MONSANTO AND DOW EXPOSE THEIR SELF-RIGHTEOUS INDIGNATION AND SEEK TO OVERRIDE THE VOTE OF THE PEOPLE AND SILENCE THE VOICE OF THE PEOPLE. Monsanto and Dow to Challenge Maui County GMO Farming Ban

From Monsanto:

“We believe this referendum is invalid and contrary to long established state and federal laws that support both the safety and lawful testing and planting of GMO plants. If effective, the referendum will have significant negative consequences for the local economy, Hawaii agriculture and our business on the island. We are committed to ongoing dialogue as we take steps to ask the court to declare that this initiative is legally flawed and cannot be enforced. Monsanto and other allied parties will be joining together in this effort.”

From Dow AgroSciences:

“Dow AgroSciences is confident in the safety of our farming operations on Maui County and the safety of our products that have been reviewed and approved by federal and state agencies. With more than 170 local employees living and working in Molokai and Kauai, we understand the negative impact that this ban would have on the community, the local economy and on agriculture in Hawaii. As a longtime community member, we are proud of our operations and of our contributions to the islands. Dow AgroSciences is committed to an ongoing dialogue concerning these issues. However, we believe that the ban would be illegal, and we intend to protect our legal rights.””

The insanity and vengeful mindset of Monsanto and Dow AgroSciences to pull the trigger to suppress the will of the people evidences the cloud of darkness they have too long operated without effective and required regulation casting adrift food safety and human health.

Maui cannot and will not be bought and sold as you, Monsanto, Dow and others, determine appropriate. You were given a choice and opportunity to participate in the process. You snubbed your noses and gave everyone your attitude of superiority.

The time has come for your accountability. Your broken trust, disrespect to the people and skewed sense of balance have been longstanding. No more!

To enjoin the Moratorium from moving ahead you need to demonstrate irreparable harm. Your profiteering is trumped by food safety and human health.

Keep your guns holstered and your powder dry. You went all in and lost. Move on!
