  • I would like to see her do this report in a bikini

  • GO HAMP! and Marijuana (H)

    Ron Paul for president :D

  • Thanks for sharing it and I do grow foods in my apartment resident, I'll spread the word for you, thanks again.

  • See how Monsanto was born on my channel

  • watch?v=Ydck0fSqspA

    please spread the word after watching this... we need to educate our fellow americans... we need to flood the internet with Ron Paul support... 2012

  • Watch 2 videos right here on youtube - The World According to Monsanto and The Future of Food

  • Your beauty exceeds your intelligence by leaps and bounds. Any man whom you choose to make a like with is truly fortunate and blessed. I hope (1) You are a good Catholic woman; (2) You are prepared to be a good Mommy; (3) You would be a faithful wife to that man through all the good and very difficult time that life will bring to every marriage. I pray for your successful marriage.

  • She is radiant, and gorgeous. Anyone she chooses to marry would have beautiful children. She deserves someone very special, e.g., gainfully employed, educated, even tempered, sense of humour, solid family upbringing, practicing "real" Catholic, and a sizable savings and investments.

  • jews control new order Monsanto

  • This woman is as educated and intelligent, as she is Gorgeous !!! call me !!! :)

  • its really sad that the GOVERNMENT is doing this, sneakily, trying to ease us into a never ending system.. whats more sad, is that the people DON"T want it to happen, yet monsanto has decided, it can. Where is the government thats supposed to help us at? i guess, were not as profitable as monsanto.

  • Years ago we wanted the option for line item vote power at the congressional level but on bills like these we need a bill ban option.

  • OMG what a blonde!!

  • @liveShit what the fuck? was that supposed to be derogatory?

  • good video, thanks for the info.

  • why is my middle finger twitching. the freaks need to goooooooo!

  • Hello,

    I know a Monsanto recruiter who would like you to become their spoke model, but I do not think you are a Monsanto candidate. Good bye!

    Just kidding. I am sure you are a hot model with some agency, somewhere.

  • I need a woman like u n my life

  • Did any of these bills actually get passed?

  • @LTS1287 Yea, the grocery lobby finally got what they wanted in HR2751 (S510) the Food Modernization and Safety Act which was signed into law on January 4, 2011.

    Les

  • Yes, I know that you can't save patented scenes. The video made me think that the climate here was changing to the way it was in India, where they could not save any seeds there.

    I wouldn't want to save a Monsanto seed. We need to ban them all together. A constitutional ammendment banning patents on life should do the trick.

  • @BrockRhodes -

    The big uproar in India (and in Africa, and the aid sent to Haiti) was the introduction of hybrid seed.

    Farmers in these developing countries could not grasp the concept.

    Farmers in America have been using hybrids since 1930.

    It is common knowledge that the grain grown on a hybrid plant is unsuitable for seed, it's always been that way.

    Les

  • I am having trouble locating exactly where saving seeds has been criminalized. Please specify.

    Monsanto has been using copyright law to destroy small farms, and our smartest move would be to pass a constitutional amendment to ban patents on life.

  • @BrockRhodes

    There is nothing wrong with saving seed unless they contain a patented genetic modification.

    I am having trouble understanding how Monsanto has been destroying small farms.

    Please specify.

    Les

  • I can't seem to read up enough on this topic. Les... we'll just have to agree to disagree. I assume you can read... so... how many articles about monsanto suing and bankrupting farmers do you need to see before you open your eyes to the fact that they are nothing less than a criminal enterprise. The internet allows easy access to articles and information. The only articles that favor monsanto seem to be on their own website...go figure.

  • @Senorbarnum

    There are thousands of internet sources for the same twelve cases.

    If you pay attention when you read the articles, you will see the same name(s) over and over.

    If I heard one farmer mention it at a cafe or sale barn I might think different.

    No one in farm country is talking about this.

