I would take a guess that some of those monkeys are probably posting in this forum.

Half a fact - we share a more recent common ancestor with apes and chimps, but not with monkeys; and as a point of information, the OPs link is about a chimp, not a monkey.
(most monkeys have tails, apes and hominids do not).

Your view is understandable, as you and facts/reality are not often in congruence.
btw, you appear to be confusing legality with taxonomy....
Facts - you don't need steenkin' facts.....
