Military Logic
Extract of a National Public Radio (NPR) interview between a female broadcaster and US Army Lieutenant General Reinwald, about sponsoring a Boy Scout Troop on his military installation.
Interviewer: "So, LtGen. Reinwald, what are you going to do with these young boys on their adventure holiday?"
LtGen. Reinwald: "We're going to teach them climbing, canoeing, archery, and shooting."
Interviewer: "Shooting! That's a bit irresponsible, isn't it?"
LtGen. Reinwald: "I don't see why, they'll be properly supervised on the range."
Interviewer: "Don't you admit that this is a terribly dangerous activity to be teaching children?"
LtGen. Reinwald: "I don't see how, we will be teaching them proper range discipline before they even touch a firearm."
Interviewer: "But you're equipping them to become violent killers."
LtGen. Reinwald: "Well, you're equipped to be a prostitute, but you're not one, are you?"
