Marin School District Goes GMO-Free, Fails Basic Science

13. Way to miss the point

Others have addressed the quality of the info you linked to, so I won't bother with that.

The point I'm making is about anti-GMO people trying to pretend that a label like "Contains GMOs" is purely informative, and that putting such labels in place is nothing but a "right to know" issue.

It's clear that such labels will be perceived as warning labels, as indicative of danger, as the government conceding to and promoting the idea the GMOs are dangerous.

So OF COURSE people selling GMO products don't want such labels to be required. Regardless of whether GMOs are bad or not (which is a stupid way of looking at the issue anyway -- each and every different GMO needs to be evaluated independently because there's no reason any one GMO would share any common risks with another) such labels make them look bad.

If that's your goal, to make all GMOs look bad, at least admit it. Don't play a disingenuous game of pretending it's nothing more than "providing information" so that consumers can make "informed decisions".
