an Unemployed Man Rioted in a Rhino Pen
A man in 30's went into a rhino pen and rioted for three and a half hours. There were two white rhinos in the pen, but zoo keepers deftly got them into a shed, causing no injuries.
Gwachon Police Dept. said on June 4 that, on the previous day around 4:40pm, Mr. Lee(age:36) suddenly went into a white rhino pen at the Zoo of Seoul Grand Park, Gwachon City. Over three meter wide trench was dug separating the pen and spectators, but he went all the down to the bottom of 2.5 meter deep trench and climbed up its wall and over its fence.
He pushed away zoo keepers who tried to drag him out and climbed 25 meter up an zelkova tree, cursing and shouting, "I want to set fire on the whole world. I will kill you all."
He later muttered, "I am a healthy man, but nobody offers me a job. I was mad. That's why," according to the police. He voluntarily climbed down after police's pea around 8:10pm on the same day, gave a statement and was released.

But it did make for a colorful picture.
Guy up in tree with the police throwing peas at him while two white rhinos watch through the bars of their pen.
"honestly Wilbur, people are strange aren't they?"
You are right. In that case, cops are also zoo material.:)
Then the two white RINOs, Senators John McCain and Arlen Specter were later released from the shed so they could vote for amnesty for illegal aliens.
No, no, it's "pee", misspelt.
The police surrounded him and peed on him, demonstrating to him that he really is as lowly and pathetic as he was screaming about all day, so he gave up.
Now, returning to the actual story, think about how lowly this guy turns out to be: he goes nuts, charges the rhinoceri (who ignore him), climbs a tree and screams epithets at people all day because he can't get a job, has the police coax him down, and doesn't even get charged with anything.
So, not only can't he get a job or persuade the police to arrest him, he doesn't even have the presence to be able to anger a pair of rhinoceri when he's TRYING to do it.
This is the true meaning of nebbish!
Yeah, I bet his low self-esteem plummeted even lower.
Honestly who among us has not been tempted to climb a tree in a rhino pen?
The Jews have that great word, "nebbish", but this guy's case could be the inspiration for one of those short phrases that come out the Orient sounding like ancient Chinese wisdom, something like "the worm the fisherman rejected".
With all that security? How did he manage to get on the floor of the Senate to begin with?
LOL!
Cool, aren't they? That looks like a Black Rhino with you there, but I can't be sure with that angle.
I have that temptation every time I see my boss coming. The difference is that I actually have the opportunity! LOL
We need to hire those guys to put Mclame and Magic Bullet-Scottish Law Spectorator in the shed.
He shoulda tried that on the hippos. They're near-sighted and nervous.
Whenever I went to the zoo in Korea I always saw Korean men rioting......they were always throwing rocks and bottles at the animals. But the best rioting of all can be seen at a pro baseball game in Pusan....especially when the team from Kwangju is in town!
Both Pusan and Kwangju folks are freaks(ttorai). To them, flipping is a laudable quality.:)
