A GREAT ANSWER TO A DUMB QUESTION

[FastBusa]

Katie Couric, while interviewing a Marine sniper, asked: "What do you feel when you shoot a terrorist?"
The Marine shrugged and replied: "Recoil."
(Hard to fault a Marine that eloquent)
Semper Fi!

"Another of our Vietnam War correspondents told us about a similar comment that was also in circulation at that time:

The other, similar comment was a response to the "hippy" question, "How can you shoot women and children?" Answer:

"They don't run as fast - you have to give them a little less lead."

Same story in Afghanistan & the Russian. A Helo pilot was asked how he can shoot woman and children, "I don't lead them as much:.
