Speaking of genetically modified food

Corn before generations of selective breeding:

Corn today:

We've genetically modified our food for thousands of years; we just didn't know about DNA until after WWII.

True,but there was no way to mix different species.Thru selective breeding you could achieve bigger and more robust plants,when I save seeds I always get them from the most vigorous and productive plant.But I can't cross a rose with a tomato.
That corn just has corn DNA,nothing else.

1.) Putting non-Twitter stuff on Twitter might leave an awkward ellipse.
2.) Someone is going to be on the very second when you post to save it, so even when you correct the mistake it's on a million other websites

Quote:

Today, Gov. Nikki Haley (R-SC) found out what can happen when you try to tweet an Instagram photo. Haley was heralding her state?s passage of an education reform bill that will give more funds to schools in poorer areas when she posted a photo to Instagram, which in turn went out on her official Twitter account.

Utterly false comparison.

For hundreds of years, we used NATURAL methods to make new strains of plants and animals. If nature didn't support the end result, it wasn't viable.

GMOs deliberately tinker with DNA in ways we don't know if nature would allow, and we don't know how they will long-term affect the biosphere.

Many hybrid strains of plants will die off without regular cultivation and maintenance...because they don't grow well or repopulate and maintain their specialized status without intervention. GMOs can actually dominate indigenous crops and contaminate land for hundreds of miles because their traits make them dominant over indigenous plants.
