Good afternoon,

My friend Joe sent this to me a little while ago. This is pretty funny:



YOU GOTTA LOVE THE MARINES


Marines Answer to Gun Control

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, 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!!
