    Regardless of how you feel about gun laws you gotta love this!!!! I was
    listening to the radio the other day, and I heard one of the all-time best
    comeback lines in my life. Note: This is an exact replication of National
    Public Radio (NPR) interview between a female broadcaster,and US Army
    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. And all I could think
    was, Go Army!
