In the stupid news department comes this story from the San Francisco Chronicle.
A protester fell out of a tree last Sunday and fortunately only broke a wrist and ankle.
The protester thinks its the school's fault for the accident because the school put up a fence to keep the protesters out of the tree.
I'm not making this up folks...
As reported in the article:
Protesters have been illegally occupying a grove of oak trees next to the stadium since December. They seek to block construction of a $117 million athletic training center for Cal football players and other athletes.
"It's a really regrettable accident but, to state the obvious, completely avoidable," Berkeley spokesman Dan Mogulof said. "Things like that wouldn't happen if the people who are illegally occupying university property were abiding by the law."
Protester Hill said that if UC hadn't put fences around the site, then there would have been no need for the traverse line that he'd been trying to reach. [emphasis mine]
How long before we see Mr. Hill suing the school for causing the accident? Bets anyone?
