Why do you constantly barrage us with your hate for Monsanto?
This topic has been beyond beaten to death here....
Why don't you open these anti-Monsanto threads in a fresh arena, like P&OC, they like to rehash the same old crap over and over and over and over and over....
Perhaps we ought to have the brains to consider the ramifications of the fact that Monsanto hasn't held the patent to Glyphoste (the active ingredient in RoundUp) for YEARS.
Or maybe we could give them names of all the (according to the greenie-nuts) millions of people who have been killed by Glyphosate. No wait, there aren't any!
But maybe ought to also talk about chemicals used in Organic Farming. Chemicals such as pyrethrum, copper sulphate, pyrethrin, and rotenone - all KNOWN cancer causing carcinogens.

Its ok they are natural, natural things are good, like asbestos, silica, radon, uranium, and of course the sun.
It gets really tiring seeing these op-ed blogs cited as credible.
There have ALWAYS been a tiny percentage of weeds that are resistant to specific herbicides, ever since herbicides have been used. Think about it... Were that not the case, all weeds would have long since been eradicated.
What do farmers do, when weeds don't respond to RoundUp? The same thing they've been doing for decades, with other herbicides: USE A DIFFERENT HERBICIDE, OR PULL THE WEEDS BY HAND.
This is nothing new.
