I don't see a difference and I don't see any similar trait of a black person and a monkey. Are you referring to the color of monley fur? I don't see it.

Whoever did the shooting and said they didn't know why probably got tired of the usual "fearing for their life" mantra.

Some on the left said he Looked like a chimp with his facial expressions. I know...I was there.

As I said above, he wasn't compared. And yes, when said about a black person, it's totally different and they know that.

The problem is that he probably won't be held accountable. They put him on desk duty for 6 months to a year, release a BS report, and life goes on. This is the problem.
