Obviously not real...
« on: January 21, 2012, 09:37:41 PM »
nor gun related, but a fairly accurate portrayal of the media:

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 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, you know, and tomorrow's papers will have this on the first page.

What motorcycle do you ride? - A Harley Davidson.

The journalist leaves.

The following morning the biker buys the paper to see if it indeed brings news of his actions, and reads, on first page:
BIKER GANG MEMBER ASSAULTS AFRICAN IMMIGRANT AND STEALS HIS LUNCH.

Straight out of the Journal Star, huh?
The master has failed more than the beginner has even tried.

You got the name slightly wrong.  It's Urinal Star.  :)
Gun related issues are, by nature, deadly serious.  Still, you have to maintain a sense of humor about them.
