More Pro-Gun Email Propaganda

Anyone know of this?
Sounds good though.



To: Undisclosed-Recipient:;
Subject: Fw: Scouts & Guns


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, Ma'am, 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!

That sounds entirely too good to be true, but I hope it is...

NPR says it didn't happen, so I tend to believe it is fiction (good fiction though)
