You're using it as an insult without having any idea what it actually means.
Oh but it does, they need a massive wave of like minded voters in order to stack the deck in their favor, if you dont believe me look at California 10 years after the 1986 amnesty..

Default Russia announces total ban on GMO's

http://rt.com/politics/russia-gmo-foods-ban-567/

Wonder if this has ANYTHING to do with the crap going on between US and Russia? Is it JUST about Crimea? I don't think so. Pretty soon Monsanto is gonna become irrelevant. As usual though the US's politicians are too busy lining their pockets with money to care about its citizens affected by GMO's.

Few people in the U. S. feel concerned that city governments putting fluoride in the tap water is a bad idea, so I'm not surprised so few people feel that GMO food is a bad idea. Or feel negative concerns about GMO are needless and based on nothing but junk science.

Other countries pay attention to GMO. We don't because Monsanto, I mean the FDA, tells us that GMO food is safe.

Irrelevent hardly , the World's largest Farming nations, China, India, the USA and Brazil have no problem reaping the benefits of larger crop and animal yields and lower food prices from GMOs. Europe, Japan and a few other nations are just small potatoes in the big picture of global agriculture.

It's not so much what GMOs can do to our health that is the major underlying issue, it's what it does to the environment. You sell crops of main food types and all the wild species go extinct and the plant communities suffer, what do you suppose will happen to the rain forest if they plant GMO crops? GMOs kill the immune system of a plant, the while bacteria, fungus and viruses become stronger, these then spread out to wild plants and destroy. The countries that use GMO all but have to in order to feed their huge populations. At the end of the day it's a population problem.

Wow...They just want a new home and jobs and stuff. We welcome them here with open arms so should Israeli's.

Israelis are just having a problem with the fact that Jews can be people of color and that when Jews were scatterred from Cannan that some went South.

Nothing in the story says that a total ban on GMOs was announced
