in 2010, congressman Hank Johnson (D, Ga) famously worried that Guam might "tip over and capsize” if thousands of US troops were relocated there from okinawa.
Alex Jones has in the past wondered what would happen if a hurricane triggered Rep. Johnson's mechanism in florida

an eleventh grade anatomy class at Westside High School
Jacksonville dad outraged by sexually explicit question on daughter's anatomy assignment 
“Ursula was devastated when her boyfriend broke up with her after having sex. To get revenge, she had sex with his best friend the next day. Ursula had a beautiful baby girl 9 months later. Ursula has type O blood, her ex-boyfriend is type AB blood, and his best friend is type A blood. If her baby daddy is her ex-boyfriend, what could her baby’s possible blood type(s) NOT be?”
(a) A
(b) B
(c) O
(d) both A and B

(d) both A and B
The blood type of her ex-bf’s best friend is clearly irrelevant to the question.

I think people are upset by the sexually explicit nature of the question

there are tables all over the internet
The one I saw said that if the mother is O and the father AB, there is a 50% chance of the baby being A and a 50% chance of the baby being B
The answer would be (c) O, and as you say, the blood type of the best friend is a red herring. The baby's gender also seems to be a red herring, at least for this question

fwiw, if the best friend who  is  A turns out to be the father, there is a 75%  chance the baby is A and 25% chance he is O

How in the world is this "sexually explicit"????? There is no explicit descriptions of either anatomy or activity.

At worst, the question poses a hypothetical involving what some might consider immoral behavior and what others call "none of your business."

What is the probability this knowledge is useful to some student in this exact setting at some point in their life?
>0% I suspect.

As a problem it seems to tick the three Reithian boxes.
