Going Ape Over the Monkey ... Mark Steyn
Steyn Online ^ | 21 Nov 2016 | Mark Steyn

Sabha is a city in the south of what remains of Libya after Hillary ("We came, we saw, he died") Clinton was done with it. Last week, a pet monkey belonging to a shopkeeper from the Gaddadfa tribe pulled the head scarf off one of a group of passing schoolgirls from the Awlad Suleiman tribe. The outraged menfolk of the girls did not take it well. So far, sixteen people are dead plus the monkey.

~Tribalism is a subtler affair in the United States. Last week the fetching young gentlemen of the chorus from the Snowflake tribe discovered that a pet monkey belonging to the cruel and ruthless chieftain of the Deplorable tribe had penetrated the security perimeter of their sacred temple of native dancing and drumming every night at seven at the Richard Rodgers Theatre. Upon discovering a non-believer in their midst, the elders of the al-Exander Hamilton tribe angrily denounced him from the tabernacle while their simple impoverished people - some of whom were only able to afford 500 bucks for a pair of restricted-view seats - bayed their approval of his public humiliation.

Islam is a seriously crippling mental disorder.
Isolation is recommended.

Could easily be a scene in a Tarrantino movie.

Everybody’s got something to hide except for me and my monkey.

Steyn is great — The Snowflake tribe vs. the Deplorable tribe. Perfect.

Why these people are poor and live in conditions not fit for a rat: they are mired in ignorance and there’s no sign that they want to get out of it.
The first step would be to ditch their so-called religion.
Then start doing something useful and productive with their lives. Produce things. Start learning some of the things that humans have learned since the year 610. Start treating humans like humans.
Think it’ll ever happen?

I take it you are referring to the members of the Snowflake Tribe?

The infinite monkey theorem states that a monkey hitting keys at random on a typewriter keyboard for an infinite amount of time will almost surely type a given text, such as the complete works of William Shakespeare.

Spare us your lectures, play monkey scolds. Just entertain us.

I know this for a fact: if, just after being elected, Barack Obama had entered a restaurant or theatre only to be lectured - in however “genial” a manner - by the staff, regarding his actual or assumed policies, and had been told to be the president of “all the people,” the press would have gone ape-sh**, the employee or employees giving the lecture would have been fired immediately, and there would have been solemn editorials denouncing the act from coast to coast.

AS usual, Steyn is on the Mark for those who can decipher his terrific prose.
