Bootleg Kev replied, “What does that mean? You don’t like the gorilla? Do you think there’s some racial connotations with the Suns gorilla?”
Odom, making a face, answered, “Come on, bro,” then expounded upon his reasons.

Life must be pretty miserable for him; having to find a way to be perpetually-aggrieved all the time.

As in quantum physics (IIRC), racism didn't exist until Odom observed it by making a comparison between himself and a gorilla.
So wouldn't this make Odom the only racist here?
To: nickcarraway
Liberals attitudes to such things implies that liberals believe that Negros are uncomfortably close to being apes and it is impolite to have apes around.

somebody should tell Odom humans didn’t come from gorillas or monkeys so there’s no reason to take offense, and, it’s perfectly ok to call big burly men gorillas and curtain climbers little monkeys

"Gorillas have typical been associated as a derogatory terms for blacks."
I think one guy said something like that about 100 years ago, so now the crying left must remind everyone of it to keep them in perpetual victimhood. Stupid.
To: nickcarraway
gorillas are highly intelligent, unlike Mr Odom
