Subject: You Gotta Love the Marines!



Marine interview on the radio! I love it
Marine Corp's 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!

That is funny, but unfortunately it is a hoax.
