I haven't even played this shit for a year, but honestly, this discussion drove me up a wall.

WE GET IT. You dont like GMOs. You want to know what products contain them.

We're talking about fucking PROP 37 and the LANGUAGE contained in that specific prop. Get off you're fucking hippy high horse and READ what people are trying to tell you. Many of whom AGREE with your stance on the labels.

In addition to the potential damage to "mom and pop" shops, Prop 37 would have opened the door to all sorts of frivilous (fuck you spelling) lawsuits, akin to the ADA bullshit suits. Prop 37 allowed ANYONE to file a suit against any company alleged of failing to meet the new regulation, regardless if that party received damages in any sort of way. This can be extrapolated to mean anyone could sue a company without even needing PROOF of a violation. The burden is now on business to defend themselves against baseless accusations that caused no harm, EVEN IF THE COMPANY DID EVERYTHING BY THE LAW.

We don't need any more fucking bullshit suits. They either A, clog up an already fucked court system, or B, companies settle out of court to avoid court costs of defending themselves, which encourages more bullshit suits.

It was a poorly written proposition. Good intention, we all love transparency, but fucking READ what the shit says before you whip out your graphs and argue something that no one was even talking about.

Fuck.
