Something to be learned from this. Love those Aussies (pity they can’t play cricket or rugby 🙂

General Cosgrove was interviewed on the radio recently concerning guns and children. This is a portion of an ABC interview between a female broadcaster and General Cosgrove who was about to sponsor a Boy Scout Troop visiting his military headquarters.

[For those that don’t know him, Major General Peter Cosgrove is an “Australian treasure!”]

FEMALE INTERVIEWER:  
So, General Cosgrove, what things are you going to teach these young boys when 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 teaching children?

GENERAL COSGROVE:  
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 COSGROVE:  
Well, Ma’am, you’re equipped to be a prostitute, but you’re not one, are you?
