AVENGE ME: Vigil and Protests Planned for Slain Gorilla, Harambe

Who named him Harambe anyway? I’m sure he’d disagree with that name. If you’re unfamiliar with the news, a monstrous gorilla was seen dragging a 3 year old child around in the water the other day, like at 100mph–much to 3 year old boy’s chagrin. Employees of the Cincinnati zoo, who happen to be most familiar with the temperament of this Harambe character, opted to kill the gorilla in order to save the boy’s life.

Activists charge ‘HARAMBE’ was merely playing with the boy and was more attentive to him than his parents, who permitted the boy to be dropped into the gorilla exhibit. They feel, in a sense, that perhaps the young boy deserved what was coming to him and should’ve thought about the consequences of his actions BEFORE falling into the gorilla den.

In response to these charges, the 3 year old boy said ‘goo goo, ga ga. BIG gorilla, ROAAAAAR’.

Post Harambe’s death, lunatics who live on the edges of sanity have taken to social media to voice their disdain. Moreover, they’re planning vigils and protests too, because #GORILLASLIVESMATTER and all that jazz.

Rumor has it that Harambe was very much interested in undergoing a sex change operation and actively cross dressed at the zoo, prancing about the cage with high heels and a skirt, which might’ve been the motive to kill him by one of the scurrilous zoo keepers.

    Solution: Throw the protesters into a Gorilla exhibit and then ask them what they would like the zookeeper to do. When they scream, “shoot the animals!”, the zookeeper should follow orders and shoot the protesters.

    Many people living in cities or towns are naive about nature. This is not unusual at all. When they see a wild animal, they fondly remember their childhood teddy bear or other stuffed animal, and think that the wild ones are just as safe and cuddly. If you know someone like this, you should ask them to watch the movie Grizzly Man with you, so they can learn about wild animals.

      SHHHHHHH. I am sure you’ve never been in the woods, let alone with ‘nature’.

        Gong to the woods for hikes sometimes doesn’t necessarily dispel the cherished myths about nature that people have.

        I live in one of the few natural areas left on the planet, the Olympic Peninsula. You and your family should visit the Olympic National Park some time. It’s breath taking.

    I knew someone who did research on images of the forest and nature in American’s minds, for advertising and pr purposes. There were two images that were very common. Both were sort of Walt Disney like. Neither image contained any dangerous creatures whatsoever.

    There are also stories like this one, where a family adopted a bear at age 3 months and now he weighs 300 lb. and still lives with them. He turned out to have a non-aggressive personality. It’s a charming story, but not very typical of humans’ relationships with wild bears. I suppose he was a tame bear, being raised by them from 3 months old. Even so, this sort of story more often ends with the people realizing, as the bear or other wild animal grows larger, that he’s too aggressive to be living with humans.

    A friend of mine used to work in a sort of animal shelter for large animals. They were chock full of pigs. People would buy pigs when they were tiny, because piglets are as cute as puppies. But once they grew into gigantic pigs, the people started realizing that they were not ready to deal with a huge animal like that, and it surely made no sense to keep it in their house.

    Small raccoons are cute too but can carry rabies. And they’re very adroit with their paws– so much so that if one gets into your house, say through the cat door, they can tear things apart quickly.
