For those that don't know him, *Major General Peter Cosgrove* is an Australian.
*This is a portion of an ABC radio interview between a female broadcaster and General Cosgrove who was about to sponsor a Boy Scout Troop visiting his military Headquarters.
*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.
*Shooting! That's a bit irresponsible, isn't it?
*I don't see why, they'll be properly supervised on the rifle range.
*Don't you admit that this is a terribly dangerous activity to be teaching children?
*I don't see how. We will be teaching them proper rifle discipline before they even touch a firearm.
*But you're equipping them to become violent killers.
*Well, Ma'am, you're equipped to be a prostitute, but you're not one, are you?
*The broadcast went silent for 46 seconds and when it returned, the interview was over.*
