TOPIC: Recent news that involve animals

Okay so we have a silver back in a Cincinnati Zoo. The kid falls fifteen feet into his pin and he goes to save him. Everybody panics, sends the animal into a frenzy. He starts pulling this child around like a rag doll but he's just trying to be protective. They kill it. WHERE THE HELL WERE HIS FUCKING PARENTS?

We have a two year old wadding in the water where clear signs have been posted, basically saying keep your ass out of the water because there are alligators. What happens? The parents of a two year old are out here in water they have stay the hell out of and their son is snatched by a gator. YOUR IN FLORIDA!!! LAND OF THE GIANT SNAKES, ALLIGATORS, AND ALL OTHER SHIT!!! What the hell is going on? Then they want to keep killing these animals like it ain't no big ass deal. Man is disgusting! I'm Pissed!!!

Deb I also put the responsibility for this children where it belongs, with the parents. However, when you post things like this back them up with evidence. Does anyone have proof those signs were posted about the alligators in Orlando?

Okay, I agree the parents are responsible for their children but the alligator thing is Disney's fault There were no signs posted there but there are signs posted at a neighboring resort. www.tmz.com/2016/06/15/disney-alligator-...signs-warning-hyatt/. You can have a look here. The Silver back in Cincinnati I think if they hadn't acted quickly that kid was going to have a stroke He was terrified because this big animal was flinging him around so fast.. Not only was his heart a problem it was a real possibility the child was going to be hurt slamming into something at those speeds.

Okay this is scary...look at how he's dragging this boy around. Now on some news clips all they show is the gorilla pulling up his pants and kind of petting him. But they don't show how fast he's dragging the boy from one end of that water to the other. This clip does and it's scary. .

Okay...yes the parents are responsible but let's be realistic. Calm down. Some tragedies have happened and as Americans we need someone to blame. The mother of the boy who fell into the gorilla exhibit turned to take a picture. Her son was right beside her when she did it. But this rambunctious little guy ran off in a split second and found himself face to face with a silver back. Now I regret the animal was euthanized but unfortunately he is a human and this animal was fast on the way to killing this human child accidentally or not. Like I said it is unfortunate but we are sometimes faced with decisions that aren't very pleasant. Let's show both sets of parents the sympathy they deserve as they too are victims of natural occurrences where there is absolutely no one to blame.

Deb, facebook tells everything with a slant toward the person making the point. Some people are trying to turn it all into a racial issue. Honestly some things have a clear racial quality but some of it is really reaching. I wasn't sure until Luke made his point about the mother of the child who fell into the gorilla's area of that Zoo. I agree with him. We are too quick to pass judgement and place blame. We are too harsh on each other and unable to show or feel compassion. It is sad and I want us to be different in this group.
