Say by by to almost a third of the worlds wild mountain gorillas.

Do they have 10,000 spoons?

Can they be saved by FARC Guerillas?

Clearly, we need to arm the apes and teach them the ways of war.

Can't be easy to spot a negro among the gorillas.

Would be ironic if the gorillas just got finished watching a safety video about guerilla attacks...in a "guerilla-free" movie theater.

Oook!

I do not like the human race.
I do not like its silly face.
I do not like the way it walks,
I do not like the way it talks;
And when I'm introduced to one,
I never think "What jolly fun!"

 
tacojohn 2008-10-26 09:13:03 PM  
I never knew there was a difference in spelling of the two words.

 
LegacyDL 2008-10-26 09:13:54 PM  
The irony would have been gorillas killing guerrillas with their own weapons.

And the guerrillas would have to be poachers for the full circle.

 
ultraholland 2008-10-26 09:14:04 PM  
He said "gorilla". Not "guerrilla". "Guer", "go".

Huge difference!

Terrific. Those twat-waffles will shoot the 'rillas just for the "fun" of it.

Dian Fossey should have taught the mountain gorillas to kill humans.

Boy were they in for a surprise!

It was Earth all along!

irony: an outcome of events contrary to what was, or might have been, expected.

this was not ironic.

Jesus Christ, guy. Don't use the term "cracker" for white people. Honky is the preferred nomenclature. Please!

Beg to differ, or perhaps just clarify, but down here in the south, cracker is preferable

Can we please get a definitive ruling on this from an authentic black person? "Cracker" seems more real to me, and I can't help but feel that "honky" was probably dreamed up by whoever was writing Sherman Helmsley's dialogue on The Jeffersons.

 
cryinoutloud [TotalFark] 2008-10-26 09:33:45 PM  
Well, this sucks. They'll kill those gorillas for bush meat, sell the babies on the world market, and sell their body parts for whatever they can get.

I'm watching a show about gorillas right now on PBS. It was probably filmed in this park.

 
goethe_helen_hunt 2008-10-26 09:33:45 PM  
This is seriously bad news for an endangered species. Previously, fighters drove innocent people into the jungle, where they ate bushmeat. Now the attackers are in the jungle and you know they're going to be hungry. And of course the apes are used to tourists, so they won't know any better. This really sucks.

 
Naman [TotalFark] 2008-10-26 09:35:40 PM  
Some day, I'll probably be working in Africa, and I won't be remotely surprised to enter a country and see a sign that says "Now entering the Democratic Republic of Congo" with one of those little subnotes like factories have about accidents saying "Coup d'etat free for 9 days!"

No, they'll shoot them for food. Same result, though.

QFT.

You can't save the gorillas from the animals.

 
Pestifer 2008-10-26 09:39:04 PM  
This (new window) is what Virunga looked like in the 30's. The valley has now filled in with a town and farms, forcing the gorillas up to the mountains only, where they're really good targets.

Considering how well some of the asshat military leaders are doing in Africa I wouldn't call that entirely unwarranted (Fark you, Mugabe).
Now THIS is racist:

As a pasty Caucasoid whose ancestors immigrated to the US in the 1880s, I feel the term "honky"- which is offensive to all white people, yet is not directly connected to slavery unlike "cracker"- is just fine when insulting whitey.

The Spanish Inquisition is more ironic than this headline.

"Rebels loyal to dissident general Laurent Nkunda took over the headquarters of the Virunga National Park and the sector where the gorillas are to be found after heavy fighting with the DRC army in the early hours of the morning," the park said.

Ah. So the gorillas have taken up arms at last! About time they decided to fight back...

/a talking park???
