Power of Monsanto: Shareholder Meeting Had More Cops, Arrests Than Votes for GMO Labels

(Before It's News)

At a January 2014 Monsanto shareholders’ meeting, two rather disturbing trends took place (though, admittedly, neither was entirely surprising).

First, it was readily apparent that the company has no intention of taking steps to label genetically modified (GM) foods, and any such proposals by shareholders do not stand a chance of being voted through.

Second, Monsanto’s power doesn’t end outside of their boardroom… at least two dozen on-duty police were on hand to “control” the 30-40 peaceful protestors in favor of mandatory GM labeling. As Daily RFT reported:

“…two things were clear: mandatory GMO labels aren’t happening any time soon, and the police have Monsanto’s back.”
