What General Reinwald Thinks About Gun Control

[sickofthehandouts]

Marine Corps General Reienwald was interviewed on the radio the other day by a female interviewer concerning guns and children.  Regardless of how you feel about gun control this is one of the best comeback lines of all times.  It is a portion of a National Public Radio (NPR) interview between the female broadcaster and US Marine Corps General Reinwald as he was preparing 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?

The radio went silent and the interview ended. You gotta love the Marines.<.pre>

In other news - a new novel has hit #1 on the NY Times best seller list.

The title?...

"Life in a Bubble" by sickofthehandouts

It may be an urban legend but it's still a good one.

You are new here, so I'll humor you. This one crops up at least once a quarter and makes the rounds. Yes, it's cute. Yes, it's very illustrative. But like Laz has already posted, it is entirely FALSE.

FR's search function takes a bit of getting used to, but try searching on keyords like "Reinwald", "Prostitute", or "Gun Control". You can see it comes up a couple of times...

Just some friendly advice...

ROTFLMAO...

[Billthedrill]

That's nuthin' - the French outlawed the use of the term "email" - I'm thinking you ought to post that one...

Not a problem. ;-) Besides, even after seeing it so many times, it still gives me a chuckle....

It's true. But here in America, they are planning to tax emails at 5 cents per email. You should call your congressperson and ask them to oppose bill 602P!

"...attributed to "Marine Corps General Reinwald."

"The U.S. Army denies that there is a Lieutenant General Reinwald..."

Snopes asked the WRONG service!:^}

I think George Carlin wrote that one.

What they REALLY like, and would never Zot is a picture or two depicting an act of sodomy.
