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 concerning guns and children.
Regardless of how you feel about gun laws you gotta love
this!!!!

This is one of the best comeback lines of all time. It is
a portion of 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! That's a bit irresponsible,
isn't it?

GENERAL REINWALD: 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
violent killers.

GENERAL REINWALD: Well, Ma'am, you're equipped to be a
prostitute, but you're not one, are you?

The radio went silent and the interview ended.

You gotta love the Marines!

LOL! Yep, really great comeback to a comment that is too perfect of a set up to be true, even coming from an NPR journalist.

So I Googled it and came up with this:
