It is not conclusively known if GMOs do or do not cause cancer.To this date, February 8, 2014, there is no known evidence that GMOs cause cancer. There is some anecdotal evidence that eating GMOs may cause other health issues, such as allergies and problems to the digestive tract.
No, they do not. There are no laws that protect consumers if they do not want to eat GMOs. The consumers' only choice if they wish to avoid eating GMOs is to stop eating lots of foods that may contain GMOs.
No one knows the long lasting effects of GMOs, though some say people have been eating them since 1996 and that is evidence that there are no long lasting negative effects of GMOs. Since long term studies on rats that showed serious effects of GMO consumption have been discredited, and GMO foods are not labeled, it is hard to determine what the long lasting effects of GMOs are. There is evidence, though it is not accepted as valid by some, that people who are put on a non GMO diet have improved health.
Yes, the Non-GMO Project is good, but it is a bit misleading. Though they test each product before the product is listed as non-GMO, many people may not realize that foods do not have to be totally free of GMOs to be listed. The foods may contain a certain amount of GMOs, which means that any product on the list may not be totally free of GMOs.
There are definitely concerns; how valid these concerns are is a matter of some debate.
People don't hate GMOs. Those who oppose GMOs being used commercially at this point in their development are called anti-GMOers and fearmongers, among other names.

As far as is known, GMOs do not cause mental disabilities, though they are thought to affect health in other ways.
GMOs are plants or animals that have been genetically engineered with DNA from bacteria, viruses or other plants and animals. These experimental combinations of genes do not occur in nature.
There is no known information that indicates GMOs are easier to grown than non-GMOs.
There is no evidence that GMOs have improved food production.

Genetic engineering can be done with animals, produce and bacteria. Organisms that undergo genetic engineering are called genetically modified organisms. Some of the earliest GMOs were bacteria and mice. Food products, glofish and zebra fish are some of the more recent GMOs.
