I am pretty sure this isn't an article from The Onion

Rialto Unified School District officials first responded last week to reports of the assignment, which asked students to compose a written debate over whether the Holocaust was “merely a political scheme created to influence public emotion and gain.”
The controversial question in the assignment read: “…write an argumentative essay, based upon cited textual evidence, in which you explain whether or not you believe this was an actual event in history or merely a political scheme created to influence public emotion and gain wealth…”
The district initially defended the eighth-grade assignment – which was one part of an 18-piece essay – as an exercise to help students “evaluate the quality of evidence made by advocates or opponents of an issue.”
Rialto Police Captain Randy De Anda told KCAL 9′s Tom Wait the school district’s interim superintendent, Mohammed Z. Islam, received death threats in connection with the assignment. A district spokesperson was also threatened, De Anda said.
Right I'm done too after today... Cashing out later today before I throw it all away.
Looool the finish to the Royal game. Just the worst franchise in pro sports, the longest playoff drought Alex Gordon 0-6 the team is garbage from James Shields to Sal Perez to the 24th man. They should dynamite the stadium like yesterday . I'm dead serious . Sell em move em. Good riddance
Lol thinking about calling into the post game, but I'm not at my best. Just an absolute abortion. Almost thirty years without a playoff appearance. Generation after generation of loser ball players. From the Mike Sweeneys to Joe Randas, Billy Butlers lol
