Gorilla control

**Cangooner** · 01-13-2013, 12:59 AM

OK, I think I may be doomed to failure right from the start, but what are the odds that a satirical look at gun ownership/control/laws can get a few laughs without launching another round of, ahem, debate? Seriously guys, this is just for a laugh.

Gorilla Sales Skyrocket After Latest Gorilla Attack | The Onion - America's Finest News Source

If you could currently buy gorrilas, and there was a threat that you wouldn't be able to buy them soon, sales would skyrocket.
It's about a commodity becoming scarce (or the threat of it becoming scarce) in the market, combined with media driven awareness / hype.

The same thing happened with twinkies.

So was the last one, and that turned out well....

Ahh the Onion. I get my best news from there. Which is probably why I don't participate too much in the "real" debates.

I think so long as people get a license, and some training....No..nvm..I don't think it's ok to own a gorilla. Unless it's like a "therapy" gorilla that visits nursing homes to keep the old folks cheered up. Even that might be risky.

I was just catching up on it and only had a page and a half of posts left to read the other night before it was completely removed off the forum(it was already closed). I understand the need to close threads that derail or completely devolve, but pulling this one was a disappointment, whereas the other more controversial and closed threads on similar topics are still there for the reading.

You missed my shining moment! That's when I proved... nothing lol! Nothing at all

.

That is weird that it disappeared all together - but dude, if you read the first 3/4, you must have noted the repetitive nature of it all lol

. You didn't miss anything per se.

I only caught a 'glimpse' of it, and the bit that I saw fired a few concerns in me. Not sure I want a gorilla though. All I need is a Jack Russell

. I'm the gorilla holding him!

I have already placed an order for my gorilla. We all know the only way to stop a gorilla attack is by having a gorilla of your own.

We must not allow a gorilla gap!

Our Rat Terrier had a gorilla, stuffed of course, oddly enough. Me, I'm no gorilla.
