Well said, Bob.  I would add that animal studies done on GMO show that within three generations the offspring are mostly sterile ("By the third generation, most GM soy-fed hamsters lost the ability to have babies" - https://www.respon...­.  The FDA approves GMO applications on the reasoning that as a percentage of the total genome, the number of genes modified are so few that if falls under the category of minor design change - as if you can compare a genome to a medical device!  No long-term safety studies are required.

This dovetails nicely with the goal of our ruling elite to reduce human population down to 500 million (one of several differing estimates - see Georgia Guidestones attachment), a 93% reduction from the current seven billion.  Ted Turner advocates a 95% reduction (attachment).  Jacques Cousteau stated in an interview with the UNESCO Courier that to control population would require eliminating 350,000 people a day (see attachment).  Bertrand Russell, called the greatest philosopher of the 20th century, advocated a bubonic plague-style disease epidemic in every generation (see attachment).  Eric Pianka, the 2006 Texas Distinguished Scientist and professor at University of Texas advocates 90% population reduction.  John Holdren, the Obama Administration Science Czar, advocates forced abortions and sterilization in his book Ecoscience.

These actions would dwarf by a wide margin the greatest genocides in world history.  This is what abortion is all about, as well as homosexuality, global warming (& cooling) and other environmental scares, Agenda 21, the Obamacare death panels, fluoride in the water, the banning of DDT which successfully prevented so many Malaria deaths, AIDS, Ebola, and other new diseases, and on and on.

Subject: [ronpaul-1276] A Request I Received About GMOs

To: The San Jose Ron Paul Meetup -

I just received a request to publicize a meeting about a speech on GMOs.
Here is my response with her original request below. I have removed her name.

She claims to be a Christian, but GMOs steal farmers' property rights over their crops - a clear violation of biblical morality.

To her name was here -

The title of this talk - that GMOs are good - will drive many people away. GMOs can be good or bad depending on what they do. Altering a plant so that it generates poison to kill pests can't be good for humans who eat it.

On the other hand, there are probably ways to make a plant stronger - to withstand greater temperature extremes and that kind of thing that would be good.
The problem is that making one change in a plant's DNA can have all sorts of unintended (and unknown) consequences. There can be a cascading effect of numerous changes all caused by one DNA change.

Another problem is that the pollen from GMO altered plant is carried to other fields where the farmer may not want GMOs in his crop. The current laws allow Monsanto to sue the farmer for stealing their GMO 'technology; in spite of the fact the farmer views his crop as being tainted. He is held responsible for Monsanto not keeping their GMOs under control. He is also held liable for what bees do naturally - they pollinate.

The dishonesty of Monsanto and the crazy court rulings and laws I just mentioned turn property rights on their head. The farmer's crop is destroyed as far as he is concerned and then he has to pay Monsanto for destroying his crop!

THIS VIOLATES "THOU SHALL NOT STEAL." IT VIOLATES PROPERTY RIGHTS.
Even if GMOs were all good, a farmer has the right to control his crop.
GMOs violate that and violates one of God's 10 COMMANDMENTS.

Hi Bob, I am currently organizing several events in the Bay Area and was wondering if you could consider attending or share this information with somebody that may be interested.

Every month we have an event in your area, each being on a different topic. If you could share this with anyone interested or even someone that would like to learn more about Ayn Rand and her ideas, that would be great.
