GUNMAN SHOT AT BERKELEY near the Occupy demonstrations. There are actually two stories here; one about the campus police shooting an armed intruder on the campus, the second about police removing protestors at the behest of the University to uphold a ban on camping on the university campus.

So what does the Chancellor do?

UC Berkeley Chancellor Robert Birgeneau launched an investigation into allegations that campus police used excessive force. He said videos of the protests were disturbing, and he plans to grant amnesty to all students who were arrested and cited for attempting to block police from removing the tents.

Utterly amazing.
