Tough Bananas, Tommy

Back in May, I had a post called Monkey Suit.  If you don’t remember, you can click the link for details, but the gist was that an animal rights group was suing the owner of a chimpanzee for false imprisonment.

This week, the New York Supreme Court ruled that Tommy the Chimp is not a person and does not enjoy the same basic rights and legal protections as a human being.
