Woody Posted February 25, 2009 Posted February 25, 2009 The chimp was apparently given some anti depressant (Zanax) and the owners are considering a lawsuit. Apparently against the makers of the anti depressant. I didn't know that the antidepressants are supposed to be given to chimps. The more likely problem is that the women who had her face and hands eaten ... had just changed her hair style and the chimp may not have recognized her.

Members rudywoofs (Pam) Posted February 25, 2009 Members Posted February 25, 2009 Xanax is an anti-anxiety medication....different than an antidepressant. Fast acting, common medication for humans! Quote Pam Meddle Not In the Affairs of Dragons; for You Are Crunchy and Taste Good with Ketchup. If we all sang the same note in the choir, there'd never be any harmony. Funny, isn't it, how we accept Grace for ourselves and demand justice for others?
Woody Posted February 25, 2009 Author Posted February 25, 2009 I think they considered the chimp to be human. Quote May we be one so that the world may be won. Christian from the cradle to the grave I believe in Hematology.
Doug Posted February 25, 2009 Posted February 25, 2009 I think they considered the chimp to be human. That's their first mistake. And everyone sees why it was a mistake. Quote
Woody Posted February 25, 2009 Author Posted February 25, 2009 Well ... our good ol' American system always manages to find that some big company is responsible. So, in this case ... it will be the drug companies. And then we get to pay higher prices for our drugs that we need. Quote May we be one so that the world may be won.

Administrators Gail Posted February 25, 2009 Administrators Posted February 25, 2009 Xanax is an anti-anxiety medication....different than an antidepressant. Fast acting, common medication for humans! Thanks, Pam. I wondered if that was the one they were talking about (with an "X"). I was thinking the same as you, that it is an anti-anxiety medication, not an anti-depressant. Quote Isaiah 32:17 And the work of righteousness shall be peace; and the effect of righteousness quietness and assurance for ever.
Dottie Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 The owner of the chimp said she thought of him as her son. Okay, so how many of you ladies would sleep with your 200-pound son? Quote
Woody Posted February 26, 2009 Author Posted February 26, 2009 Good one Dottie .... Ha Ha. Quote May we be one so that the world may be won. Christian from the cradle to the grave I believe in Hematology.
Liz Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 I know, that is sick!!!!! I went on a tangent on another thread in the political forum about this--(I got a little mixed up, shocking I know!) But I hate it when humans try and make wild animals, or animals that should be wild, and try and turn them into something that they are not. It always ends up badly for the animals.

Woody Posted February 26, 2009 Author Posted February 26, 2009 How can one make this subject 'political' ? Quote May we be one so that the world may be won. Christian from the cradle to the grave I believe in Hematology.
Liz Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 How can one make this subject 'political' ? I thought that cartoon Neil posted was talking about this incident. So I went off on a tangent on this subject; all the while I am sure people were wondering what the heck I was talking about, because the cartoon was about something completely different. Turns out the cartoon was political and racist to boot. Quote For what will a man be profited, if he gains the whole world, and forfeits his soul?

Moderators Gerr Posted February 26, 2009 Moderators Posted February 26, 2009 All the makers of Zanax have to say is the medicine is meant for humans. But it was probably tried to chimps first!!! Quote
Dr. Shane Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 I thought I read the owner of the chimp said she had not been successful in giving the chimp zanax. Quote Pastoral Family Counselor... Find me at www.PostumCafe.com Author of Peculiar Christianity
Woody Posted February 26, 2009 Author Posted February 26, 2009 That might be another reason to sue Zanax ... not making it tastful enough for the chimp and then he went off and ate the owners friend.

Amelia Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 First off, it is spelled Xanax. Second, REDWOOD that is the most awful thing to say about the tragedy of that woman.

Members phkrause Posted February 26, 2009 Members Posted February 26, 2009 Why blame the medicine? Blame the people who gave it to the chimp. pk Quote phkrause When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice; But when a wicked man rules, the people groan. Proverbs 29;2
Woody Posted February 26, 2009 Author Posted February 26, 2009 Was it their fault that they thought the chimp was human? Ha Ha. Quote May we be one so that the world may be won. Christian from the cradle to the grave I believe in Hematology.
