There's nothing inherently wrong with GMOs Golden Rice could be out there saving lives.

Unfortunately "roundup ready" just makes farmers dump more pesticide on the crops and some of that pesticides makes it into food. This is the threat. Not the GMO status itself.

Problem is that once you've genetically modified anything, the results don't immediately appear. You might have a full couple of generations before bad effects occurred. In other words, 100 years. By then, it's a bit too late.

We've been genetically modifying stuff for thousands of years. Just look at dogs. Plenty of them have health problems but it's not like they're a roving menace chewing people's faces off.
