Also be aware that people who OPPOSE GMO or something else will often do so blindly and out of ignorance. The BT insect killer is natural--do people who oppose BMO BT avoid any food where natural BT chemicals are present? Probably not.
Monsanto does not own soybeans, only a strain of GMO/Roundup/Glyphosate plant heirloom soybeans and use mechanical weed control means. I grew up in the 60's, working row crop (corn/milo/soybeans) with a cultivator until it was too tall to go through. Once a crop was tall enough to completely shade the ground, it normally stayed reasonably weed free. Not always.
Bacteria share DNA back and forth on a continual basis. They also have been seed to share DNA with plants, although I cannot quote a peer reviewed study for either of these claims.
Plants have evolved chemical means to kill insects that feed on them, and insects have evolved means to neutralize, evade, and even sequester those "insecticide" chemicals.
