What is your purpose of this thread? Seems like you're just stirring the pot
The purpose of this thread is to illustrate the fact that farmers do not fear lawsuits/Monsanto.
I guess there are backyard gardeners who fear lawsuits, they sure support the wild stories we hear about farmers losing their farms and they will support efforts to stop family farmers from making wise decisions when choosing inputs for their cropping enterprises.
I don't know why backyard gardeners would be concerned, and it annoys me that they are so closed minded that they won't see that persecuting this one company won't make a bit of difference anywhere. Take Monsanto out of the picture entirely, nothing will have changed. There is a HUGE threat to sustainable/local agriculture, but it's not Monsanto.
Short sighted sheep duisguised as gardeners (calling themselves farmers) fear lawsuits. They also have another dozen reasons (none of them based on fact) for hating this evil company. Sometimes I think they are being paid and have been sent here by the food manufacturing industry to draw attention away from the very obvious crimes beomg committed.
Please, let's hear some breaking news about farmers losing their farms to Monsanto.
In all my years of farming, I've never come across another farmer in any Monsanto litigation.
I don't know anyone afraid of them either.
Are we farmers just not as informed as the other members?
I remember the cases from the 1990s (that was before anyone out here had internet.)
They were all over the papers and radio/TV.
Farmers talked about them in the coffee shop and at the feed store.
Some among us had already been trying the new technology, we were all very interested.
If something like this had happened recently, it would be HUGE news.
If this kind of thing happened with any kind of regularity, Monsanto would go broke for lack of customers.
