The stirring battle cry of the totalitarian: "Live the way we want you to live, or we reserve the right to destroy, kill, main, and demolish anything we want."
My garden (just planted - it is Alaska!) is FILLED with genetically modified plants. The berries in the back are a domesticated cultivar of the western thimbleberry; the difference is that my production is about four times what the forest provides. The genetically modified currants had their genes tampered with in Sweden over generations as people attempted to get the largest berry from a single plant. I daresay that any flower in my garden that was advertised with a color different from its wild counterpart has been genetically modified. As for my genetically modified tomatoes, it's just plain cool to be able to grow tomatoes right next to the Arctic Circle outside in a raised bed.
Greenpeace: What a ship of fools.

Any healthy, green papaya tree on the Big Island is likely to be modified.
OR...
possibly is a RARE example of NATURAL immunity.
I don't know the cultivation of papaya or the details of Papaya Ring Spot Virus.
But I would not be suprised that these brave eco-warriors haven't
just destoyed a source of NON-GM immunity.
That could likely be used to breed more immune papaya plants.
A few years back a band of these merry terrorists hacked down a
stand of corn at a university experimental farm in a protest against GM corn.
All of the destroyed corn plants were NOT genetically-modified;
they were ALL natural plants.

Greenpeace operatives' ability to spot the so-called contaminated papaya trees may be due to the fact that Papaya Ring Spot Virus has destroyed almost all non-GM papaya trees. Any healthy, green papaya tree on the Big Island is likely to be modified. Please note the almost and likely. They could have been naturally disease resistant like the few stands of American Chestnuts that are left.
The funny thing about these losers is that all food, unless you pick it wild in the woods is modified. Orange carrots are modified (they are naturally maroon), so are potatoes (naturally poisonous) corn, (totally man made). These guys are going to be very hungry if they eat only unmodified food.
