More cops in schools, more kids in jail
Thanks to increased funds from Obama's Justice Department (that he later regretted), there are increasing amounts of police officers in public schools—often disguised behind the benign term "school resource officers"—resulting in an even easier access point for the school-to-prison pipeline.
Indeed, analysis of National Center for Education Statistics data shows students are more likely to enter the criminal justice system if their school has a police presence—oftentimes while still enrolled in school.
That's not to mention the at least 87 Taserings of students that have happened at American public schools since September 2011.
