Of course the problem with being Tarzan in this day and age, is that his years
of white racist dominance and "speciesism" on the African subcontinent,
dictates that he too, like those other whites in Africa, would be made to
answer for his racist hate-filled sexist criminal past, probably to an
apartheid tribunal, and that at the very least he would have to issue a public
apology to the faculty of Berkeley University for his years insensitivity, and
very possibly his membership in the Republican Party as well. Of course if he
came out of the jungle closet so to speak, and admitted that he was gay, all
would be forgiven immediately.
