Do you feel strongly about Harambe, the hapless gorilla executed by Cincinnati zoo to protect the life of the four-year old child Isaiah whose stupid, irresponsible parents allowed him to crawl into the gorillas pen?
Well I do too. Especially when you realise at least by some accounts that the gorilla was actually trying to protect the child not kill it.
But I dont think in the outrage stakes any of us can quite compete with the angry black people in social media forums who have been blaming the incident on entrenched white privilege.

Thanks. Never heard of the show. That was funny because it is a perfect representation of insane progressive busybodies. Hypocrites too.
Heh. And mangoes almost universally identify with our neighbors south of the border as well.
Especially white clouds.
The gorilla in the earlier incident wasn’t shot because the keepers succeeded in getting it move where they wanted it to go so that the boy could be rescued. Too bad the same thing didn’t happen with Harambe.
THEY are associating black people with gorillas.
✔. I’ve had it on all my machines for years, it’s easy to install, and it works. Latest count is 869,798 ads blocked on this box, so far.
I suppose that by identifying with a gorilla over white humans, they are also demonstrating their support of evolution.
This has got to be a joke. Maybe a phony story. If it is true that the race card is being pulled on this gorilla shooting, where is the psychiatric community on this one. There was a day when the wagon would roll up and they would take such outraged mental cases out in straight jackets.
Good point.
Same sex "marriage", gender identity, microaggressions . . .
Back in the 80’s, I worked in a packing plant in South Omaha and several cows got out. We had one who wouldn’t go back to the pens so the Humane Society darted it with a nicotine tranquilizer. Let the cow sit for 15-30 minutes and I watched an Omaha Police officer walk over to it to put a rope on it and it took off like a bat out of hell. They did the right thing in my opinion. If they had tranquilized the ape and it ripped the arms off the boy, everyone would be questioning why they hadn’t shot it.

I fault the parents for not controlling their kid. I also fault the zoo for having exhibits that kids can fall into.
They need to design the exhibits so the exhibit animals can’t escape and the visiting animals can’t fall in. ;-)
I agree.
Peta?
The heck with that. When my daughter was young, she loved to go exploring and would wander at the drop of a hat.
We used to keep her in a harness and leash in places like the zoo or a mall. We used to get all the usual stares and disapproving looks. I'd just flip 'em the bird and keep walking.
GORILLAS LIVES MATTER
NO JUST TEAS... NO PEAS!
OTOH, future leash/harness utilizers can probably brag: "No gorillas are going to be killed in the raising of our offspring..."
