Berkley Man Dies After Violent "BlackLIvesMatter" Protest Delays Ambulance
You knew this was going to happen...
As if these people care....
Quote: Paramedics took nearly a half hour to reach a stricken 62-year-old man, who later died, because they were told to wait for a police escort as a result of a protest over police brutality in downtown Berkeley, city records show.
It would have taken just a couple of minutes for Berkeley firefighters to drive from Station No. 2 on Berkeley Way to Alvin Henry Jones Jr., who had collapsed near an elevator at an apartment complex at 2175 Kittredge St. on the evening of Dec. 7.
But hundreds of people had gathered downtown to protest against police killings of unarmed black men in Missouri and New York.
Berkeley firefighters, following protocol, were instructed not to go directly to the scene. Instead, they were required to stay at the fire station and wait for police to accompany them, according to Fire Department records first released to the Berkeleyside website through a state Public Records Act request. […]
Jones arrived at a hospital 52 minutes after the 911 call. He died two days later from natural causes, according to the Alameda County coroner.
The 911 call was placed a little more than an hour before paramedics were called to help a man who was hit by a hammer while trying to stop protesters looting the RadioShack store at Dwight Way and Shattuck Avenue in downtown Berkeley.
Protesters, angry about the police killings of Michael Brown and Eric Garner — and the use of tear gas by Berkeley police a day earlier — would go on to smash the windows of other businesses, set fires, throw objects at police and climb onto Highway 24 in Oakland.

So the killing in Ferguson is causing more deaths?
I didn't see that coming.

Who knew that a cop killing an unarmed teen would cause an old man to die miles away?

People are still protesting in Berkley? Are they even still protesting in Ferguson? You know, the town where the incident actually happened in....7 months ago.

If they are, that would be pretty amazing.

Oddly enough, the MSM won't cover this shiit.

You mean the guy who acted in self defense and was found not guilty of any charges? LoL Are you really this stupid? I hope for your spawn's sake you're not.

No, they just go ballistic in city council meetings where they're trying to make the "Citizen Review Board" bit an actual thing.
