I guess MX riders do it all the time. But for high speed street riding. The idea makes me cringe. I found a set of forks on E bay for 60 dollars.

But like Jasle said if you have tools and time you can straighten fork tubes. They are mild steel and not hardened.
Yeah I am just going to buy a used fork. I stopped by a local motorcycle dealership after class today and they said not to try and get my bent fork straightened. So with the advice I have been given I decided to go the buy used route.
