Protesters support prop 37
On Monday, Sept. 17, Robinson Ave. was teeming with members of the Women Occupy San Diego (WOSD) in their protest to support Proposition 37.
The proposition, which will be voted upon in this year’s election, is to force companies to label their foods with either “Genetically Modified Organisms (GMO)” or “Non-GMO”.
“What they do is they take these bacteria that are antibiotic-resistant…and pesticide-resistant, so they stuck those genes in soy and into corn which kill the insects and ‘weeds’…but it goes into our bodies as well. So these bacteria are in our guts and essentially doing damage because they are antibiotic-resistant and pesticide-resistant,” Norrie Robbins said, a WOSD member who handles the publicity for group events.
If passed, the proposition will require companies to label their foods appropriately and accurately. It will prohibit labeling of foods as “natural,” force labeling of raw or processed foods if they are intentionally grown with genetic materials changed, and will do so only with the exception of certified organic foods.
