OK so I had to look around a lot for tweets about the gorilla that was shot because some dumb kid jumped into the pen with him at the Cincinnati zoo.
But this one has to be one of the stupidest tweets of all times:

A lot of people noticed the stupidity and pointed out to him that 1) the kid wasn’t white, he was black, and 2) the gorilla wasn’t brought anywhere, he was actually raised in a zoo for the sake of conservation. But don’t let facts get in your way!!
I honestly can’t tell if this guy is just trolling people. Either way, stare at it and laugh, because a lot of people actually think this way.
On the other hand, Black Twitter had some really funny jokes about the terrible story – here are some others:

And finally, for the sake of an OPEN THREAD, I’m gonna add this one because it made me laugh a lot in a pretty terrible week:
