>>This is one of the best comeback lines of all time. It is a portion of
>>National Public Radio (NPR) interview between a female broadcaster and US
>>Marine Corps General Reinwald who was about to sponsor Boy Scouts 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, ma'am, you're equipped to be a prostitute,
>>but you're not one, are you?

You still gotta love the Marines.
Indeed. After all these years of engaging the most dangerous enemies of The Republic they have never lost. God bless them!!
Better to perish in the struggle for freedom than live to see defeat. There ARE things to be feared more than death. The fyrd is a Constitutional imperative.
