. There was no 'immediate order'.