    Les

  • @CouldNotCareLes, I am not sure that the fact that you have not heard farmers talking about this makes your case, but anyway, what about the sheer preference that many people have for non-genetically-engineered options? Alfalfa is the next GE seed to be deployed in the petrie dish that is Monsanto's U.S.A. Personally, I hate this prospect. I am writing to Obama and urging others to do so NOW. I just don't like the idea that the organic foodstream should be compromised by GE crops. What say you?

  • @leahnewyork

    My case is made with public record of the lawsuits.

    I do not see the economic advantage to RR alfalfa.

    But, then again, I do not grow alfalfa.

    Personally, I would like to go back to the 80's when there were only 4 billion humans on the planet and I would walk through soybean fields barefoot, weeding with a hoe.

    That those fields had already been sprayed four or five times didn't matter to anyone.

    'sheer preference' = folks want GMO free drive-thru burritos.

    Les

  • For the past couple of snowy weeks I've been watching documentaries about the food industry. It all started with "food inc" and I was so blown away I watched about seven more films.

    It is clear to me that Monsanto is a "terrorist organization." Although nobody seems "terrorized" by what they are doing... they are cutting off our supply and our "right" to healthy food. They are destroying small family farms all in the name of the almighty dollar.

  • @Senorbarnum

    Monsanto's customers are small family farmers.

    What makes you think they are destroying small family farms?

    Les

  • Guys, if you want to fight Monsanto just grow your own produce hydroponically! It is so easy! Start stockpiling non-GMO seeds! If any authorities have anything to say about give them a face full of lead. Enough is enough.

  • @LTS1287 FACT

  • @LTS1287 Apparently, you haven't yet realized that home gardens and seeds are no longer legal, and we're talking about a SWAT team in full armor waving automatic rifles, seizure of everything you've got, and jail.

  • @cusanusnicolas For real? Where can I find this info.?

  • I would marry that beautiful, righteous woman in half a second.

  • Its pretty obvious organic farmers do not use the gmos and chemical pesticides that Monsanto sells

  • @BoboBoyTN - neither do used car salesmen.

    Les

  • @BoboBoyTN unfortunately, the nature of pollination allows for the possibility of cross-pollination between Monsanto seed and organics- causing the organics to lose their certification they worked so hard for and because Monsanto seed is "patented" they can also sue the organic farmer for copyright infringement even though it wasn't his (or her) fault the organic crops were contaminated.

  • @arc8iablue They don't do that.

    There is a situation in Austrailia right now where the organic grower is trying to turn himself in claiming his organic fields have been contaminated by GMO canola, but no one is interested.

    No innocent farmer has ever been sued for copyright infringement.

    Les

  • @arc8iablue

    Fortunately though, that doesn't happen.

    Greenpeace would like for that to happen, and they are trying to 'prove' it happens, but so far no one is interested in their shenanigans.

    Monsanto has never sued an innocent farmer for copyright infringement.

    Les

  • @CouldNotCareLes ignorant... ur nickname is just right. Just don´t care and get ur GMO ass out of informed people talks.

  • @CouldNotCareLes

    Happened in Canada already....

  • @rajy09 - Please, that case in Canada was fifteen years ago.

    Les

  • @rajy09 - I know they sued Percy Schmeiser.

    The operative word in my comment is 'innocent.'

    Thanks,

    Les

  • It is all about control, small and local organic farming is Monsanto's biggest threat Thumbs up to support Local and organic Farming!!!

  • @BoboBoyTN -

    What makes you think that Monsanto feels threatened by any farmer?

    Les

  • Well now all you good people, mabye, just maybe, you should learn how to plant for yourself, shoot a ar-15, and standup for yourselfs for once.THINK YOU CAN DO THAT?

  • Libertarians think deregulating would allow the "free" market to work its magic for the betterment of all. Sorry, but that kind of free market isn't so free for most of us. It COSTS! Can't we learn from recent history? Do you recall Reaganomics, ENNRON, the Gulf Oil Spill, and derivatives? How about climate change? Will deregulating the market reduce or increase harmful emissions? If we could ask them, what would our descendants say of our unsustainable habits? What would YOU say?

