People are more often being disarmed, mauled by animals (pit bulls, for example) and pushed toward vegetarianism, eating bugs and so on. I intend to oppose such practices brought to us by evil, idolatrous policies and laws that were practiced by Nazis and empires.
-—The damn Gorilla was protecting the child, until the screaming got it rattled-—
Do you see the video where the gorilla was dragging the kid like a rag doll though the water ?
“protecting” the the child is a perception rather than a fact...
You have no way to know it’s intent...
“So why are there cruelty to animals laws?”
Because cruelty to animals is bad, and a healthy society deplores bad things. It’s bad because people have responsibilities, not because animals have rights.
The gorilla was treating the kid like one of its own.
The dragging was reaction to the howling of the crowd.
Leftists are racists. They are outraged that that gorilla was shot and killed to save a black child’s life.

Harambe was a silverback male. When an intruder enters the gorillas territory, the male asserts itself; having people shrieking at it from above while its confused would only further antagonize it. Hanna says the instant he saw the footage of an agitated Harambe yanking the kid roughly through the water by the foot, he knew it would have ended with the child dead had zookeepers not intervened. To give you a sense of the power the animal has, he notes that humans need a hatchet and a sledgehammer to generate the force needed to crack the shell of a green coconut. Male silverbacks can do it with their bare hands. Let that thought guide you in what lay in store for the kid.
“I’ve always had a question: If we were the original apes, then how come Harambe is still an ape, and how come he didn’t become one of us?”
Rush nails it.
Again.
The earth is warming up!!!
If an adult human being is in danger of being mauled by a _______, the _______ should be stopped as efficiently as possible.
Yes; human may be inserted into the blank.
Slow learners...
Animals have the right to life as we do. As God intended them to.
According to the Bible, animals do have rights. They have the right to be treated well by us, even if we plan to eat them. We are not to be cruel to animals. Even emotionally cruel.
If the gorilla was treating it as one of its own, in a confused fear/concern-reaction, it would have scooped the kid. That might still have injured the kid, but it would have represented an attempt. Dragging the child is treating it like a thing. I can’t blame the gorilla for doing so, as it has no obligations - but it is something which needed to be addressed.
“Animals have the right to life as we do.”
Utter nonsense.
Think again......MOST people given the choice in saving a person they don’t know from DROWNING or saving their dog, the VAST % of people said their DOG!!!!
The kid got his WISH!! He kept telling his mom that he wanted to swim with the gorilla!! HELLO, mom!!
What are the odds that the woman who called in to Rush's show, so worried about the ape and not the child, has had an abortion ?
Road apples
Now that sounds like something Col. Potter would say.
“Now that sounds like something Col. Potter would say.”
If he did, he was right.
