Just because they’re black.

Oh, what’s a liberal to do.

They should be banned from all zoos in the U.S.

The parents should pay for the breeding and replacement of the gorilla at the zoo.

Mom may be an idiot. However, as a parent who reared several boys (and a very good and strict parent, I assure you), this could have happened to me.

Two of mine would happily have tried such a stunt. Happily, by the time they were five or so, they had a bit of sense.

All are grown now, never in serious trouble, vote right, good guys.

However, when they were preschoolers, in spite of my best efforts . . .

Couldn’t do that again.

What is clearly going on is that people seem to think the boy was white. That seems to have been the gist of it from the black lives matter idiots.

Same here-—and one of my daughters was even more of a dare-devil.

Simple ?s I’d like to know ...

Was this mother overwhelmed with children with her ?

Was she breeding kids for the welfare benefit or EBT monies ?

Or was she a homeschooling mom bringing kids up and following biblical teaching on family size ?

It can happen in a second.

This story should have been over two days ago.

I am waiting for the adults to show up.

“Just because they’re black.”?

Sounds like the situation is almost ready for the racist Fraud-in-Chief to make a statement on this.

Oh, what’s a liberal to do.

Being Black is outweighed by her praising God for her son's safe return - how dare she......

Our nation is becoming filled with worthless individuals. In the book “The Time Machine” an Eloi woman (human like creatures) is drowning. The Eloi just watch on rather curiously.

At this time, everyone just pops out their smart phone and starts recording.

Not one brave individual among them all that would dare go down to distract the gorilla. You can just hear the mom on camera saying “don’t worry. Mommy’s here.”

Authorities have said the boy's mother was with the child when he slipped past a fence and tumbled into the moat.

I can understand the boy slipping through the fence (we've all done things like that as a kid). But how stupid can the boy be to go over the edge and into the water - a 10 ft. drop!

I was going to say hey, if the kid wants to go kill himself let him. It’ll likely save someone elses life down the road. But I’d never say that!

Animal experts said that if an adult had tried to intervene, it would have agitated the gorilla, who would have seen it as a threat, and likely been much worse.

I have three boys, and they all could climb to the top of the pantry while I took my eyes off them for a few seconds. I guess I must be a bad parent also.

You can’t control any human being 100%.

Kids don’t need to climb in and play with gorillas, but they do need freedom. We don’t want to be East Germany.

We’re at the stage where there can be no accidents. Every action has to have a punishment.
