BEST response ever!!!

For those that don't know him, Major General Peter Cosgrove is an Australian

General Cosgrove was interviewed on the radio recently.

Read his reply to the lady who interviewed him concerning guns and children.

Regardless of how you feel about gun laws you have to love this! This is one of the best comeback lines of all time.

In a portion of an ABC radio interview between a female broadcaster and General Cosgrove who was about to sponsor a Boy Scout Troop visiting his military Headquarters.

FEMALE INTERVIEWER:

So, General Cosgrove, what things are you going to teach these young boys when they visit your base?

GENERAL COSGROVE:!

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

FEMALE INTERVIEWER:

Shooting! That's a bit irresponsible, isn't it?

GENERAL COSGROVE:

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 COSGROVE:

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 COSGROVE:

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

The radio-cast went silent for 46 seconds and when it returned, this interview was over.

I received this in an email. LMFAO!!!

Reminds me of a bit Dave Chappelle does talking about how women dress.

...oh..here it is.

^ LMFAO!!

Nice comeback.

There is something wrong with people that take the approach that proper instruction isn't valuable. The Boy Scouts teach archery and shooting. Its where a lot of boys learned how to do things the proper way.

Then again too, they also taught boys how to be courteous...

I guess she doesn't like them being taught that either...

Great Story- Snopes says no. Used to be someone else's name, Army said no one existed by that name, ever.Rest of story exactly the same. Heard a very similar fishing story.

Snopes is controlled by George Soros and cannot be believed.

thats som funny chit.....

Yeah...I know I've heard this before...I think as a punchline in a joke, many years ago. Really.

Still makes a damn good story and a very good point
