At this point, racism as the prime motivation behind people wanting to keep DDT banned is the simplest solution and the one which Occam's razor would favor. Somebody supporting the ban on DDT would have to prove to me that he wasn't a racist.
Huh? Are you people nuts??? Did you ever think that someone actually might.. just might.... think that pesticides are bad for people's health? I assure you, there are a LOT of people who believe that. The success of organic food stores attest to it. This viewpoint that pesticides are unhealthy may be silly... but it sure ain't racism.
I hope you are just yanking my chain... and having a laugh... because this "fear of pesticides = racism" opinion has got to be the most disjointed stupid arguement I've ever heard. Geeeeeeezzzzzz. Ug. No more. I feel dirty even responding to this absurdity.
