How to offend people and start a flame war.

There is an interesting conversation going on over at MetaChat based on the topic:
If you wanted to post an Ask Metafilter question that would generate a lot of controversy, a flamewar, or just incredulity, what would you post? Please don't actually post anything that gets suggested here. I just love to think of bizarre questions. The ideal candidate would cause an uproar, but wouldn't violate the guidelines or otherwise be considered delete-worthy.
And some of the great responses:

"I would like to move soon. What major urban area in the US has the lowest population of [insert name of ethnic group of choice here]?"

"When is it okay to hit your spouse?"

"I'm really tired of my cat and I want to give her an overdose of heroin. Where can I buy the heroin and how much should I give her? She only weighs about 3 pounds since I stopped feeding her a while back."

"I cheated on my girlfriend with her sister, and now the sister's pregnant. Also, my girlfriend is blind. Where can I find a crack for Firefox?"
