Honesty is not the best policy!
My teacher asked us what our favorite animal was? When it came my turn I said, "fried chicken."
She said I wasn't funny, but she couldn't have been right because everyone else in the class laughed.
My parents told me to always be truthful and honest, and I am. Fried chicken is my favorite animal.
I told my dad what happened, and he said my teacher was probably a member of PETA.
He said they love animals very much. I do, too. Especially chicken.
Anyway, my teacher sent me to the principal's office.
I told him what happened, and he laughed too. Then he told me not to do it again.
The next day in class my teacher asked me what my favorite "LIVE" animal was.
I told her it was "a chicken".
She asked me why, just like she'd asked the other children. So I told her it was because you could make them into fried chicken.
She sent me back to the principal's office again. He laughed, and told me not to do it again.
I don't understand. My parents taught me to be honest, but my teacher doesn't like it when I am.
Today, my teacher asked us to tell her what famous person we admire most.
I told her, "Colonel Sanders".
Guess where I am now....

That's a funny story. But in my opinion you all ways do what is right, regardless the consequences. However things can get a little sticky because what is right is not always what it appears to be. Because if telling the truth leads to a greater evil than I would say lie to protect the innocent. But in this incident what evil will come of telling the truth? I don't see any other than someone might be offended. But that's the price for freedom of speech. And I would rather have people be offended than not have the right to speak freely. However, with freedom comes responsibility. That means being respectful and not needlessly offending. So tell the truth so long as innocent people don't get hurt and speak the truth with respect. Side: Wait..., What? No!
