Probably because we are too busy eying Kim Kardashian's latest sexy high-heels and being hysterical with worry over football players' imaginary girlfriends to be bothered with anything that matters.
I wonder why this stuff gets discovered in Europe and not here.... OD
I think it's because some European countries allow labeling of food as xontaining GMOs, whereas here in the US, the FDA has decided there's no danger, and the food need not be labeled.
Remember when DDT was the best thing in the world? And then it wasn't? Or freon? Or....?
All experiments that at the time were the best thing since sliced bread (so long as there was profit to be made).

In other words, no one has died. This makes about as much sense as the squealing about brain tumors from cellphones and some horrible things (I don't recall what) caused by electric lines). A scientific theory is by definition subject to disproof. You're not practicing science. You're just caught up in peasant superstitions because no one can provide a negative proof.
Read a book on logic or, if you wish something tastier, read Aristotle. Rational people figured this out more than 2000 years ago. The peasant will never understand these simple precepts, however.
No GMO food will cause death faster than having NO food put aside! I'll take the former; you take the latter, if you wish. We're all eating GMOs now anyway. Any dead CD Forum members will be immediately suspended!

Happy, I think you are starting to think you are a deity... That's scary
I am trained in a hard science and I spent quite a few years of my career working with various molecular biology and bioinformatics labs and cancer research institutes (both private and public university labs). Unless you have done something similar....
If you understand any of the issues involved in this - there has simply not been enough time to observe all the possible effects of GMOs on the animals, people and the environment. I am not a PhD but I know enough to at least worry about all the possible outcomes...
It's pretty sorry when death has to be the limit to decide if something is good or not. That isn't scientific or logical at all. I think someone might need to read his own books again.
I'm a latchkey kid from the 70s. I'm pretty much screwed anyways.
