I'm not equating GMOs and poison. I'm equating pesticides and poison. A plant that doesn't need pesticides is just a plant that produces them internally.

And in fact, the effort to breed naturally pest-resistant crops keeps running into the problem that pest-resistant crops are also human-resistant. It's all the same thing from the plant's perspective.

Sorry, I think I misread/misunderstood your original post or inferred something from it that wasn't there. Often I get frustrated with the extreme anti-GMO crowd, and likely let that emotion cloud my response to you.
