A Marine Corp general was being interviewed on NPR about his sponsorship of a Boy Scout troop at his base:
REPORTERETE: So, General, what things are you going to teach these young boys while theyre visiting your base?
GENERAL: Were going to teach them climbing, canoeing, and shooting.
REPORTERETE: Shooting! Thats a bit irresponsible, isnt it?
GENERAL: Not at all, theyll be properly supervised on the rifle range.
REPORTERETE: Dont you admit that this is a terribly dangerous activity to be teaching children?
GENERAL: No we are very safety conscious and will be teaching them proper rifle discipline before they even touch a firearm.
REPORTERETE: But youre equipping them to become violent killers.
GENERAL: Well, Maam, youre equipped to be a prostitute, but youre not one, are you?
The radio went silent and the interview ended.
FYI, urban legend. Never happened.
Always liked that one!
