Note that the 3 videos in this series are not discussing the safety of genetically modified crops, rather they focus on Monsanto's apparent attempt to monopolize the seed supply.

Here are the next two videos in this series.

Part 2

Part 3

(Checkout the clip in Part 3 of a Monsanto goon trying to stop someone from taking a picture of a Monsanto sign from a public sidewalk located outside Monsanto's Missouri headquarters and asking him to produce ID.)

For more context, read about Percy Schmeiser, the Canadian farmer, hounded by Monsanto when his crops, through no fault of his own, were polluted by Monsanto's genetically modified canola here: http://www.percyschmeiser.com/

In my case, I never had anything to do with Monsanto, outside of buying chemicals. I never signed a contract. If I would go to St. Louis and contaminate their plots--destroy what they have worked on for 40 years--I think I would be put in jail and the key thrown away," Percy Schmeiser..

See how Monsanto was able to keep a report by two investigative journalists on potential negative health effects of Monsanto's bovine growth hormone product, Posilac, from going to air: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eZkDikRLQrw
