IDAHO—There was quite the uproar yesterday on mainstream news outlets when the story of an unnamed Idaho biology instructor snapped a rabbit’s neck in class and skinned it in front of his students.
The class was a group of Sophomores, some of whom probably had seen it all before (hunting, you know…they still do that in this country, and probably without exception in Idaho), this at Columbia High School in Boise on November 6…but there may have been a few wusses in the bunch, hence the level of outcry over such a thing.
While this doesn’t at all rise to the level of what Newton High School teacher’s aide Steve Ochs is alleged to have done a couple of weeks ago (and you can read the thorough coverage at the e-Edition here, complete with an actual photo said to be of the alleged act), it nevertheless made national news all over the country as people were either repulsed by the thing or at least, in our politically-correct, pussified country, pretended to be. (Why Ochs hasn’t made national news yet is one of those mysteries of the ages we see frequently here in southern Illinois, where weird things come in but they don’t go out).
But the object lesson was “where our food comes from,” and if we’ve got a bunch of big-city (such as Boise is, anyway) kids who are that oblivious, well…they needed such a lesson. Those who didn’t want to participate in the lesson were allowed to leave the class in advance of it.
The school, however, is apologizing all over itself for the incident…probably because it’s come to national news attention (unlike Ochs.) And now, they’re saying the unnamed instructor may face disciplinary action.
Why? Is this nonsense? How do you feel about such a lesson in a public school?
