Maybe they could make a movie or TV show about a whole planet of such apes

What, like, if they evolved and took over or something? Lol that's ridiculous nobody would watch that.

I despise chimps (and monkeys) with a passion. Saying this to people gets me treated like saying I torture puppies for fun, which I most certainly do not, but I just think they're evil little fuckers. I would never harm one, because it has every right to live, but I don't want to go see them at the zoo, I don't want anything to do with them, and I don't understand the fascination seemingly everyone has with them. They creep me out. They're like little humans, except when a person gets mad for a stupid reason you can at least try to talk them down and reason with them before they get out of control, a chimp will just rip your face off.

Buddy and Ollie attacked St. James simultaneously; one chimp initially attacked St. James's face, the other attacked his foot. The sanctuary owner's son-in-law, Mark Carruthers, retrieved a 45-caliber revolver and shot Buddy in the head. Meanwhile, Ollie dragged St. James's body down a walkway. Carruthers followed and killed Ollie by gunshot.

The chimpanzees destroyed a majority of St. James's fingers, his left foot, most of his buttocks, both testicles, part of his torso, and parts of his face including his nose and his lips.

Is this a Republican Trump Proud Boys Oath Keepers story?
