Re: Anti-Monsanto Activism!!!

Has this spread to other countries as well??

well the short answer is yeah...
they are world wide for crop seed distribution, there are different laws in different countries..
I remember hearing about a court case against a mexican village that was producing a yellow bean ( similar to a lental) that they were growing for generations..( had frescos on Mayan temples for crying out loud) any how Monsanto was suing them to stop selling the beans on the grounds that they patented it .. their proof ...genetic tests.. and Monsanto claimed there was never a yellow bean until they came up with it... the Mayan temples was pretty good proof to the contrary... however it also proved that the beans were already cross contaminated in the boonies of Mexico..

the genes are out there.. the genie is out of the bottle..

worlds top crops wheat corn soybeans rice cotton... all gmo's

The government is not to be trusted!!! They are the biggest liars and master manipulators in this country...ethics don't pertain to them, it is sick and saddening this is who we have running our country.

True...big company;s won't hesitate to allow a 'sheep' to die to make a profit...it's pure evil.

Re: Anti-Monsanto Activism!!!

actually Phillip Morris was using gene splicing to control the Nicotine in the 70's
Filed the patient in Brazil and Portuguese and hid the fact that it was gene splicing ....
just saying they came up with it . and then "Brazilian seeds" shipped the seeds to the US ...

that all came out when they finally admitting they were controlling the amount of nicotine not just for flavor ..but for the addiction...

the amazing thing is that they covered up the gene splicing for decades...and they were years ahead of every one .. and as far as we know never used it except for tobacco ... the ultimate conspiracy theory is they sold it to Monsanto
