 When
I was a senior in high school I took a "crime in America" electives
class because my parents insisted that having a period off would be
nothing but trouble.
So I attend this class which is filled with
stoners. As an example of how bad this class was, the teacher spent the
first 6 weeks in the class trying to teach about the first 10
amendments. 6 weeks for 10 amendments that you should already know.
After
that we move on to drug laws, and she starts this out by giving a
lecture on marijuana and its capabilities to kill brain cells, cause
lung cancer, make you 'stupid.'
I asked her, word for word, "do
you have any studies that substantiate your claims?" and she sends me to
the principals office for 'trying to make her look stupid.'
Later
on she says that "I think these troubles in the middle east could be
solved with one well placed nuke," (this is texas) I again say word for
word 'Aren't you being racist by advocating the extermination of a
certain people because of the actions of a few extremists?' She took me
out in the hall and yelled at me that accusing something of racism isn't
something that you should just throw around.
Later still she
tried to make an example of me for not standing up during the pledge of
allegiance. Not because I was trying to make some naive political
statement, but because I was reading and didn't want to be bothered to
stand just for the pledge. I said that participation in the pledge was
optional, and that I didn't want to participate.
She apparently
thought otherwise, but the principal sided with me on this issue and I
was able to sit, which all the stoners thought was hilarious and so by
the end of the year, only like 5 people in the class of 50 were standing
for the pledge.
I hated that teacher, I have some more stories
too, but these are the ones that immediately come to mind. I still got
the highest grade in the class. |
