How slap a journalist down!

[Brocks]

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.

Fantastic...journalist rate the same as politicians in my books..pond scum!

Reminds me of one of my days training in the Navy. I was square bashing, being balled at by a very loud Petty Officer. A very posh female Lieutenant came out of the building and asked him to be quiet.

He looked at her in disgust and replied " It's alright for you ma'am, you've only got one c*nt to look after, I've got 14".

Funniest thing I ever heard!
