Berkeley protesters complain their successful #ShutItDown campaign means they have to walk home [photos]

Berkeley, Calif. endured more chaos and mayhem last night as police-brutality protesters were successful at bringing local car and rail traffic to a halt:

*TRAVEL ADVISORY*The off ramps from 80 to University Ave are closed at this time due to protesters, use alt ramps to avoid the area.