  • I can think of no better example of the corporate greed and hubris that is wrecking our country (and others) than the Monsanto Company. The CDC just announced that water fluoridation has been poisoning millions of Americans for decades. Just imagine what they will discover about Monsanto's genetically morphed seeds - down the road, when it's too late.

  • @100inkersell - or fast food restaurant.

    Tell folks to stop spending money at their favorite fast food resteraurant.

    They won't do it.

    Les

  • @CouldNotCareLes It takes far less time and effort to complain about it than to actually take action, and thank the Dear Lord that I do not have a favorite fast food restaurant....no explanation on this one, due to brevity, but a supersized fast food meal would probably equal my caloric intake for a 3 day period

  • @painxtreme -

    true, true, and some folks eat fast food every day.

    Someone who eats that crap has no right to complain about how the food is grown.

    Les

  • now that S.510 has passed, will a shovel and hoe be considered, "contraband"?

  • @100inkersell I like the way you think! The only concern I have is will the chemicals from chem trails effect our soil to the point where we have absolutely no other choice than to eat bad food.

    Also have you heard of the study "Empty Peaches". It compares the nutrient content of various fruits of today to fruits of the 1950's : They found that our food is signifigantly less nutritous due to pollution and over used soil. Pretty sad.

  • I honestly wish everyone would just quit paying there bills and going to work and just stay home farming there own land eating there own fresh raw food, and force these big business farm and agriculture companies to there knees not to mention our financial system too... just a fresh start... imagine the health problems that would be solved from everyone eating organic and eliminating the stress we put on ourselves from our shithole jobs and financial strains

  • HR 875 has nothing to do with any national animal ID system, which would fall under the jurisdiction of the USDA, and not the FDA. Monsanto or any other large agribusiness company had no part whatsoever in drafting this bill, and Rep. DeLauro's husband and his company do no lobbying on this issue. It would not prohibit or interfere with organic farming, or mandate the use of any chemicals or types of seeds. The Organic program is not even under FDA, but rather USDA.

  • This type of control on food is worldwide.When the WTO decided that living things could be patented,it was to serve the purpose of the GMO corporations.In 17 years those corporations managed to get in every countries of the worlds with a very few exceptions.They will soon get them with their 5 years program.We are in the second year of that program.Since 11/30/2010 the Vatican is Officially pro GMO.Search for Starlink corn and Showa Denko tryptophan.You should get an idea of what GMO can do .

  • hot blonde providing real valuable news? instant subscribe

  • @100inkersell - Give me an example of a Monsanto product that the average American buys.

    Les

  • @CouldNotCareLes It would be far more simple to give examples of products, not produced and untouched by monsanto, that average Joe six pack buys, but that's up to you to research. Simply put, their reach is wide.

  • @painxtreme - It would be more simple to say the products one buys from Pepsi and Coke contain GMOs. The products one buys with the KRAFT, General Mills, Kellogg, Nabisco, and Heintz labels on them contain GMOs. But then, folks would have to stop buying stuff (to stop funding the proliferation of GMOs in our food supply) and that would be no fun now, would it.

    Les

  • @CouldNotCareLes corn, soy, cotton, conola, round up

  • @nikkilovesdustie -

    the average American buys these things?

    How much corn seed do you buy nikkilovesdustie?

    Les

  • @CouldNotCareLes We sure do consume them :) Processed foods contain many corn products: corn syrup, maltodextrin, cornstarch (baking powder), dextrose, fructose, malt, Monosodium glutimate (msg), vegetable oil,xanthan gum... just to name a few. Look at the lables of the things you eat. I garentee you will find at least a few of these in your diet.

  • @nikkilovesdustie -

    The biggest product has got to be soda.

    Your favorite pop is corn and water.

    (from the sweetener to the fizz)

    Les

  • @CouldNotCareLes I did include corn syrup :)

  • yea... food safety is just a guise. hahaa

  • I think you're all missing the point you have a right to your own garden infact shoot anyone who disagrees but damn there are some serious pests out there and organic farming is very very dangerous to ones health natural things like hydrogen peroxide and sugar don't work well , I've never seen so much fungi and sluggs you can put a saddle on and ride

  • Monsanto does have a right to protect their intellectual product. It is not unheard of for a farmer to violate their contract with Monsanto and replant seed without paying for the genetic benefits that Monsanto has developed. The question is how to find out which farmers are doing this without violating the rights of others.

