A police sergeants union in the city took a swing Saturday night at a tweet from a police oversight agency about filing complaints against NYPD officers.

The Civilian Complaint Review Board (CCRB) had tweeted Friday evening a link to one of its pages on the nyc.gov website that allows people to file complaints against an NYPD officer if they feel their rights have been violated.

#MayTheFourth Amendment protect you from unreasonable searches and seizures. And if you feel your rights have been violated by an NYPD officer, file a complaint here: https://t.co/85crBmm5PG pic.twitter.com/dD7vumSaux

Saturday night, the Sergeants Benevolent Association union quote-tweeted the CCRB tweet and responded with some strong language:

"You are all a disgrace. You sit on your a-- and target the NYPD," it read in part. "You have no clue what a NYPD officer does yet target us and disparage our integrity. One day you will dial 911 when evil is at your door and thank god for the NYPD."

You are all a disgrace. You sit on your ass and target the NYPD all while growing up on the nipple of what’s easy. You have no clue what a NYPD officer does yet target us and disparage our integrity. One day you will dial 911 when evil is at your door and thank god for the NYPD. https://t.co/8I00FD7hny
