Teacher fail?

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20081205/...s/slave_lesson

The gist of the story is that a teacher, in order to explain the hardships of black slavery to her class, decided to bind the hands and feet of two black students and have them feel what it was like. One of the students got upset and the mother complained.

I can definitely see the mother's point of view. That's a pretty messed up way to teach slavery. But I don't think the teacher should be fired.

Opinions?

Wrong. If that was the case no idea would ever be good, because someone will always get upset about something. Goddamned PC bullshit rearing its fugly head again. And of course, the final line was to be expected. "You caused me to be butthurt, I may sue!" Assholes. So many fucking assholes in the world. So few bullets.

Re: Teacher fail?

Bah. This PC bullshit goes too damned far sometimes. It was a LESSON about their ancestors and what they went through. I wish that my teachers would have been as creative in high school.

The mom and daughter sound like a bunch of whiny bitches looking for a quick lawsuit.

Re: Teacher fail?

And you know there's at least 50 scumbag lawyers out there right now crawling all over each other to get the case.

Oh yeah. I started getting letters from lawyers before I even KNEW that the judgment was against me. Mystified me, until I got a notice from the court like a week later.
