      Maybe you should wisen up & not make racist jokes. “@SenJohnMcCain: Re: Iran space tweet - lighten up folks, can't everyone take a joke?”

      @repjustinamash Curious if you'd have reacted the same way if @SenJohnMcCain made that comment about the president or if you'd been ok w/it.

      @Writer1113 Same reaction. "Monkey" has historical connotation assoc w/racism. Should not use on anyone if open to misinterpretation.

          @repjustinamash Do not agree with you attacking John McCain over an Iranian Terrorist. You really should focus your efforts on other things

          @repjustinamash the term 'monkey' also has historical associations with every human being and, coincidentally,with monkeys!