  • @mbevks - All the cases they have investigated were results of tips phoned in by neighboring farmers.

    We keep each other honest out here.

    Les

  • I've heard from some local farmers.What's going on is scary true,and at the local level as well.Property assessments based on what's used to grow the produce rising.The price of whatever's used in growing them rising.That includes manure.The fees for having your produce inspected,while mass growers are left to pay the cost of doing business of selling ecoli tainted food.The passage of this food act,it will drive small and organic farmers out of business.

  • What's the status of this bill now? Has it passed? If so, what can we do to oppose it?!

  • Monopolies like who you work for are criminals. Their screwing with the food supply will result in the murder of millions. Just keep lobbying for Monsanto. We all know the truth already.

    Everyone reading this rent "Food Inc" at netflix or BB. You will see what Shelly is talking about with Monsanto.

  • @biospharms - I don't give a shit about Monsanto. I just wish you would admit that the Grocery Industry is behind this bill, and would quit trying to get folks to give up and move out of the country.

    Watch King Corn, boycott KRAFT.

    Les

  • @CouldNotCareLes Monsanto is making it so that farmers have to use their sterile AND GMO altered seeds. Yes, the grocery biz is corrupt but Monsanto is killing the food that's sent to the grocers which therefore can kill us.

  • @platinumpenink -

    I just bought my seed for 2011 ... $60,000 worth.

    None of it is Monsanto.

    I've grown Monsanto's corn and soybeans in the past, but I won't this year.

    How could a company force someone to purchase product from them? ((Don't go into some bullshit you saw on a YouTube video about lawsuits and cross--pollenation, remember that I am in the business of growing crops.))

    No seed sold today will cause the grain produced to be sterile, that is another internet myth.

    Les

  • @platinumpenink Monstanto actually does not sell sterile seeds. Although it is a violation of their contract to replant, they have decided not to sell plants that produce sterile seeds for ethical reasons.

  • @floridawaterfrontv, thank u, we do consult however, mostly outside the US. Gardening and small farms are not safe to be done here any longer. The gov of the US will regulate and control anyone out of growing their food if they are not paying Monsanto or another forced monopoly. We are in several central american countries now with complete Biospharms available. Or we will help you on your own ground even if it is on the US soil. Subscribe to our YT biospharm channel for more info.

  • @biospharms - Dude ... that is not true.

    What you are doing is criminal.

    Why do you think it is OK to profit by misleading others.

    Shame on you.

    Les

  • I could never pay 500.00 to grow squash. I don't even consider myself a farmer. I just like to garden from time to time and now they want me to pay them an annual fee so I I can grow my garden.

  • @duvexy -Oh don't get all dramatic.

    No one will ever care if you have a garden or not.

    Morningmayan is helping the GMA get this legislation signed into law.

    Les

  • @CouldNotCareLes Don't you see ? They will control the food, thus control the people. Wake up before it's to late to fight these progressives.

  • @Auggie56 - Who is 'they'?

    Les

  • @CouldNotCareLes These are they.

    watch?v=b27EFldZ17k

  • @WTU208 - well, if you are violating state and local laws by running a business without the proper zoning, permits, and are violating state and federal food safety laws, that will happen.

    They don't control food, they control business and commerce.

    Les

  • @CouldNotCareLes .. Senate Bill 510, Food Safety Modernization Act, held up due to Senate procedural error. Senate vote Monday is moot and bill is in limbo.

  • @ActontheActor - The raid WTU208 is referring to was a result of violations of laws already on the books.  It had nothing to do with the bill S510

    Les

  • @CouldNotCareLes Did say it did?

  • @CouldNotCareLes Les, don't get all dramatic when you're trying to grow some veggies and some pompous ass that has a government job and trying to fill quota to keep it comes up and hands you a ticket. Luckily, for all of us, the bill got shot down. They'll just come back with a revamped version.

