Gorilla shot after 4yr old falls in enclosure VOL.....RIP HARAMBE

Ahhhh now they pull out the parents criminal history. Was he robbing the zoo while his son was climbing in? I don't get how that's relevant here


Flagrant. News media agenda right in your face.

This will of course make people jump to conclusions about the child and mother.
 
I will never understand people who go with the status quo just cause that's how things have been done. Unquestioning much of life and our cultural actions on other beings

 Reason why atrocities such as Ota Benga being displayed at the Bronx Zoo were possible not too long ago. Some people thought it was par for the course.... 
What's the suggestion if both lives are equally valuable. Do they just sit back and let things play out hoping that the gorilla doesn't kill the child?

Murphy's law and Darwin's law at work. Plus whatever law calls for the parent just being a dummy.
 
I'm genuinely curious what makes a human life more important? Other than the fact that we are human. Let's put the feels to the side for a moment. I'm human so obviously, I'm team human... But I don't see human life as being more important if I put my ego and feelings to the side. We've been here for a mere spec in terms of the earth and the universe. Humans made a mistake. Is that clear in this situation? Yet, it's ok to kill a being that's barely genetically different from us?
 
Nothing makes either life 'more important.' You have to acknowledge that a child's life was at risk and it is the Zoo's duty to keep its visitors safe...even if negligence is the reason the kid fell in.

No life is more important than any other. That child was a visitor and was in mortal danger. If you think letting nature take its course in the most unnatural of environments makes sense and waiting the situation out risking the death of a child, then I really don't know what else to say.:lol

It's fine. It's over with. The final outcome shouldn't be the ape being shot dead though. This isn't the first, won't be the last time. The definition of insanity.....

Go to the pit with an animal that can eat you alive at your own risk. To me the risk starts the moment you buy the ticket.  Animals have been known to escape. This one was locked up. 

Should we start blaming car accident deaths on perfectly working cars too?

The risk of going to a zoo, should be taken into consideration. These are captured animals after all.

Nature is scary...we just got a taste of it and people are losing their minds.


God we are so sheltered as a race.


Man Stop it. Detroit is scary. Chiraq is scary. Isis is scary. Ain't nothing natural about locking a being up and then shooting it since we ****** up.
I agree...but the animal was locked up and they chose to kill it to protect a child. Lobbying against zoo's makes more sense than lobbying for this gorilla.

Who's lobbying for a gorilla though?

It's not like we can bring Donkey Kong back to life
 
Y'all being just a bit delusional if you think the Rilla was killed without the thought that human life is more important. That's the reason why the Rilla is in the zoo in the first place, to entertain humans.
 
You got people who are afraid to have their toddler anywhere near a dog or cat.

BUT..... Lemme take my eye off my kid near a cliff and 400LB, gorilla though. Makes absolutely perfect sense.

OOOPPPS!

Thank you Based god for saving my child!

You ain't neva made no mistake before?!

Da Disconnect.

That's a toddler bruh.

Y'all really gonna let the child die because the mother did some dumb **** for a couple seconds.

Y'all are borderline psychopaths in here talking about "Darwin's Law" for a ******* 3/4 year old.

This site never fails to surprise me.

Why do we cherry pick comments to our favor. More human arrogance and ego.
We already been through this. catch up.
 
Nah I don't. Clearly, the concrete should be shot.

I mean in your genius hypothetical, if the child hit his head on the concrete and dies then nothing can be done.

But when he was in the clutches of your homie Curious George his life was still able to be saved...

This question has been asked tens of times in this thread and y'all seem to not see it so I'll ask it once more...

Once the gorilla has this 4 year old in his possession...what would be an acceptable next move for the zoo in your opinion...just tell everyone to go home and throw down some bananas and a spare change of clothes and some pedialyte for the little homie...
