Marine Corps General Reinwald interview...best comeback ever!

[Volkolak]

Stumbled upon an excerpt from an interview Marine Corps General Reinwald did regarding Boy Scouts visiting his compound:

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.

Hahaha, that has got to be one of the best comebacks ever.

I've heard this many times before, but it's still just as funny as the first !

Great stuff

Not new and not accurate. Check Snopes on this and you'll see it's been debunked.

 

[MSGT9410]

Does that take away from the humor though? Nah!

 

[Volkolak]

Hmm...so it's fake. Sorry!

It's still pretty funny though!

I don't care if its fake or not, it at least sounds like something a Marine would say! SEMPER FI!!!!

There is an article debunking the story, as well as providing some interesting background, available on the Snopes website here.

Even if it's not true....it should be.
