There is no scientific evidence that GMO foods are harmful to humans.

All modern farmed foods have been modifed by selective breeding. So there is no reason to believe that the mere act of modifing a genome should add risk
I think it`s not always so easy to find out if GMO food is harmful. F.e: long time effects. Another thing is: maybe GMO food isn`t really harmful, but isn`t healthy either. I don`t why you discuss this topic; if it`s ethical discourse then I would say, that it`s not for sure, to be for GMO food.
The claim "exports" the burden of proof and thus responsibility. If one engages in a risky (potentially harmful in any way) activity - in such delicate areas as food - one holds the responsibility of proving that the activity is not harmful, risks are minimal etc.
