Idiots (EDITED)
(EDITED! Trying to do too may things at once!)
I am fed up. I was goofing off on the internet (as I often do) and when I checked my email I had a letter from truth.com. I have to say I am tired of all of these groups. Mostly of all this one. Those guys drive me nuts.
Their ads are ridiculous. I am getting sick and tired of pretentious nonsense being spewed out by pampered twenty-something’s who want to make a difference. You wanna make a difference? Get your own shit straight, then keep it that way and leave people alone. These fools over at truth.com go and stand in front of tobacco companies to tell them *gasp* tobacco products are BAD for people! Who would have guessed setting a bunch of crap on fire and inhaling it was bad for you?! Christ people, you want me to come stand in front of your house to announce to you the sky is blue?
Look, I get it, they think they are helping people, or at least that is what they want to believe. The fact is they are simply acting like annoying pretentious jackasses. Common sense would tell you if a person chooses to do something that is harmful to themselves... it is their own fault! But no, they think it is better to have a woman who destroyed her own voicebox with something she knew to be bad for her stand in front of the building and bitch. Why gripe at the companies, you are the idiot that did that to yourself.
Maybe I am over reacting, but I think it is the same little punk ass kids being put through college by mommy and daddy who were bought a new VW Bug for their sixteenth birthday who are killing people. We have multiple countries around the world where people are starving to death and these morons are protesting genetically engineered grain that could save millions. Why? because they only eat all organic foods and wear hemp tee shirts, and they think the rest of the world should too. Also because they don'tunderstand the first thing about what GE grain is, or how it is produced. So their solution is to starve people to death. Brilliant. Posted by Hello

I enjoyed what you said except for the GE foods nonsense. Starvation has always been about access to food. It's not about growing some freak variety of corn, which, by the way, infects other crops and destroys biodiversity and has a lot of other problems wrong with it that aren't being properly analyzed because people are short-sighted and see it as a holy grail. That there are namby pamby young kids pushing on the same side of the ball doesn't make what they're saying wrong.

Believe what you want about GE foods, I have heard the "infection" tale before. What you are talking about is cross pollination, which works both ways. Cross pollination is the KEY to biodiversity. GE grains being part of cross pollination does not impair biodiversity. That complaint comes from the organic growers (who cater specifically to people like these kids) because if their crop cross pollinates with a GE crop it can no longer be sold as fully organic, and they can’t hike the price up by 300%. It is about business. Ever notice it is always the people who greatly profit from oil that have the complaints about alternative fuel sources?
And yes, starvation IS about access to food, which is where GE grains come in. Grain can be engineered to grow in areas where they normally could not, thus giving access to those who previously had none.
What people always site as GE foods are the experiments where tomatoes would be mixed with fish genes. What they don't talk about is that THOSE types of food were never meant for human consumption. Those are not the foods being raised in GE crops. GE crops are ALL about biodiversity. Every time two plants cross pollinate, they share genes, and take on characteristics. It is how nature works. GE foods are little more than someone actually CHOOSING which traits a plant takes on rather than leaving it to chance.
