I think anyone who is for GMO in its current regulatory climate should no longer be able to go to the doctor and be prescribed medication that has gone through the normal animal studies then three human clinical trials. Since they are so trusting of biotechnology companies and their ability to put out product with no human health effects, they should have to take the medications that have only gone through animal studies since that no doubt means they're safe. They're comfortable with all of us being guinea pigs when it comes to GMO biocides so they should have to step up and be the guinea pigs when it comes to prescription medication biocides. "Show me one death attributed to taking Thalidomide! That means it's safe! You're pregnant? Don't worry, nobody has died from it. You'll be fine!"
Actually, let's just do away with prescription medication clinical trials in humans altogether. If GMO biocides don't need to go through human clinical trials, then I'm sure medicinal biocides don't either since they're both just biocidal compounds. The ethics of pharmaceutical and biotech companies can be trusted and I'm sure they'll never make a scientific mistake because they're scientists and all.
