Idiots. Do they think modern corn is genetically identical to the original product?
This is more junk science from enviro-Nazis.

"Before World War II, almost all field corn grown was heirloom / open pollinated, but by the end of the war hybrid corn had really taken over in the midwest. A few diehards did hang onto the old heirloom / open pollinated corn varieties. These were replanted every year and reselected for improved strains. Today we have about 12 to 15 fairly common varieties left and these are all fairly good since they have stood the test of time. Any idea what is killing all the bees in the USA?

Have you ever seen a wild cornfield having sex with a bacterium? Do you think the people who planted and selected strains of hybrid corns in the 1950’s convinced those strains to have sex with a bacterium?
These ain’t Gregor Mendel’s hybrids.

Genetically engineering crops so that they can withstand intense dosages of pesticides will result in food contaminated with those pesticides.
Monsanto engineers the plant and also sells the pesticide. It the lobbies the government for perpetual immunity.
Too much bad juju for my liking.
