I'm a Cadet Corporal AAFC, I have Completed Firearms Training Elective, hopefully I will even attend the F88 course,already I have completed several hands on with weapons and I think that giving the youth this opportunity to learn safe proceedures on operating firearms prepares them to use them much more safely in their civillian lives, I have already applied these tactics to regular rifles and I can say it is a hell of alot safer, Good on you general I think that sums up the very argument
I've met the man a few times and I asked him about it. He DID NOT SAY IT! It was said by a Marine General many years ago. He did not say it and he would never say something like that!
The music is more fitted to a memorial for someone's dead dog...
"We'll miss ol' Rusty. He sure was a good boy. He loved to play in our backyard, and go for swims in the pond with the kids. We still have his (sniff, sniff) favorite toy ...we ...keep it right where ...he .....used to ...take his naps near the front porch ***sobs***"
having a gun and the skills to shoot it doesn't make you a killer, killing another person makes you a killer, you can simply do that with your car or a baseball bat. Are they going to call every license driver out there a killer too, or are PC THUGS going to start running away from little leaguers holding baseball bats. For Fucks Sake!
@drakeneyez i kno wat ur trying to say but guns tend to be able to make any1 a killer. point and shoot. as much as people say guns are ment for hunting y do u need an assault rifle to do so. same thing with home defence a pistol would be fine but these people want M16s. its just a matter of keeping guns from the general public so that there is less killing.
The reason no-one can find the audio of this is because the story is apocryphal, it never happened! This is just one of those rehashed stories...claimed to have happened in the US, then in the UK, now in Australia. Next time check if the event has actually occurred before you waste our time!
General Cosgrove said nothing new or original - I heard this phrase long time before. I'm sure he "borrowed" it from somewhere too. Don't make him a hero. He was just quoting an old phrase...
How surprising that it was the ABC. The ABC in Australia are a regressive, socialist pack of idiots. No one pays them much attention. I applaud General Cosgrove for highlighting, yet another brainless twit from the ABC.
Even if you outlawed guns, the people out there killing, robbing and committing crimes are going to get their hands on them anyways. They're already breaking the law when guns are legal, what's going to stop them from continuing doing illegal activities?
There IS NO Audio! This is a WELL KNOWN HOAX! The interview NEVER took Place and the General NEVER made the comment! It is one of the BEST come back lines I have EVER heard, however!
aye someone took this exact video word for word and made it into a little picture that went on funnyjunk. they stole your content and it made the front page. im just saying
This a very funny story - but most likely not real. Because if it WAS real, we'd all be listening to the actual interview instead of a video with printed words. Also, I doubt that a decorated general would say such a thing - they just don't talk that way when dealing with the public.
Why the piano music? Also I would like to know where you can hear this. I have already read it, but would like to hear the silence at the end of the put down. Sorry that I've just taken off one of the thumbs up for Reichsleiter45. Could do with the + being by the up thumb, By the way isn't that rude in Aus. Dave
What a load of horseshit, Cosgrove is one of the stiffest and most honourable blokes around. He certainly wouldn't go around using the borrowed wit of some chain email in an interview like any drunken yob.
You must have received the same exact email as I did about Major General Cosgrove...I have been trying to find the audio from this interview, do you know where I can find it?
This is complete bullshit. Cosgrove didn't say this. It has been bastardised from an interview conducted years ago with a US Marine General in the States.
Please check Snopes...
No he is Welsh...
No he is American...
