WASHINGTON, D.C. – All Lives Matter.

The phrase was scrawled on a flyer and posted to the door of a faculty member’s office at American University’s Washington College of Law and it’s creating a huge controversy, The Washington Post reports.

The situation prompted professors at the law school and the dean to pen letters to students and staff about the March 4 incident that likened the “All Lives Matter” message to white supremacist hate speech, and accused the messenger of harassment and intimidation.

The school’s over-the-top reaction caught the attention of Gail Heriot and Peter Kirsanow – two members of the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights – who chastised school leaders for the “nonsensical” letters.
