If we would just give these poor kids something to do (I guess free day at the zoo does not qualify), then they would not have to turn to violence to keep themselves occupied. (/s)

Something tells me it’s all happening at the zoo . . .

Even charging $1 admission would probably have removed a good percentage of the cretins.

Or better yet, “free admission with donation of canned food items.” That worked well over here and the Kennedy Space Center Visitor Center in years past. Huge crowds, but no riff raff.

I think places need to start really ramping up entrance fees and prices, just to start curtailing the kinds of people who start trouble at “free stuff” events. Just to ensure the people who really find it important and valuable and want to enjoy whatever, can do so without fear animals that don’t respect anything or anyone don’t ruin it and injure or kill people.

Free days promised these cretins because of a
1/8-cent tax imposed.
Unbelievable. This, on people who gripe about others not paying "their fair share" of income.
Grrrrrrrrr.

Why, “teens” of course!
It all has to do with being 13 to 19. All “teens” behave this way...

Only when the liberal blacks will have an honest conversation about it. And that could very well be never because they could lose the race card and the race-baiting industry.

They should require patrons to perform a simple arithmetic problem like WordPress Math Captcha:

2 + 5 = ?

To: Jeff Chandler
The monkeys stand for honesty,
Giraffes are insincere,
And the elephants are kindly but
They’re dumb.
Orangutans are skeptical
Of changes in their cages,
And the zookeeper is very fond of rum.
Simon and Garfunkel sure got the first line wrong!

You never read about the zoo animals escaping on free days. Why is that? Professional courtesy, of course.
Next question.
Why doesn’t Fred Phelps and his posse show up at black funerals? The answer? Do I need to state one?
And another.
Why are there no free days at the Kansas City Opera or the Ballet, or NASCAR races? Answer. If the culture values an activity or institution it will pay to participate in that activity.
If a culture doesn’t value itself why would its members pay to see something that they have nothing invested in like the KC Zoo?
