14-year-old facing a year in jail for wearing an NRA t-shirt.

Suspended and arrested after refusing to change his NRA shirt. Today, 14-year-old Jared Marcum appeared before a judge and was officially charged with obstructing an officer.

A $500 fine and up to a year in jail, that's the penalty that Jared could face, now that a judge has allowed the prosecution to move forward with it's obstructing an officer charge against him.

#3  as instapundit says, bring a video camera whenever possible. I suspect this will be tossed out of court at some point and the officer given a holiday as if it were a penalty. Perhaps mandatory training that gets ignored and the money dedicated to it shifted somewhere else. Still, if the kid had it recorded all that would have happened already.

#2  I've seen pictures of Jared: the Rodney rules are different.

#1  Sounds like a case to invoke the law used against the LAPD for violating Rodney's civil rights.
