>The City of Corsicana, Texas, this week removed a popular gorilla statue from its cage in a community park playground after people complained it was racially insensitive.
>A makeshift memorial cropped up Tuesday at the empty cage in Community Park, where “Dobby” the gorilla stood for the past 19 years. A Facebook page called “In Memory Of Dobby” reached more than 1,100 supporters, and a petition on Change.org calling for the statue to be returned fetched more than 2,300 signatures. A candlelight vigil took place Wednesday night and a protester sat inside the cage, vowing to remain until the statue was returned, a local CBS affiliate reported.
>Corsicana Mayor Don Denbow sent a letter Tuesday evening to the Corsicana Daily Sun, saying the gorilla was initially removed after “it was determined to be potentially racially insensitive.”
>“This was brought to our attention by a few citizens,” the mayor said. “The circumstances were evaluated and determined to be valid. It was not possible to leave the gorilla without the cage due to safety reasons. The statue was top heavy and was caged initially to protect the children. The cage will be left and turned into a climbing feature. The City will look at replacing the display in the future.”
How long until zoos are outlawed because they're "racially insensitive to PoCs"?

Niggers think they’re the same as gorillas?

Whites are monkeys too movement

Wouldn't this send the message that Texas sees blacks as gorillas, accomplishing the opposite of what they want?
Colton Sanders
Let me guess, it wasn't black people complaining about it, but some busybody (((noses))) stirring up a fuss.

Gabriel Gonzalez
uhh, do they realize by taking this down that they are only branding themselves as racists because they implicitly admit that they themselves think niggers are just like gorillas

When are we all going to stop pretending that everyone isn't a race realist and minorities don't know how shit they are in comparison to whites? From whites to jews, the entire world knows about the races, that's why everyone that isn't white wants to play pretend.

>It was not possible to leave the gorilla without the cage due to safety reasons Because niggers would've vandalised it. So they put it in a cage to protect it, and the same niggers bitched about how it was apparently a statement on keeping their monkey asses locked up. Catch 22.

I honestly don't know why politicians and heads of companies bow to the the shreakings of a few random retards who will forget about the issue in a week or two. It makes no sense to me.
Probably the worst case being that guy who founded mozilla who was fired for supporting traditional marriage. Did those board members really think his support of traditional marriage was going to to impact their business in any capacity?
It's all virtue signaling at this point. Pathetic

Because the SJWs are puppets of higher forces that control the media, banks and could destroy their career, finance and life.
They're useful idiots doing the bidding of their puppetmasters.