  • @chop98 Held up temporarily...

  • S510 passed through senate today 73 to 25. Name one thing our government does well besides screwing it's citizens. This bill will be used to squeeze all small farmers out of exsistance to include family gardeners. Today in america no man can sew or reap without big brothers approval. This is why Biospharms are being developed off shore. Visit and subscribe to the Biospharms YT channel for more info.

  • @biospharms I was on your channel earlier. That tilapia pond with the ducks blew my mind. You need to produce more of those videos. Do you do consulting?

  • Shelly, S510 is on hold in order to add verbage taking the 600$ 1099 crap out of Obamacare. Their Evil plan is to bribe other more ignorant senators to sign it due to this added earmark. Small farmers and organic gardeners pack your bags. Biospharms could use more good people. Visit our channel.

  • we are small farmers and still goin strong. no one will ever take our family farm.

  • Small farming in the US is too dangerous. However starving to death in the coming collapse would be worse. Biospharm communities are developing in central America. Sustainable micro farms off the grid and in a bartering community. Have an option that can save the lives of your famalies and look into a Biospharm for your famalies sake. Shelly has great videos and tells the truth so add them all up and we are screwed. Join us in safety and watch your food grow from your hammoch. Biospharms YT chan

  • What about this new "food safety bill" that may bring an end to small farmers?

  • You are the best, I love all of your videos

  • correction missy, not YOUR government, it's THEIR government. They make the decisions for themselves to better themselves not YOU ;)

  • You are big boned. You need to lose weight and pop some ephedrine with aspirin and caffeine and get on the GH so that your chin grows long

  • Thx for the upload as this information is CRITICAL to survival as monsatan has wanted to O.W.N. all seed for several decades and set out long ago to buy up all heirloom seeds-etc.,Harassing community farmers daily-also infiltrating other countries with strains NOT COPYRIGHTED so they can then copyright a Native plant as their OWN. All tied to RFID and all CONtrol allocated to them-monsatan bought blackwater, now called Xe-militant foreshadowing-dangerous transgenic food alter DNA-frankenfoods

  • "micro chipping" ? ? ?  are you sure? Could you point me to the section of the bill that contains that language?

    It isn't because they are growing 'great organic foods'

    (and it certainly doesn't have anything to do with some pending legislation.)

    ... it is because they are violating local zoning and business regulations.

    Les

  • The government plan is that no food goes without their poisons. All animals fish have to be treated with growth hormones. All organic food are not allowed and replaced with gmo crops and crops that use chemicals. The small farms and food producers being closed down to make the unemployment figures even higher. This is illegal they are messing with mother nature and God. We need to get rid of these unfair politicians and gov officials and laws they come up with. We need to fight b4 its to late

  • @clinttidan - you are making all that up.

    Les

  • @CouldNotCareLes Its not my job to prove to u the evidence is out there. Its up to u to prove me wrong and do ur research to tell me otherwise. Instead of just adding ur comment without doing the research to prove my comment was invalid. All animals will have to be chipped and fed growth hormones. All fruit and veg will have to be GM and fed with chemical fertilisers and wahtever else they put in there. This is happening in america and i dont see all the other countries following them

  • @clinttidan - Oh, "research."

    You mean, "watch Youtube videos."

    You mean "Google loaded keywords."

    None of what you are saying is proposed in any of the subject legislation.

    Go to Govtrack dot us and read the actual proposed legislation.

    Leave fanatic opinion out of the debate, it makes it difficult to understand the issues.

    Les

  • @CouldNotCareLes the facts are there and not on youtube videos real evidence. Banning the growing and selling of organic produce is fact. As a result of this organic farmers and organic foodstores will lose their business fact. Why if it is not fact why cant people grow or sell organic produce.

  • @clinttidan - people can and will grow organic produce.

    Nothing in the proposed legislation would prohibit that.

    The administrative tasks required to comply with this innocuous policy is the same as the USDA and EPA requirements of today ... any responsible producer is already doing this.

