Rush,

Dolphins and porpoises aren’t fish. They’re mammals.

I don't humanize animals. Um, but you know what? Someone's gotta stick up for them, and someone does have to give them rights.

No.

What I want more information on is where the hell were the parents when the kid fell into the pen. This is not some short scramble over a fence. To me, the parents are responsible for this act and should bear the full consequences of it, including restitution for the animal.

Story out in Daily Mail (you have to go to England to find out the news about the U.S.) said the dad was a big thug with a bunch of charges on his rap sheet.

They’ll probably sue the zoo over their own stupidity.

Sure would like to see a link the Black Lives Matter where the organization weighed in on the dead gorilla.

animal rights are false rights just like economic rights and rights of groups are

You can be an animal lover and still recognize that if the choice is between an animal and a human, no matter the circumstances that led up to it, the animal has to go.

I’ve got mixed feelings on this one. The zoo should definitely have an enclosure that prevents an errant child from getting in so easily. I know it would practically be impossible to make it adult proof. The parents are to blame as well. If they can’t maintain their kids on an outing then maybe they shouldn’t go or at least put them on some kind of leash and harness just like we do with dogs.

Being a dog/animal lover myself; I do think animals should have some basic rights. Obviously all zoo animals and all pets; even runaway pets. Human life must come first. That’s just the way it is but when I hear some cowboy say they will shoot any dog they see roaming around on their property; I think to myself - just try that with one of mine. There would be two bodies being buried that day. If I’m out walking and letting my dogs get some exercise out it the country and some inbred shoots one of them; I’m being attacked and have every right to defend myself to the point of killing the shooter which I would most definitely do my best to do.

Should the gorilla's life take primacy? It was the gorilla's home.

Since everything is politicized anyway; this is a perfect example of an undocumented alien.

Crossing the border {moat} illegally, coming to Harambe's attention, and those in power imagining that the gorilla citizen is NOT going to be kind to the visitor; kills him.


Right there; folks; is what's going to be happening down Mexico way.


Heck; it even happens in Oregon; but since no one was threatened; the powers-that-be just HAD to kill SOMEBODY!!

Perhaps Rush is just taking a page from Obama and justifying the shooting before the facts are in. Another opportunity for Rushbo to be the unqualified animal psychologist. He has absolutely no idea about the history of the gorilla or about it’s previous behavior toward people or young gorillas. Both things are relevant and should have been well known to the zoo staff, yet we aren’t hearing about that from the zoo. It’s a tragedy. I’m not happy with the outcome, but I’m withholding judgement until the facts are complete. I do hope the liberals fry everyone until the facts are all transparent.

Best Gorilla in the world worth .... maybe one cent

Any 4 year old human child worth ... more than a billion dollars.

Shoot the damn Gorilla.

An oldie but goody Snerdley dressed as Koko the gorilla. The fun starts around 2 minute into the tape.

If it were a naked, drunk jumping in to commune with the gorilla, and they shot it, I would be outraged. But you don’t take a chance with a small child.

The zoo team made the right call..

Leftists are racists. They are outraged that that gorilla was shot and killed to save a black child’s life.

“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.
