I'd have done the same if I was a rock monster.

Whoa, prejudiced much?! The creature was certainly made of rock, but clearly not a monster. How about you mammals have some goddamn sensitivity for other forms of life?!

I will, just as soon as they stop being MONSTERS.

What the hell are you talking about, you lousy rockist?! Dude was clearly an artist, busy working in his studio. Then that fucking asshole gravity stole a piece of his building material and threw it at the city. Our rock dude acted like a goddamn hero and tried to save the city and what does its citizens do? Act just like white cop confronting someone with brown skin, be it flesh or rock, and just starts shooting.

Now we got apologists like you, coming outta the woodwork (what, afraid to live among rocks?!) to name call. Makes me so sick, I'm gonna go set something on fire.

I may share Dr. Tolkien's dislike of allegory but on the other hand, I love wordplay as in the title of this. Excellently done, thanks for the link.
