High School Math Proficiency Exam: The Truth

  Name: ________________________________   Gang: _______________
   
  1.  Johnny has an AK47 with a 40 round clip.  If he misses 6 out of
  10 shots and shoots 13 times at each drive-by shooting, how many
  drive-by shootings can he attend before he has to reload?
   

A teacher in Kansas actually gave this exam (it's been a "junk" fax sent to random fax machines for a few years now) and got fired for it. The media jumped all over the guy but he said he was just trying to speak their language. Some of the kids complained that if they answered correctly they thought the teacher would have them arrested because they knew how to sell drugs, etc. Ain't America Great?
