How have the protestors alleged that the use of excessive force by the State and Local Police Defendants was the result of inadequate or improper training, supervision, instruction and discipline?

Finally, the protestors claim that the use of overwhelming and constitutionally excessive force against them was the result of inadequate and improper training, supervision, instruction and discipline ... under the personal direction ... of the State and Local Police Defendants. However, this allegation is also conclusory. The protestors allege no facts whatsoever about the officers' training or supervision, nor do they specify in what way any such training was deficient.

The protestors' reliance on Connick v. Thompson, U.S. , 131 S.Ct. 1350, 179 L.Ed.2d 417 (2011), is misplaced.
