The following was passed along to me and originated from the office of =
Rep. Edward Royce, R- California it is from an excerpt from a local radio =
interview............

The FEMALE NEWSCASTER is interviewing the leader of a scout troop:

Newscaster: "So, Mr. Jones, what are you going to do with these children =
on this adventure holiday?

Mr. Jones: "We're going to teach them climbing, canoeing, archery and =
shooting."

Newscaster: "SHOOTING! That's a bit irresponsible, isn't it?

Mr. Jones: "I don't see why. They'll be properly supervised at the =
range."

Newscaster: "Don't you admit that this is a terrible dangerous activitiy =
to be teaching children?"

Mr. Jones: "I don't see how. We will be teaching them proper range =
discipline before they even touch a firearm."

Newscaster: "But you're equiping them to become violent killers!"

Mr. Jones: "Well, you're equipped to be a prostitute, but you're not one, =
are you?"

END OF INTERVIEW!