    Have you ever been in a field?

    Les

  • @CouldNotCareLes - You are an idiot. yes micro chipping all cattle is there just as she states. Yes they are raiding small farmers that grow great organic foods unless they pay them off. Oh no, is our goivernemnt a criminal,,, The simple answer is yes. We do not need protection from our selves.

  • @Engineer245 - "We do not need protection from our selves.

    No, but you do need protection from the innocent looking opportunist who will spray his sweet corn with insecticides, herbicides and fungicides all summer and then have his daughters sell it to you at the roadside by the end of his driveway for your summer grill-out.

    Oh, no ... that never happens.

    Les

  • You are so FREAKING HOT!

  • I just bought thousands of heirloom seeds i will grow my own next year.If i have to to it indorrs and hydoponics i will.Had to before with other stuff lol.

  • If you reduce regulation, Monsanto would increase influence and power even more than what they are currently enjoying. The answer is simple: Barr any company from influencing elections (get rid of lobbying for example) and get involved with your local politician and ask him the hard questions. Don't be stupid, you are only playing into their hands by getting rid of government. This "libertarian" ideal is a farce, a thinly veiled disguise for anarchy where only the "might" rules...

  • The 'thumbs-up' on deskset24's post show that people do know understand how a crop is grown.

    Would you please consider that someone who had grown crops for a living for over 25 years might have a clearer understanding of these issues than someone who knows nothing other than what he's read online?

    Les

  • Thank you. The whole nation should see this.

  • WHO IS GLENN BECK ???

    bythetwilight . net

  • Small farms are going to be illegal in the future because they are unregulated and not in a scientifically controlled mass produced robotic environment. Small farms are dangerous!!!!.......I can see it now.....

  • i've got sum seed for her patch, but her field needs to be plowed first. i wonder if her plot is mowed or if its run wild. either way i'm a poor ole farm hand that would like to get to work right away.

  • you should do a field test at wall-mart.Interview the mass zombie population of America and find out if they care.My guess would be no but it would be fun to watch.Or better yet have them sign a pettition to mutate all foods making them 80% cheaper but also making you sick.I bet they go for it ...

  • @vagabonddom - the fact that they are at WalMart speaks volumes about their lack of caring.

    Face it ... folks want cheap food that is available on a whim and is mostly or totally prepared when they buy it.

    Our food delivery system designed around GMO corn meets that need.

    You get what you ask for.

    Les

  • too bad not more men and women are as informed as she is .

  • historycommons an organization (a collection of news items about the case as it happened)

    Youtube won't let me post the source

  • @CouldNotCareLes Seriously - I'll try not to sound stupid asking a dumb question, but, it's better to risk looking like a fool than actually be one: I thought RoundUp is a PESTICIDE, not the seed itself. Why would the seeds be in the pesticide?

    Therefore, I don't see how a farmer could get Monsanto's seeds on the farmer's property unless Monsanto placed them there - deliberately or carelessly - Monsanto is still responsible for the consequences of their patent.

  • @deskset24 - A farmer would not spray his crop with RoundUp unless he knew it contained the RoundUp ready gene.

    Since he sprayed RoundUp, we can only assume he knew the crop was RoundUp Ready ... but he testified (in Canada's Supreme Court) that he did not know that.

    Either he is uber-stupid (killing a growing crop) or he is lying.

    Les

  • It's just part (but a VERY important part) of an ongoing plan that's been in the works for 100 yrs or more for the ultimate goal of world control. There won't be nations, just regions. Once you become aware of it - you will recognize it everywhere. The only way to stop it would be for the MASSES to do something. And since the MASSES are ignorant &/or ill informed + too busy toiling in DEBT - by the time it becomes OBVIOUS to EVERYONE - it'll be too late. Well maybe not, I hope not. TY for Info

  • I have an idea, lets talk about it for a real long time, that will help for sure. Why should you be reading from queue cards to make a point when the ones doing this are taking action to make theirs?????? Talk is cheap, people want an end to this they need to fight, not talk because i have news for you, Its not going to stop until they have it all and that will just be the beginning. This country belongs to the people not the banks.

