    A California man dying of cancer just appeared in court, claiming a popular weed killer made him sick. Dewayne Johnson is suing Monsanto, the maker of Roundup. He blames his 2014 cancer diagnosis on Roundup’s active ingredient, glyphosate:pic.twitter.com/m0J2JctGm8

        @Bayer @Bayer4Crops Hey Bayer / Monsanto- 15 years ago I knew that roundup caused grave illness-many African Violet growers were using it like water for thrips- and getting extremely ill. YOU ARE SICK PEOPLE Monsanto/Bayer.

        You are right- I am so sorry- They were using it- and they did have thrips in greenhouses, and they were getting ill. I will check my old records- it was "the thing" to use for AV growers, and they were getting very ill.

        I use organic methods-which is why it's in my old records-again, sorry to gardeners, not to Bayer / Monsanto

        If I remember correctly Roundup is very weed-targeted.

        No, unfortunately you have a lot of facts incorrect. Roundup kills almost every plant, unless it has a gene that enables the plant to withstand the toxin. The toxin works on a biochemical pathway found only in plants, not animals, which is why it’s the safest herbicide known.

        I have to thank you for tweeting- I have epilepsy and had a seizure the other day. For me to confuse two names like that is something I really needed to know. It's from the seizure.

        No worries. I’ve got qualifications too, and roundup is damn good stuff when you absolutely need an herbicide. IMO it is overused, but nothing beats it for effectiveness and low-tox. One tool.

        I know many farmers who use this stuff and they wear protective garments when spraying their fields. Many of the ones who didn’t got cancer. Food you buy are sprayed with this. Food farmers feed their animals is sprayed with this.

        The CBS legal expert Kleiman is certainly not a health expert! He is unable to distinguish between the 800 Monsanto studies and the actual scientific experts' studies (IARC/WHO is widely respected as The GOLD standard) cautioning against the use of #glyphosate.

        Even the Rock doesn't have enough funds to battle Monsanto.
