Again, Robguz, I do agree with you, or more aptly your situation/reason for GMin' Bananas. To prevent extinction. I don't agree with it completely, but I do side more so with that use of GM, than opposed to the super-pesticide resistant, or pesticide producing, and especially the animal DNA Splicing. Thanks for your input, it makes much sense.

Thanks Aaron, that's why I think an outright ban is really not the way to go. There are quite big differences in the use of GM. Some seems more disturbing, and some seem totally innocuous. The complexity of the issue and the use of of GM in various ways argues that addressing the issue requires the same degree of detail and complexity and should be addressed on a case by case basis. Even then, probably not at the county government level where it probably won't hold up in court anyway. Thanks for your consideration of reasonable argument. There are certainly ways to have nuanced views about GM crops without being a supporter of big agribusiness companies or their practices.
