 bicker join:2007-05-10 Burlington, MA | It isn't that, really: Rather, people simply want an unrebutted platform for their own personal perspective. Some folks clearly cannot accept the fact that there isn't any definitive evidence that shows that the garlic absolutely and positively won't be adversely affected. They want to claim that everything is perfectly safe, that is up until the damage is already done, and then they'll take the side of "the farmer should have known". Essentially, they just want to blame others for everything that they don't like, instead of accepting reality.
Personally, I believe the risks are low enough that I think the farmer should allow it, but that's easy for me to say. I'm not the one that morons would come after with pitchforks if something bad happens to a young child who ate a lot of garlic and mob mentality takes over. |
