ECO-REVOLUTION: GMO Crops TORCHED

Post by *BlackFox »

Though the controlled corporate media apparatus is suppressing the story, 40 tons of GMO crops were torched, prompting an FBI investigation. There has been a COMPLETE MEDIA BLACKOUT, outside of local circles has dared to mention it, perhaps because government fears that if the public learns that other people are getting fighting mad (literally), they might join in, and become an actual revolution. It was only reported locally live on KXL Radio and echoed by the Oregonian, where the ONLY web mention exists, hard to find because the headline wording is carefully avoids the most likely keywords for a search.

Here’s what happened — 40 Tons of GMO Sugar Beets were set ablaze in Oregon, yesterday. FORTY TONS — the entire acreage of two full fields of crops IN THE GROUND were set ablaze over a THREE NIGHT PERIOD OF TIME. That means ARSON.

This is decently old news by the world's standard these days.

I've seen the peaceful gatherings and protests by the anti-GMO crowd, and I can respect that. Getting to the point where you're committing major felonies as part of some "revolution" is both petty and incredibly bad for the cause.

Maybe they were infected and were to start an apocalyptic disaster and someone took it upon themselves to be a hero and save the world. Of course no one would know and they would be made out to be the bad guy though.

Pen and Teller have an episode on this issue and to be honest it does present very good arguments for GMO.

That being said the amount of power Monsantos has should not be, you shouldn't be able to patent food because that is life and holding life hostage is as low as it gets morality wise.

There is also the issue of people needing to stop Farking, multiplying like we are and producing all these retards just promotes the current ever lasting trend of enslavement.

The day machine can do just about everything for us is nearing and if we can have as much room as our greedy minds crave and lack little we would be in a good position to stop our nasty history and perhaps even start to appreciate one another.

These activists have Monstanto and GMO synonymous in their minds that the latter suffers even if they're not that harmful. Monsanto's GMO - hell, guaranteed almost all GMOs - are tightly controlled, tested, and regulated, that the perceived harmful impacts are next to nothing.

What's wrong with Monsanto is their business ethics. They can patent food all they want but be damned sure to follow any country's regulatory laws. Don't sneak in GMOs when they're not allowed. Glad I don't work for that company anymore, but damn their name is still inked in my resume. *sigh*
