Australian - Great "Come back line"!!!!!
 From the Former Chief of Staff!!Mike THE BEST COMEBACK LINE EVER? General Cosgrove was interviewed on the radio the other day and you'll love his reply to the lady who interviewed him concerning guns and children. Regardless of how you feel about gun laws you got to love this!!!! This is one of the best comeback lines of all time. It is a portion of ABC 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 went silent and the interview ended. |

Re: Australian - Great "Come back line"!!!!!
I think the story is hilarious for the same reason, plus I've been shooting since I was a wee one (26 years old and still no shooting sprees), so it has added appeal.

Re: Australian - Great "Come back line"!!!!!
I really don't see what's so wrong about teaching kids to shoot. As long as you teach them well and responsibly, they won't go on massive shooting sprees.
