        I believe GM plants/foods are considered intellectual property by the likes of Monsanto, with all the rights and restrictions that implies -- nm - con_carne Sep 6, 08:21 3
        
        yes and if you unwillingly and unknowingly have GMP crops in your area Monsanto will demand you pay them compensation -- nm - Danedukenuuk Sep 6, 08:22 2
        
        Which is problematic, since crops are usually outdoors, and pollen and seeds get carried around naturally by nature. -- nm - con_carne Sep 6, 08:46 1
        
        yes but now you can make monsanto pay for damages it's patented gene crops do to other farmers - Danedukenuuk Sep 6, 08:48
        
        ofcourse it does - Danedukenuuk Sep 6, 08:19 1
        
        Your hysterical anti-GMO post doesn't really back up your claim that it has nothing to do with anti-GMO hysteria. -- nm - Ender Sep 6, 08:48
