A Harley rider is passing the zoo, 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 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 accordingly.” "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 deed, and reads, on front page:
U.S. MARINE ASSAULTS AFRICAN IMMIG RANT AND STEALS HIS LUNCH.
