Just because they overlap traits with us doesn't mean they are human and that we can't kill and eat them. Killing and eating a chimp is not murder, neither is it cannibalism. Of course I do not hunt and eat chimps and have no desire to, but I fully support any human out there who does want to do so, if it is done in a legal and ethical way on a healthy population that is properly managed.

My issue here is that your argument is exactly what is used by animal rights groups to pursue their goal of eliminating all animal use.

So, what do you think on this one:
Would you use a chimp for medical tests?
