4. I disagree with you
There are two ways - one is is racist; two -it is promoting the assassination of the President by the police. It's inferences are frightening.

6. if they are depicting the assasination of the President as a chimp, that's racist imo

i understand what you're saying, i see it mostly as racist and the assasination of the president is equally as repugnant...

9. I am finally caught up on this story.
Why would the cartoonist and the NYPost make a funny about that chimp attack anyway? I guess they didn't know the woman's face was ripped off. :(

11. I don't get it at all...
unless they're trying to say the bill was written by a chimp in Connecticut, wasn't it? Maybe they're referring to Lieberman?
