You'd probably have to send in a few waves of dudes who just grab the gorilla and hold on for dear life. If you get enough holding it down the remainder could pound on its head until it stops moving. The question is how many would be willing to try and bear hug an angry gorilla.
My immediate answer was yeah why not, but then I read the comments about prison fences and realised I was missing some American specific context. The fence's at my schools were waist high with open gates. They were more of a boundary marker than anything else.
Yeah it can be hard to differentiate between criticism and insults online. Often insults will be emotionally driven or have surface level analysis while proper criticism will have deeper insight into the topic and be delivered calmly.
I would assume that anyone reacting in such a manner is immature and insecure in their own work. Insults are often not worth listening or reacting to, constructive criticism is. However if you respond to proper criticism by attacking the critic then you're an ass.
