Bike at the Zoo
into the lion's cage. Suddenly, the lion grabs her by the cuff of her
jacket and tries to pull her inside to slaughter her under the eyes of
her screaming parents.
The biker jumps off his bike, runs to the cage and hits the lion square
on the nose with a powerful punch. Whimpering from the pain the lion
jumps back, letting go of the girl, and the biker brings her to her
terrified parents, who thank him endlessly.
A New York Times reporter has watched the whole event. The reporter
says, "Sir, this was the most gallant and brave thing I saw a man do in
my whole life." The biker replies, "Why, it was nothing, really, the
lion was behind bars. I just saw this little kid in danger, and acted as
I felt right."
The reporter says, "Well, I'm a journalist from the New York Times, and
tomorrow's paper will have this story on the front page... so, what do
you do for a living and what political affiliation do you have?"
The biker replies, "I'm a U.S. Marine and a Republican."
The following morning the biker buys The New York Times to see if it
indeed brings news of his actions, and reads, right on front page:
"U.S. MARINE ASSAULTS AFRICAN IMMIGRANT AND STEALS HIS LUNCH."
