Anti-GMO, it’s the only way to go | Letters

I am very concerned about GMO foods and having a safe food supply.

If you do not want to know the dangers, think you know it is safe or think the FDA/government is protecting you, then don’t watch the movie online: http://geneticroulettemovie.com/ showing until the end of October for free on “The Institute for Responsible Technology” website.

If you are curious about what all the flap is, then please do watch the movie and educate yourself, friends and family before you vote on the upcoming Initiative 2012-4. The movie was shown publicly at the Grange this past week, hosted by Gallery 9, and it opened up the eyes of many there.

“After two decades, physicians and scientists have uncovered a grave trend. The same serious health problems found in lab animals, livestock, and pets that have been fed GMO foods are now on the rise in the US population.

And when people and animals stop eating genetically modified organisms (GMOs), their health improves. This seminal documentary provides compelling evidence to help explain the deteriorating health of Americans, especially among children, and offers a recipe for protecting ourselves and our future.”

Please vote on this important issue in our county elections coming up next month and write to your politicians to demand that all GMO foods are labeled so that we can choose to protect our health or not…blessings.
