    what's the problem?
    if the question directly asked a student to pick the best angle to kill someone with, THEN that would be inappropriate.

    People have too much time on their hands. Just because one question goes against conventional values and norms, people go berzerk. It's only a question people!

    Yeah, I find it sad that someone thought this was even newsworthy..

    Sounds like a cool question to me. I'd love to get a Q like that on my exam. Would make it at least 6% more interesting to write.

    Oh please, what's wrong with the question anyway? People are becoming so sensitive these days. By the way, I have to agree with ralph that this question is quite interesting. If more questions like this were posted, I may have taken Physics 11.

    Apparently, kids in grade 6 can play GTA and run over a bunch of old prostitutes and beat up old women, but kids in grade 11 can't be told to investigate a mock murder victim.

    HORRAY FOR IRONY.

    God, I hate some adults these days. Fuck off and find something else to do besides bitching about everything. I got these kind of questions as well, and no one said anything.

    If you think some kid is going to turn violent because of a physics question, you're delusional and paranoid. Stop watching the news.

    I once got an exam question wrong so the professor smacked me. Now that was a violent exam question.
