E-RFD: Zoo Rescue
Oregon's only conservative politician was riding his Harley
by the
zoo one day when he saw a little girl leaning into the lion's cage.
Suddenly,
the lion grabbed her by the cuff of her jacket and tried to pull her
inside to devour her, right in front the little girl's screaming
parents.
He rode up to the spot, got off his bike, ran to the cage, and hit the
lion square on
the nose with a powerful punch. Whimpering from pain, the lion jumped
back letting go of the little girl, and the man brought her to her
terrified parents, who thanked him endlessly.
A reporter saw the whole scene, and addressed the man
saying, "Sir, that was the bravest thing I ever saw a man do in
my entire life. Who are you?"
Fully aware of the local paper's political stance, the biker
said, "Just another heroic Republican conservative"
His eyes narrowing, the journalist said, "I'll make sure this
won't go unnoticed. Tomorrow my paper will have this on the
front page."
The journalist left and the following morning the biker bought
the paper to see if it indeed mentioned his actions. Sure
enough, on front page he read the following headline:
"Right Wing Motorcycle
Gangster Assaults African Immigrant and Steals His Lunch."
| Note: E-RFDs are messages that
circulate around the
internet. Some are factual and some are mythical. We make
no
distinction between the types, here, but rather offer them pretty much
as they come in -- as examples of comment and rumor from a global mind. |
