What's scary is that agriculture is staring down an increasing population, global climate change, increasing energy costs, peak phosphorus, increasing pressure on fresh water resources, evolving pests and pathogens, desertification, deforestation, greater demand for animal protein, and agriculture has to take care l that without expanding the amount of land under the plow, and we've got people having not based in science blanket opposition to what will probably go down as the most significant breakthrough in plant improvement since unraveling Mendelian genetics. Now THAT is scary.
Sorry for my premature reply.
I agree with the above quote, right down to "the most significant breakthrough" -->
The topic requires a forum format, a good week to define the various strands of the arguments, a few extraordinarily objective moderators to shuffle the input into proper categories, and another month to agonise through al the permutations.

Do We?
I've transformed plants before. I have no problem eating genetically engineered food. I do it all the time
Yes, well you remind me of those yerkoffs who used to drink DDT on TV. Yes, Im am that old.
It has been found that organisms vary considerably in the minimum viable population, and inherent genetic variability within that population, required for long term sustainability.
The original canary in the mineshaft, the african cheetah suffered from a low variability. Introducing new gametes solved that nicely.
Aplodontia rufa on the other hand seems to do very nicely with less than a loving spoonful.
When the word "Alarmist" appears 14 times in a short news article, there can't be many who don't realise they are reading propaganda rather than news.

But of course, the British and French had gay sex and created Canada, and that did something, I'm not sure what, but they sure like their hockey up there. Hell, they fucking riot when they're behind in the second period".
I'm not sure I appreciate our experimental long winter night inspired epic lustforms being termed "gay", eh?
But then I AM from the anglo side of the Dominion.
Dominion = One of the self-governing nations in the British Commonwealth. Keep that clearly in mind as time goes on. Infidel.
The AKs will be pointing _at_ the Chinese.
The math here is clear.
1 chinaman is never alone.
africans ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
Besides which, when did an african ever manufacture an AK?
Yes I know some Angolans were, they never did it did they.
