Ironic... after 12 pages I'm still posting easily verifiable facts on the topic, while s/he is still posting personal comments about me. That's more than ridiculous, it's beyond reason...
Here's another bit of fact to chew on... the principle upon which the Maui regulation was overturned by the Court is that the County has no legal authority to pass such regulations, that authority residing instead with the state under the Hawai'i Constitution.
Furthermore, if if the state itself were to pass such a regulation, it would certainly be challenged on the basis that the authority to regulate approvals for cultivation of GMOs and of pesticide use falls to the US government.
Looking strictly at the GMO portion of the law that was struck down, it seems highly unlikely that the anti-science activists pushing this regulation could prove a need for such restrictions to the courts' satisfaction, when the mainstream scientific community overwhelmingly supports the position that these foods are safe.
Ramblings of someone claiming to be omnipotent judge, scientist, and politician in one person. Non-digestable, so sorry.
A sad day indeed for the aina. One of the most beautiful spots on the planet get turned into a toxic waste dump! GMO companies are dousing Hawaiian island with toxic pesticides | Grist Where do people think those toxins are going next? That is right...into the ocean. This is a chemical Fukushima! However you can thank the wonderful democratic leadership, who has run that state forever, for these blessings.

Don't worry - you want to be really scared - do some research on the pesticides they used to use in the Sugar Cane fields - yikes! Think things - like Arsenic.

10-4 There are a multitude of contributions on You Tube about this issue. In regards to Monsanto, DuPont, and Syngenta(who uses chemicals banned in it's native Switzerland) unfortunately the golden rule applies. He who has the gold...rules.
