Sen Ruderman, where is the proof

[peteadams]

Regarding all the demand for testing, remember what the anti-GMO people are asking for: that testing discovers no problem with GMO crops. They will claim there's never enough testing because they are invoking the fallacy of proving the negative. If test x doesn't find a problem, then do test y; if that doesn't find a problem, you obviously missed test z; and on and on.

And of course there has been extensive, scientifically validated testing as well as real world experience over the past several decades. Here's another post of the link to the large review study recently released:

This is why Senator Ruderman will be having a tough time finding his proof, because the well-verified evidence is going the other way. And also why the county council should not be passing and why the mayor should not be rolling over and signing anti-agriculture, anti-science legislation. Some day the Big Island may be remembered in the same way Tennessee is remembered for the Scopes trial.
