A little ditty that may or may not have happened but could!

>A biker is riding by 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 NYT reporter has seen the whole scene, and addressing the biker,
says, '
Sir, this was the most gallant and brave thing I saw a man do in my
whole life.'
'Why, it was nothing, really, the lion was behind bars. I just saw
this little kid in danger, and acted as I felt right.'
'Well, I'll make sure this won't go unnoticed. I'm a journalist from
the New York Times , you know, and tomorrow's paper will have this on
the first page. What do you do for a living and what political
affiliation do you have?'
' I am a U.S. Marine and a Republican. '
The journalist leaves.
The following morning the biker buys The New York Times to see if it
indeed brings news of his actions, and reads, on first page:
U.S. MARINE ASSAULTS AFRICAN IMMIGRANT AND STEALS HIS LUNCH.
