THE BEST Put Down LINE EVER

For those that don't know him, Major General Peter Cosgrove is an'Australian treasure!'

General Cosgrove was interviewed on the radio recently.You'll love his reply to the lady who interviewed him concerning guns andchildren. Regardless of how you feel about gun laws you have to love this!It is one of the best comeback lines of all time. It is a portion of an ABCinterview between a female broadcaster and General Cosgrove, who was aboutto sponsor a Boy Scout Troop visiting his military headquarters.

FEMALE INTERVIEWER:
So, General Cosgrove, what things are you going to teach these young boyswhen 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 teachingchildren?
GENERAL COSGROVE:I don't see how. We will be teaching them proper rifle discipline beforethey 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, areyou?

The radio went silent and the interview ended.
