found this somewhere today,the man has a great point

Marine Corps General Reinwald was interviewed on the radio the other day
and you have to read his reply to the lady who interviewed him oncerning
guns and children. Regardless of how you feel about gun laws you got to
love this!!!! This is one of the best comeback lines of all time.

It is a portion of a National Public Radio (NPR) interview between a
female broadcaster and US Marine Corps General Reinwald who was about to
sponsor a Boy Scout Troop visiting his military installation.


FEMALE INTERVIEWER: So ... General Reinwald ... what things are you
going to teach these young boys when they visit your base?

GENERAL REINWALD: We're going to teach them climbing, canoeing, archery
and shooting.

FEMALE INTERVIEWER: Shooting !!! ... isn't that a bit irresponsible ???

GENERAL REINWALD: Well I don't see why ... they'll be properly
supervised on the rifle range.

FEMALE INTERVIEWER: Don't you admit that this is a terribly dangerous
activity to be teaching children?

GENERAL REINWALD: I don't see how ... we will be teaching them proper
rifle discipline before they even touch a firearm.

FEMALE INTERVIEWER: But you're equipping them to become killers.

GENERAL REINWALD: Well ma'am ... you're equipped to be a prostitute ...
but you're not ...are you?


Radio falls silent ... interview ends.
