Marine Corps General Reinwald was interviewed on the radio the other

day and you'll love 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 REIN WALD: 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!

AMERICA , THE HOME OF THE FREE BECAUSE OF THE BRAVE!!

Sorry, not true.

Great story, but it's a decade-old hoax.

I personally remember seeing this five or six years ago with relationship to an Army general interviewed.

There IS NO General Reinwald. Even the name was made up.

Whether true or not, it should be true.

Still a funny story either way. And, I've learned a great new comeback line that I'm sure I'll be able to slip into a conversation sometime.
