General Cosgrove was interviewed on the radio recently.  

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 an
ABC   radio interview between a female broadcaster and General Cosgrove who
was about to sponsor a Boy Scout Troop visiting his military Headquarters. 


FEMALE INTERVIEWER: 
So, General Cosgrove, what things are you going to teach these young boys
when they visit your base? 

GENERAL COSGROVE: 
We're going to teach them climbing, canoeing, archery and shooting. 
 
 
FEMALE INTERVIEWER: 
Shooting! That's a bit irresponsible, isn't it? 

GENERAL COSGROVE: 
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 COSGROVE: 
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 COSGROVE: 
Well, Ma'am, you're equipped to be a prostitute, but you're not one, are
you? 

The radio cast went silent for 46 seconds and when it returned, the
interview was over.
