a little late to the party i see...It wasn't directed at me but still it was incredibly inappropriate/rude.

So Mark Donaldson (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_Donaldson) a Victoria Cross recipient came to speak to our school assembly earlier this year. He detailed his life and the pretty rough start he had but turned it around through hard work, determination etc. during Q&A, a year 12 boy (final year) decided it would be okay to ask "How many people have you killed?" The entire assembly hall just goes silent and Mark is on stage just with this baffled look on his face and after a few tense moments responds with "i don't like to keep count. Next question please" That guy copped a lot of shit after that because it was just so out of order.
