Teacher apologizes for asking students to write about who they'd kill (http://abclocal.go.com/ktrk/story?section=nation_world&id=4173022)

(5/15/06 - ST. JOSEPH, MO) - A high school teacher has apologized for asking students to write about who they would kill and how they would do it, and officials said he will likely keep his job.

This sh*t-for-brains is going to keep "teaching"?!

Michael Maxwell, who teaches industrial technology .....An IED class?

. . . his request that students in his beginning drafting class describe how they would carry out a murder was merely a writing prompt. It was not clear why he asked the drafting class to write fiction. Well, you have to give students a topic they're interested in to get them to write. In Texas, he might even get an A-Plus Teacher slip in his box for encouraging students to express themselves in writing to help prepare for the statewide test. And who said it was fiction anyway?

Would they get extra credit if they said "Osama Bin Laden"?
