Russell Ruderman Defends the Haters of Technology

From A'ole GMO Means A'ole Aloha  March 16, 2014

Once again, the anti-GMO club is up in arms with the latest Star Advertiser article that was headline news regarding the lawsuit by papaya farmers.  One of which is a State Senator, Russell Ruderman, who wrote a letter to the editor in today’s paper (subscription needed).

Here’s a statement that he made in his letter to the editor…

For all of us involved in the GMO issue, it is clear that an individual farmer is an inappropriate target for GMO anger, and no one advocates vandalism.

Senator Ruderman must not live here in Hawaii because he clearly does not know about the threats that have been made by the very activists he supports.  Just look what has been said here in the Hawaii social media scene.

Of course he aligns with these folks too…

If you saw all of this on the social media, as a farmer, what would you think?  Ruderman apparently thinks that there is nothing to worry about!  We all know that he’s participating in the misinformation campaign himself.
