In other words, the people doing the complaining are the racists.
OK, I’m waiting for the ‘PETA vs NAACP’ lawsuit. The Supreme Court will have to rule on that one....
That seems incredibly racist.
Anybody seen Al notsoSharpton lately?
A Corsicana city council member announced on Facebook Wednesday that the gorilla would return to the park as soon as weather permits.

Paint the gorilla white and put a sign on the cage that reads “Black neighborhood”.
Pretty soon and they'll be lobbying for "Kym-bye-Yah" to become the National Anthem.
I’m scratching my head trying to figure out how this is racist.
It has a very vague similarity to lawn jockey statues but any shiny black statue with white eyes is going to look that way.
First they came for the Confederates. But we didn’t say anything because we weren’t Confederates.
Then they came for the Gorillas. But we didn’t say anything because we weren’t Gorillas.
Who will be left to say anything when they come for us?
(Inspired by Martin Niemoeller).
Google certainly believes they look like gorillas.
A rational person would know how “racist” it is to suggest that gorillas have a (human) race!
This is what happens when you heed offendsensitive twits: they only grow worse.
Far better to overtly offend them and laugh in their faces.

Most people would never think of it as racist.
The race hustlers equate with a depiction of a black person related to a gorilla. Hence the “racially insensitive” meme. They are disgusting pimps and I hate them for even causing me have to think this way.
They have to keep the grievance going at any cost. This is precisely why people are getting tired of these idiots.
The backlash is coming.
If we remove things because minorities are offended. Then they control everything. They are the “minority”. Communist Nwo thought has overtaken certain areas. People wake up.
So if a black person complains about a gorilla statue being racist, are they guilty of micro agressing themselves?
Paint him white, problem solved!
The lawn jockey thing has always amused me. It was originally meant as a tribute to the great black jockey, Isaac Murphy. He is actually buried at the Kentucky Horse Park, not far from Man O’ War. That’s about as good as it gets for a horse person.
“...after ‘a few citizens’ complained...”
Why does this NEVER work in the opposite direction? How about if ‘a few citizens’ complained about the trampling of our RIGHTS on a daily basis?
Would changes happen within DAYS to right those wrongs?
Yep. Sure. Whatever.
