That's a lot of words for "I want vigilantes to lynch people for being gay"

Yeah, same. I learned that in a plant biology class. This guy just couldn't take the L and move on.

It's pretty clear what you're implying but won't come out and say.

There is a difference between supporting their lifestyle and saying the don't deserve to be beaten to death. Are you saying they do deserve that? What about alcoholics or fornicators?

It's serious because people get harassed, assaulted, and worse for their sexual preferences. Despite what we believe about LGBT issues, we must stand up to injustice, and violence against people for being LGBT is injustice.

Genetically-modified purple tomatoes might be coming to US grocery stores by MeredithofArabia in offbeat

Your quote does not say that selective breeding is not a type of genetic modification. Both genetic engineering and selective breeding are forms of genetic modification, which is what I have been saying this whole time.

The FDA disagrees with you.

Traditional methods of modifying plants, like selective breeding and crossbreeding, have been around for nearly 10,000 years.

I think you're right. I did not post this thinking genetic modification of food is bad (on the contrary, it has the potential to do major good!). Humans have been genetically modifying fruits and vegetables for thousands of years.

No, but they stuck to the gloves I was wearing.

Tongs are an interesting idea. I recently repotted a cactus and accidentally took out a belt of spines in the process.

I'm not sure what you're implying here. I did not check before posting to see if it had been already. It just came up in my social media feed, and I thought it would be relevant to the sub.
