    Post How would you respond to this

    The following text is exactly as I recieved it.


    I reckon this is bloody good.


    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!"
