S.F. subway muzzles cell service during protest

The operators of the Bay Area Rapid Transit subway system temporarily shut down cell service last night in four downtown San Francisco stations to interfere with a protest over a shooting by a BART police officer, a spokesman for the system said today.
Activists had planned to protest the fatal shooting of Charles Blair Hill, who BART police said went after them with a knife before an officer shot him on July 3.
Those officers would have probably killed everybody in London by now if they were there. The excessive abuse of police force keeps on increasing and naturally it's only a matter of time until citizens consider the situation unbearable and protest.
