Hubbard was emphatic in his Twitter messages about his disagreement with the way Prater handled the cases and the job that Prater is doing. 

Here was the way the first tweet by Hubbard read: District Attorney David Prater has overstepped his position by allowing police brutality and excessive force to continue against demonstrators exercising the First Amendment in Oklahoma City, OK. HE MUST BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE

The second tweet read: OK County District Attorney David Prater is abusing his power as an elected official to charge demonstrators exercising the First Amendment with terrorism and ONE MILLION dollar bail. This is UNACCEPTABLE.

The third tweet read: Please SHARE these tweets and posts! Call Oklahoma County District Attorney David Prater at (405) 713-1600 to demand he 1. DROP ALL CHARGES AGAINST DEMONSTRATORS, 2. END QUALIFIED IMMUNITY, 3. RE-OPEN ISAIAH LEWIS CASE, 4. END CASH BAIL, & 5. RESIGN.
