Los Angeles County Supervisor Michael D. Antonovich issued the following statement on today’s student walkouts:  
 

“Encouraging students to walk out of class on a school day is a reckless act of exploitation that threatens their safety and the stability of our educational system. 
During walkouts last year, students were walking on the freeway and in busy intersections creating a very dangerous situation for themselves and others. The District Attorney should investigate whether organizations calling for student boycotts ought to be charged with intentionally placing children and the public in harm’s way.”
