I say "how in the world" as a double entendre. Monsanto stretches across so many borders that one wonders if there is anyone big enough to prosecute them.

DJ, I never would have expected you to post a link from RT. There may be hope for you after all!

Maybe all the acidic bottled water we drink is protecting us from Glyphosate(?).

How could Roundup be bad for you?
They spray it on all the food crops so it must be safe. Has to be all those pesky regulations going on in the foreign countries.

Maybe we should avoid false equivalences.

The false equivalency comes from the fact that the OP linked to the RT for a subject matter that was entirely unrelated to the Russian agenda. I haven't suggested that linking to RT in support of a position that one takes, proves that one is a "commie." I wouldn't suggest that it is wrong to be a so************************t. I would suggest that it is reasonable to draw a distinction between linking to a site to provide information and linking to a site to advance an agenda. Your comment did not go over my head. I simply stated that the point you were making was a false equivalency.

D-Ray
