Has anyone seen this? (Good Laugh!)

Got this in an email from a friend today....


This is an exact transcript of a
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
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.


Heh...

IIRC, this is urban legend, but cute anyway.

Dr. Deming's case is documented and quite well known.

The NPR interview is an urban legend that dates back at least four years: http://www.snopes.com/military/reinwald.htm

Urban legend or not that is still freakin' hilarious

It might just be a verbal slight of hand, but if Dr. Deming had said "A woman", instead of specificly addressing one woman, he may have had more support.
Just my .02 opinion.

Yep , really funny though however it was put. I agree.
