HARLEY BIKER
AND LION
A Harley biker is riding by the zoo in Washington, DC
when he sees a little girl leaning 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 Harley, 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 reporter has watched the whole event. The reporter addressing the
Harley rider says, 'Sir, this was the most gallant and brave thing
I've seen a man do in my whole life.'
The Harley rider 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'll make sure this won't go unnoticed. I'm a
journalist, 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 journalist leaves.
The following morning the biker buys the paper to see news of his actions, and
reads, on the front page:
U.S. MARINE
ASSAULTS AFRICAN IMMIGRANT
AND STEALS HIS LUNCH
