Monsanto Protection Act

I was speaking yesterday to a man about Monsanto and he told me that "Obama is a criminal" for signing the Monsanto Protection Act, which I didn't know anything about. I did a little research and found an article about it. Here is the link. [link:http://www.globalresearch.ca/monsanto-protection-act-signed-by-obama-gmo-bill-written-by-monsanto-signed-into-law/5329388|. | Well I tried to post a link - didn't work.

It says that the White House received a petition with 250,000 signatures on it to not sign the bill, which he signed anyway. Was it one of those "poison pills" put into a must sign bill. I don't understand why he would sign this. It completely protects Monsanto from any harm caused to people or the environment now and forever. Shit!!!!!
