the Monsanto bastards know full well there will be litigation for their crimes & this is wonderful for them. Just one of the many who will not ever have to answer for outright criminality, add them to the Wall st. gang, banksters, war profiteers, etc. Nice list that's getting longer & longer.

Still think we live in a democracy? Crime pays, esp. when you can write laws designed by their very nature to protect your crimes. We are no longer a nation of laws, we are USA, Inc.

While some worry about party issues, I think your time would be better spent worrying about the criminality aided and abetted by the hijacked gov't.
