They have joined Saint Harambe in the afterlife.

They shoot chimps but let Muzzies rape and murder.

Chimps are cute and adorable...until they rip your face off.

[dynachrome]

I remember that story.

Y’all never saw the 28 days later documentary

Chimps on the run, they scream and everyone comes, runnin’…

[dynachrome]

That was fun movie. VERY fast zombies/ragers.

“I remember that story.”

There may be more than one. But yea, they get a little chip on their shoulder, and you DO NOT want to be a lady anywhere near them, in that case:

I was thinking of the one where a woman used to drink wine (and more?) with her pet chimp and it ripped the face off of a friend.

Pet chimp owner screams ‘he ripped her face off’ during harrowing phone call

“But it could also have been that at the age of 14, the 200lb (14st) ape’s instincts had simply become too strong - or that he was simply sick of his unnatural lifestlye of cooking his own microwave meals, drinking wine at dinner, and using the toilet like a human.”

Sounds like some of those Mall episodes I read about when the Amish start actin’ out.

Ouch!!!

Chimps are more civil.

>>until they rip your face off

Chimps do not “rip”. The bite your face off.

And your fingers, balls, pecker, toes, and then they get series.

Imagine taking a child, separating it from all humanity, locking him in a cage regularly and then being surprised when he goes nuts and tries to kill when he hits puberty. Now make him many times stronger and with sharp teeth.

[Governor Dinwiddie]

Dats racis.

[Albion Wilde]

Wonder if they could have shot them with tranquilizer darts; and if not, why not.

[Albion Wilde]

I just read the article. I see their rationale for not using tranq darts. Not sure I buy it; but I wasn’t there. If they escaped into a congested area and police were not helping people to shelter in place, maybe they had no choice. Poor critters.

Wow! That could be hugh!
