As Twitchy reported, the #ShutItDown movement has spread nationwide, with Michael Brown protesters shutting down traffic from Providence, R.I. and Boston to D.C. to Baltimore to Atlanta to Memphis and Nashville to Oakland to L.A. and beyond. While thousands of law-abiding citizens are being inconvenienced, some are finding their lives endangered.
@TheH2 I liked it when they cut off access to the freakin' BOSTON MEDICAL CENTER. Because Justice.

Yes, protesters did cut off access to the Boston Medical Center.
So a hospital is now "closed" because of the protesters? Hope none of them get hit by a car and need an ambulance. pic.twitter.com/DE5SYeiExZ

Has anyone considered that these sorts of tweets make the protesters look bad?
@JenBrettAJC Wow, what a stupid tweet. Any way you can vilify protestors, right?
