Marines Answer to Gun Control

[greeneyedlady]

Marine Corps' 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.

I'm very big on gun safety. there is nothing wrong with teaching kids about guns and how to use them properly. It is no different than sending them to karate or simmilar "self-defense" classes. As long as you teach kids to use these things for defense and even then as a last resort.

If we can blame guns for killings, then I can blame my pencil for misspelled words.

And after you blame your pencil for misspelled words you can sue the company that made the pencil
