The Best Comeback Line Ever
This is a transcript of a 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?
