If one were to compare a Negro to a gorilla even as the Professional Blacks are doing with this incident, well..Negroes are Language Privileged.
“Killing an endangered gorilla at a zoo for a white boy’s safety is white privilege. If the boy was black they would’ve found a tranquilizer.”
- Twitter post by someone named “Hood Intellect” ...lol”
Maybe everyone would have just walked away ? Or maybe a black kid would have shot it themselves.
Did anyone even THINK of pouring some Arizona and skittles in the exhibit ? What about playing a Beyonce song ? I guess what this “Hood Intellect” guy is saying is that had the zookeepers known more about the black culture, they would have more options.
Maybe black history month needs more than a month?
Come on. Educating one’s children and taking them to the zoo is ‘Acting White’. Since the parents were ‘Acting White’, the color of their skin doesn’t matter. So the White Privilege charge is valid, despite the dark skin.
Yes, I had a friend who was the same way. Heaven help you if you even innocently offered him Brazil nuts.
“Killing an endangered gorilla at a zoo for a white boy’s safety is white privilege. If the boy was black they would’ve found a tranquilizer.”
A tranquilizer would have been worse. First, it would startle the gorilla and would NOT work instantly. That gorilla would have dragged that kid all over the place inflicting harm on the kid.
Second, had the zoo not done anything, the blacks would be jumping up and down at the “intentional” harm done to a BLACK child, and they’d wonder why the gorilla wasn’t shot.
White privilege on one hand, condemnation for failing to protect a black kid on the other.
You cannot win with liberals.
And it’s not complicated. No fancy installing instrux and queries about whether you want to “make changes to your computer.” Simple and effective.
Didn’t take long for this to be politicized, like everything else in this country.
Actually, that might have done the trick. "What's this? An all-you-can-eat fruit buffet? This hairless baby gorilla isn't *that* interesting."
What the hell is wrong with Brazil nuts? Was he Brazilian?
“So why all the outcry from the Black Community?????”
‘cuz that gorilla would not look too out of place at the Walmart if he was wearing some baggy pants. Why else?
ROFL!!!
Maybe they pulled it after they discovered the kid is black.
“Every time I go to Breitbart my computer locks up.”
So I’m not the only one.
It is sop for zoos. Animals can be replaced, children cannot be replaced.
Brazil nuts had a nickname...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brazil_nut, see the last paragraph in the Nomenclature section.
#BlackGorillaLivesMatter coming next
IIRC, the gorilla brought the child over to the cage door, and the child was rescued from there.
I don't even waste my time with Breitbart anymore. It's nothing but click bait.
