Teach them a lesson in terror

In the US we won't even allow kids to draw guns on paper when they are in school.
Mascots representing any sort of violence (Roman soldiers, Minutemen, etc.) cannot hold weapons.
The slightest threat can get you booted from school.
Having a gun in your vehicle, even off campus can get you expelled.

All of this is ridiculous, but in Australia, a teacher has gone all the way in the other direction by assigning a project to his/her students (no name or sex was mentioned in the article).
The project?
Plan a terrorist attack designed to cause the maximum number of casualties.
It comes as no surprise that people freaked when they found out about it and the project was immediately cancelled (Ya think?).
