Pops, selectively breeding a couple of grass species to make a new sugar rich grain, or a hairless guinea pig so you don't get fur in your throat when you BBQ it AZTEC style is nothing like GM these days.
I'm frankly shocked that you would make such an ignorant statement, when they are gene splicing across species which could never be "selectively bred"...try selective breeding Clostridium Botulinum or Funnel Web Spiders with a blade of grass...
He's simply regurgitating the talking points. I've heard the same stuff a thousand times.
