My thoughts exactly.
And pepper spray if they have it.
With no parole.
yes I agree it makes us look bad as Americans. It’s like when they say an American soldier rapes a japanese lady and I look at the name and find a photo I’m never surprised. But still, it reflects on America.

Yeah, where are they really from?

Luckily the monkey wasn’t named “Spank”
Infuriating.
They sould be dropped into the rhino exhibit after male rhinos given Viagra.
