That topic will go over well, especially if your teacher is female and a card carrying member of NOW.

Morons can be controversial...Look at Forest Gump and SlingBlade!!!

The only thing controversial about Forest Gump is the fact that for some reason people think that bumbling through life as a lucky retard is admirable.

Tyson is controversial in the sense that...
A) he's a convicted felon/rapist
B) he blew about $300 million dollars in a decade.
C) in his prime he could destroy just about anyone in the ring, but couldn't defend himself against his 115 lb wife on national television.
D) He's the epitome of wasted talent.

In a sense, he was similar to Forest Gump...He was a lucky moron up to a point, then it all went south on him.

Do it on the Unabomber.

His manifesto is very interesting, although it's very badly written.

Treat him as a thinker rather than as a terrorist or a serial killer.

If you don't get expelled, you'll get an A.

Suprising from someone who was considered to have a genius I.Q.

I guess there is a fine line between Genius and Madness.

You can read his manifesto here

He's a good topic for this assignment because"

1) His ideas are uncompromisingly radical.
2) He hates leftists
3) He hates conservatives
4) He hates scientists
5) Most people have never read his manifesto
6) He killed people, which assures him being controversial
7) His own brother turned him in
8) Idaho: 'nuff said
