Best comeback line ever.
The Marine Corps General Reinwald was interviewed on the National Public Radio(NPR) and here a short excerpt. The General was about to sponsor a Boy Scout Troop around his Installation
Regardless of how yu feel about gun laws your gonna love this -
Female interviewer: "So, General Reinwald, what things are you going to teach these young boys when they visit your base?"
GENERAL "Were going to teach them climbing, canoeing, archery, and shooting."
Female interviewer: "Shooting! That's a bit irresponsible, isnt it?"
GENERAL: "I don't see why, they'll be properly supervised on the rifle range."
Female interviewer: "Don't you admit that this is a terrible dangerous activity to be teaching children?"
General: "I don't see how. We will be teaching them proper rifle discipline before they even touch a firearm."
Female interviewer: "But you are equipping them to become violent killers."
GENERAL: "Well, you're equipped to be a prostitute, but you're not one, are you??"
The radio went silent and the interview ended.

That actually made me LOL, literally. Pretty quick wit on the part of the general.

This has been posted here before, in almost exactly the same form, though I can't find it with a search. What's your citation for it? I can't find a reference to it on npr.org, either. Sounds too good to be true. Are you sure this isn't made up?
In fact, it is made up.
When you see a story that just perfectly illustrates one of your pet prejudices, suspect it -- and CHECK IT OUT before spreading it.
The lawyer/cigar/insurance/arson story is another example.
