A man is taking a walk in Central park in New York. Suddenly he sees a little girl being attacked by a pit bull dog. He runs over and starts fighting with the dog. He succeeds in killing the dog and saving the girl's life.

A policeman who was watching the scene walks over and says: "You are a hero, tomorrow you can read it in all the newspapers: "Brave New Yorker saves the life of little girl".
The man says: -"But I am not a New Yorker!"
Oh then it will say in newspapers in the morning: "Brave American saves life of little girl" - the policeman answers.
"But I am not an American!" - says the man.
"Oh, what are you then?"

The man says: "I am a Pakistani!"

The next day the newspapers says: "Islamic extremist kills innocent American dog."

could be reality in the us, since it s all just a matter of "perception"
