          @BBCBreaking @BBCWorld Not to mention the women who have been sexually assaulted, raped, or coerced by officers. Abuse of power. Period.

          @BBCBreaking @BBCWorld Making this about racism is a disservice to the many people who are abused by the police who are not black.

          @BBCBreaking @BBCWorld Police are NOT always right. They do some messed up stuff and need more oversight.

          @BBCBreaking Disproportionate shooting by US police, should be boycott the US now? Or maybe call for the disarming of their police?
