    Dear @NYCMayor & @NYPDONeill, We need you to please show us the policy changes you are going to make to ensure this never happens again. In addition to the trauma caused here, my guess is that this will cost the city millions of dollars in damages. It never should've happened.https://twitter.com/shaunking/status/1072591855433510917 …

        It's a shame when a woman seeking child care assistance (who was waiting for four hours) has the police called on them because they couldn't stand up any longer. Then the police show up brutalize the woman and her child. Add sitting while Black to the list.pic.twitter.com/aloRwAy9Ji

        The offending officers should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. Child endangerment, assault, illegal imprisonment, etc. Heads should roll at the top of NYPD, those cops acted that way because they thought that behavior is acceptable. Changes needed.

        Common sense called for those officers to inquire of the staff could they get a spare chair from the back to get the mom and her baby off the floor COMMON SENSE

        Did they drop the order of protection to keep her away from her son? What about the CPS investigation the DA requested?

        From here in the UK, police in the USA do seem to be more paramilitary than police. 'Protect and Serve' who?

        So happy for her. You should never took place in the first place. New York State is a police state that specialize in brutality against black people.
