Equipment

A National Public Radio interview between a female broadcaster and US Army General Ross Reinwald, who was about to sponsor a Boy Scout Troop visiting his military installation.

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."

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."

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."

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
