Wrong place and wrong time. Guess he is trying to show support for blacks that are wrongly convicted. Perhaps he should address how they got there in the first place.

Address and change the SCHOOL-TO-PRISON PIPELINE [INFOGRAPHIC]


The ACLU is committed to challenging the "school-to-prison pipeline," a disturbing national trend wherein children are funneled out of public schools and into the juvenile and criminal justice systems. Many of these children have learning disabilities or histories of poverty, abuse or neglect, and would benefit from additional educational and counseling services. Instead, they are isolated, punished and pushed out.

"Zero-tolerance" policies criminalize minor infractions of school rules, while cops in school lead to students being criminalized for behavior that should be handled inside the school. Students of color are especially vulnerable to push-out trends and the discriminatory application of discipline.
