Dear @SecNielsen: You should read this article. Then you should resign.

This trauma would not have happened to the little girl but for the fact that your agency ripped her away from her parents and placed her in a facility without adequate supervision. https://t.co/X9kyPLjsOi

Justice for #AntwonRose

Uninformed people would ask "If he did nothing wrong, why was he running?"

To that I say, have you seen what Police Officers do to African Americans in the USA? It doesn't matter to them that you're a child or an adult or even innocent. All they see is Black.

RIP #AntwonRose

Why is this video & story not going viral? An East Pittsburgh officer who was just sworn into duty this SAME DAY, shot & killed an unarmed 17 year old boy in the back while running. Why is he on paid leave for MURDER? We need answers & justice. So sad & disgusting. #AntwonRose💔 pic.twitter.com/LE0Xde1gy6
