New Forced Labor

[Gun Smoke]

The issue of ancient slavery keeps popping up so I thought this might be of interest.

Costco has dropped Chaokoh brand coconut milk due to the claim that monkey's are used to harvest the coconuts.

Though the monkey's are probably fed, housed and taken care of many generations from now they will probably demand reparations and destroy things around them if they don't get the attention they think they deserve.

They may even protest, riot and carry MLM signs.

Then you have the right to burn everything down and demand reparations.

Waiting for the Flush Dog and Retriever's Union to go out on strike. Always been a tough union, prone to wildcat strikes every year.

I don't see where this is any worse than using an ox to pull a plow or a mule or horse to pull a wagon but it's an indication of how silly and PC things are getting.

Hey, yeah! Let me get a dolly -- there's a LOT of stuff I want to steal.

They're not bad about biting?

Maybe they should protest the slaughter houses...Wait..Hold on..most of us support that enterprise by eating meat... I'm sick of the influence that the Black lives matter has over America....I consider that all lives matter what ever color you are!..... I may have to reconsider renewing my Costco card when due..

They make those poor monkeys climb trees? That's awful.

The Welsh have a sport called "ferret legging." You wear baggy white pants, with the ankles tied tight. You drop a ferret down your pants, tighten your belt, and stand there. Whoever stands still the longest wins.

he hated my brother and bit him all the time,

No offense meant, but any critter that bites me will only bite me once.