  • I wouldn't eat GMO foods but I would eat you.

  • obama is a fascist!

  • @MrBlimbo Obama is nothing. He doesn't run shit. He's just a sappling of a sprawling FOREST.

  • Shelly, Awesome videos, you know MUCH about the shady things that are taking place in our system in America. As an avid researcher myself and a very enlightened individual when it comes to the rape of this country by our own government and corporations, good to see another warrior out there spreading the word!

    — Brian

  • How can they force me to buy their seed when there are so many other companies out there competing with them.

    Have you seed the new Syngenta Agrisure line? Eight new genes in one Hybrid!

    Resistance to 14 insect pests as well as fungus and mold.

    availiable in glyphosate and glufosinate tolerant varieties.

    About 1/10th of the seed I buy is from a Monsanto company.

    If I didn't want to buy it, there's nothing they could do.

  • @CouldNotCareLes What are you talking about, Monsanto has you buy the balls and you don't even know it lol..ever think that just maybe your seeds from the other suppliers are coming from MONSANTO? Not to mention that your seeds and plants can still be contaminated by the seeds from Monsanto..they have mastered GMO and they are using these new technologies to the fullest extent they can so they can monopolize the agriculture of the world, not, just here in America.

  • @unoitaliano - Sure, the glyphosate tolerant gene line comes from Monsanto ... but that patent is up next year, there will be dozens of branded and generic sources for that technology. Also, the glufosinate tolerant genetics are alot the same and that is a Bayer product.

    The real important innovations have to do with insect resistant corn hybrids. Everyone knows that the DuPont and Monsanto hybrids are neck and neck ... but Syngenta has the best corn genetics.

    Les

  • @unoitaliano "Not to mention that your seeds and plants can still be contaminated by the seeds from Monsanto."

    * * * * * * * *

    What are you talking about? Contaminated? ... so what?

    Before you start telling be about Schmeiser, Reinhart, Rousch or Runyon ... please do us all a favor and try to find an intellectual property case from the last 5 or so years.

    This is a non-issue to farmers and anyone who knows farming.

    Les

  • @CouldNotCareLes Monsanto's bullshit lawsuits are just another example of big government interference in individual property rights. Nobody has to listen to these bullshit lawsuits.

  • @deskset24 - there were 144 lawsuits, and they were all about a decade ago.

    This doesn't happen today because the farmers who were stupid enough to try it got caught (turned in by their neighbors.)

    Les

  • I have tremendous respect for America' s food and dairy farmers and i don't want monsanto or other beaureucratic orginization telling me what to eat or putting anything in my food that was not there to begin with. So with that said what can be done to protect America's greatest resource our farmers?

  • @whisperingdeath308 "what can be done to protect America's greatest resource our farmers?"

    Our farmers rely on technology to meet the ever growing demand for ag commodities. If you want to protect America's greatest resource, leave companies like Monsanto alone.

    As long as you buy prepared and/or packaged foods, you support GMOs.

  • @CouldNotCareLes Only when Monsanto leaves small farmers alone. I have nothing against GMOs, but I DO support property rights, and I DO have something against terrorism = Monsanto going onto farmers' properties and threatening them with illegal bogus lawsuits. Nobody has to listen to those lawsuits, because, like you say, everyone should be left alone. And it is 100% legal for anyone to kill anyone who tries to step onto those farmers' property without their permission.

  • @deskset24 - Where are they? I don't see or hear of anyone being threatened or sued lately. There are a dozen or so well known cases from the late 1990's, and the 'detectives' were acting on leads from the farmer/neighbors of the thieves.

    The idea that there is a team of Monsanto operatives roaming the countryside trespassing and threatening is an internet myth.

    Les

  • @CouldNotCareLes And where is there any scientific proof that any of these small farmers did anything illegal? Show me the peer-reviewed journals or the computations & computer models from NASA. Your & Monsanto's claims of patent infringement are a myth. Patents are a joke, anyway. The patent office will allow someone to patent putting a banana in a shoe, just because the idea combines two things in a novel way, even if the patent owner never created or owned those two things.

