It's impossible to deem a technology as 'safe' if it's long-term effects on the health haven't been adequately studied. GMO tech in theory should be fine for human health, but right now the technology is a bit crude. Genes are inserted into the genome of plants at random, so unexpected things are bound to happen (plants could turn out less nutritional, etc..). An example of this would be that field mice reject GMO wheat entirely when given a choice between that and the normal cultivars.

People who claim to know that GMO is 100% safe are delusional.
