      XPost: ucb.politics.progressive, alt.politics.libertarian, mn.general       XPost: alt.impeach.clinton       From: psb2003@yahoo.com              Police in Berkeley used tear gas late Saturday night to break up       an evening-long protest over recent incidents in which unarmed       disobedient, law-breaking and arrest resisting African American       men were killed by police.              The episode was the culmination of a noisy, rowdy night of       action through Berkeley. After more than five hours of marching       and confrontations, about 400 protesters squared off against       hundreds of police from Berkeley and other jurisdictions at the       intersection of Telegraph Avenue and Durant Street just south of       the UC Berkeley campus.              After warning the crowd of protesters, officers fired tear gas,       sending people fleeing in panic and pain.              Police arrested five adults and a juvenile on unspecified       allegations, said Officer Jennifer Coats, a Berkeley police       spokeswoman. Coats said protesters vandalized police vehicles       and threw various objects at officers, including bricks, pipes,       rocks and bottles. Some threw back smoke grenades that had been       lobbed by officers, she said. One officer suffered a dislocated       shoulder after being hit by a sandbag, she said.              http://www.sfgate.com/bayarea/article/Protesters-march-again-in-       S-F-and-Berkeley-5940498.php                             --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