  • @deskset24 - scientific proof ... like 98% genetically pure with Monsanto's gene?

    The most damning evidence in the Schmeiser case is that Percy did not purchase the Muster and Assure herbicides that he normally used and instead bought 720 liters of RoundUp ... then he testified in several courts that he didn't know his seed contained the gene.

    What? ... did he intend on killing his entire crop that year?

    Les

  • @CouldNotCareLes That doesn't prove cause and effect. I'm talking about scientifically proving that Percy CAUSED anything illegal to happen, that Percy CAUSED any harm whatsoever to Monsanto.

    And there is 100% scientific proof that Percy's land is his own and that he has a deed and that he has the right to do on his land with whatever anyone leaves on his land.

    Now, I can see that the only way to get dumbfucks like you to address this issue is by shoving a gun down your throat.

  • @CouldNotCareLes Do you have corroborative proof that

    1) Percy bought this herbicide RoundUp, and

    2) that that was the cause of Percy's seeds getting contaminated?

    (suggesting, as you imply, that Percy was responsible for his own fields getting contaminated)

    Does RoundUp have a warning on the label that warns customers that anything RoundUp touches is now property of Monsanto?

  • @deskset24 - (a collection of news items about the case as it happened) in 1997 and 1998 Schmeiser’s farm hand Carlyle Moritz told him that Schmeiser had sprayed his fields with Roundup after having seeded his fields with Roundup Ready Canola

    The point is that he delibrately propegated the seeds he knew had the gene. There was (and still is) a benefit from growing these plants to the tune of around $40/acre.

  • @deskset24 - proof?

    1) the recipts were entered into each court's record.

    2) Roundup was not the cause of 'contamination.' That you would ask that question shows how little you understand about this case and how clueless you are about farming.

    No, there is no warning on the label because no one claims ownership of everything it touches, that is just stupid.

    Les

  • @CouldNotCareLes Your & Monsanto's claims that the farmers are thieves are just as crazy as global warming deniers. They are on THEIR property.

    Monsanto has NO right to use those farmers' names in a lawsuit, because those farmers' names are copyrighted and are allowed to be used only by the farmers.

    Since you & Monsanto support vandalism so much, I have the legal right to go onto Monsanto property and blow it up and then sue Monsanto for stealing my bomb because they found it on their land.

  • @CouldNotCareLes Do you think that maybe a hands on approach could help? There are a lot of unemployed people in the US. Maybe more people working the land could reduce the need for technology. Food keeps getting more and more expensive any way. Employ more, less tech, less GMOs.

    Being a fan of nature and / or God, genetically modified just sounds bad to me.

  • @Malafede122112 - that's the only way any non-commercial food production system would work. Folks don't realize how HUGE this is. The trouble is, the average American (much less the average unemployed American) would lop his foot off or something within a week and the only outcome would be a lawsuit against the farmer.

    We aren't talking about tomatoes and apples here ... we are talking about 80% of what is in the grocery store.

  • i stared at this video to the end and didn't hear a word that was said :oP

  • MONSANTO=DEATH FOR ALL LIFE'S BREATH,WAKAYA

  • How many jackboots are you willing to lose to enforce this STUPID law

  • Nice eyes!

  • You are mis-informed and paranoid.

    Monsanto does not support any of these bills.

    Monsanto's customers are farmers, and they (yes, even the small farmers) are very loyal customers.

    What would Monsanto gain by putting their customers out of business?

    Les

  • @CouldNotCareLes Monsanto will have customers regardless. The land will still get farmed. The real question is who in Big Agra wins?

    Seen this before, the feds create bureaucracy to "protect" us & the unintended consequence is the small operator can't keep up with the bureaucracy, finally sells out to some "Big" corp. with K-street support and operations to "Game" the bureaucracy. Net result, bigger government, bigger corporations at the consumers cost. Oh, and the food isn't any better.
