Going out on a low note.

Quote: "A Mobile, Alabama, teacher's math quiz Friday turned out to be racist and offensive. The quiz contained math questions that referenced drugs and prostitution and included stereotypical names."

I think she was just pissed off at the system and it was her way of saying fuck you.

Lol, it's kinda funny though... a teacher giving a test like that to her students.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."

Now she's suspended a couple of weeks before her retirement. Hope it affects her pension.

Honestly I don't think I saw much racism in this. There were some Hispanic names in there, but there were some white names, too.
