I'm no fan of Monsanto or unaccountable corporations in general. But I found this article passed on by an anti-GMO neighborhood friend to be rather hyperbolic.

There's a long quote in the article but it doesn't say who it's from, unless I'm missing something.

There's enough bullshit in that article to fertilise all the crops they mention.

The article is horseshit.

"That which can be asserted without evidence can be dismissed without evidence." - Hitchens


And bringing up The Monsanto Protection Act tells me that this person has bought into every bogus claim out there.

Uncertainty may make you uncomfortable. Certainty makes you ridiculous.

Why not question something for a change?
