May be urban legend, but funny anyway...
This is one of the best comeback lines of all time. It is aportion of National Public Radio (NPR) interview betweena female broadcaster and US Marine Corps General Reinwaldwho was about to sponsor a Boy Scout Troopvisiting his military installation.FEMALE INTERVIEWER: So, General Reinwald, what things are yougoing to teach these young boys when they visit your base?GENERAL REINWALD: We're going to teach themclimbing, canoeing, archery, and shooting.FEMALE INTERVIEWER: Shooting! That's a bitirresponsible, isn't it?GENERAL REINWALD: I don't see why, they'll be properlysupervised on the rifle range.FEMALE INTERVIEWER: Don't you admit that this is a terriblydangerous activity to be teaching children?GENERAL REINWALD: I don't see how. We will be teaching themproper rifle discipline before they even touch a firearm.FEMALE INTERVIEWER: But you're equipping themto become violent killers.GENERAL REINWALD: Well, you're equipped to be aprostitute, but you're not one, are you?The radio went silent and the interview ended.

Unfortunately, an urban legend, but still wonderfully accurate. I sure hope to use the line someday. 0
