You're an intelligent man. There's no reason I should have to tell you once again that there is no political commentary in apolitical threads. You must stop doing this.

There is no political commentary allowed in threads which have nothing to do with politics. Please keep this stuff out of such threads. It's old, tired, boring, unfunny, unwelcome and annoying.

When I was about9-10, I saw a zoo chimp refuse an injection at Dad's vet exam room. Handlers eventually got him tranquilized. Room got messy real quick.

And yes. Poo was involved.

Why anyone would keep a primate as a pet is beyond me.

Actually, I think your comment might be closer to the truth than not. I’m seeing chatter that these monkeys were infected/infectious with “something” and that they came or went to/from the USAMRIID biological warfare center Eek

An “I heard” claim without backup is no different than saying “the First Sergeant’s wife heard it from Lt. Fuzz’s brother that…”

Well I heard from my sister’s hairdresser’s cousin that they were to be on the Last Train To Clarksville. (I’m done now)

"Chatter"?

According to the CDC, they were en route to an animal quarantine facility after being recently imported from Mauritius. The CDC requires that all imported primates must undergo a 31 day quarantine period, and they had just arrived at JFK Airport in NY on Friday morning before being involved in the collision a few hours later.

(I mean, unless that's just what "They" want you to think...)
