Being Equipped

The other day when a Marine Corps General was being interviewed on the radio by a female Interviewer, she asked, “So, General, what things are you going to teach these young boys when they visit your base?” The General responded, “We're going to teach them climbing, canoeing, archery, and shooting.” And the Interviewer exclaimed, “Shooting! Isn't that a bit irresponsible?” Then the General explained, “I don't see why. They'll be properly supervised on the rifle range.”

After a short pause, the Interviewer asked, “Don't you admit that this is a terribly dangerous activity to be teaching children?” The General replied, “I don't see how. We will be teaching them proper rifle discipline before they even touch a firearm.” And the Interviewer insisted and said, “But you're equipping them, to become violent killers.” The General then said, “Well, you're equipped to be a prostitute, but you're not one. Are you?”
