Does Miriam Defensor hate Rhinoceroses?


The dictionary defines a rhinoceros as a large, powerful, herbivarous, thick-skinned perissodactyl mammal with two horns. Thus, a rhinoceros is a template for cabinet members and other executive officials who use public funds, or gifts from so-called “friends,” to campaign for next year’s elections. They are all thick-skinned and should be shot on sight.
That was a direct quote from one of her recent famous speeches. Read again the last line. Shot on sight? Is she still referring to the officials?

She used the rhinoceros as a metaphor for human violence and wildlife destruction. Creative. I'm starting to like her some more.

No, I do not support wildlife destruction. I'm an environmental activist. It was her creativity I was attracted to and by the way, this is partly an unfunny joke, do not take it seriously. Treat it like how most public officials treat you like, a joke.
