This is an exact recount of US National Public Radio (NPR) interview between
a female broadcaster, and US Army General Reinwald who was about 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 range 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.

:D

I would have loved to have heard that interview. Its a good thing he already made his star though. That kind of stuff makes congress get all weird.
 
I would have loved to have heard that interview, too, but it would have been kind of difficult since it never took place. It is an urban legend based on an old joke, and it's being vectored wildly by people putting it on their web pages with claims that it is an "actual transcript." See the Urban Legends reference page at Snopes, and go ahead and start on this exact one.... http://snopes.simplenet.com/spoons/faxlore/reinwald.htm . Sorry to be the killjoy here.....but I am a friend to the truth, always...

duck hunt,

Thank you for the update.

Wouldn't it have been great if this "interview" took place on Larry King Live???

sbryce,

Good one. :)

Actually, I was imagining a scenario where the General was arguing with a woman guest, and Larry King was the mediator. But who knows, maybe Larry King is "equipped"...

I wouldn't be surprised. These days, very little shocks me. ;)
