    OK, so avoid things sprayed with pesticides. Where do GMOs come in?

    Why should everyone who reads your comment do research they are probably not qualified to do when apparently you already have? Or are you just ignorant and spouting your beliefs without proof? Your comment is completely useless as-is.

    Believe it or not, sometimes words are used to mean something other than the singular fixed definition that you've decided is the only one that exists.

    That's kind of exactly the same as using a new chemical every time the old one becomes ineffective. With a genetically diverse crop and natural "weed predators" that have evolved alongside each other for centuries there is little need for such intensive manual management. Of course, environments change and such but in general evolution is pretty good at its job.

    Humans have evolved alongside the food that we eat; 2000+ years of "that shit's poison; this isn't" tends to be reliable (I haven't died yet and have only gotten food poisoning from spoiled meat just for example). When it comes to foods producing toxins/etc. that they don't normally I want to know (in lieu of thousands of years of eatin') about the amount, the type (and whether it's in other foods), toxicology studies in mice at least if not humans, and possible interactions with other chemicals in the plants.

    Testing something doesn't make it safe, nor is testing perfect, nor is all testing transparent and easily interpreted. And plenty of non-GMO foods have indeed been scientifically studied, don't be ridiculous.

    No one is demanding death. What they are demanding is a world in which such death is merely possible, as are a great many other things. And it's still possible in a world where gun control is much stricter. You're hallucinating about something that cannot happen and then arguing for it by accusing others of wanting dead children; pretty much the height of fallacious and unproductive discourse right there.

    Well, some people might. Aren't theatres now required to be designed with just that scenario in mind (so people can escape without their rate of movement being limited such that they're likely to be trampled, etc.)? I agree with your conclusion, just not with that argument.

    The sad fact is that violent crime is sort of irrelevant to this, IMO. Mental health care needs to be improved regardless.

    The impression I had was that you can certainly infer (if not recover) data from magnetic media since it's essentially an analog medium; the magnetic charge has a variance and overwriting a 1 with a 0 will result in a different charge than a bit that never had a 1 written to it at all. Your statement is certainly correct for flash media.
