UCLA Student Tasered in Library by Police


Fuck tha police
Comin straight from the underground
Young nigga got it bad cuz I'm brown
And not the other color so police think
They have the authority to kill a minority
-N.W.A

Just another reason to be bitter at the man:

So a 19-year old Iranian UCLA student walks into the library but doesn't show his ID to the campus police. What ensues next is unclear...

What we do see is the end result, three or four armed cops tasering the unarmed student as he wails in pain from the electric shock...

Now unless the unarmed Iranian student was physical attacking the police, I think there is zero justification for what the police did.

I realize this video probably doesn't tell the whole picture. Maybe he refused to leave. Maybe he cursed at the officers. Maybe he said he had a fivesome with all the officers mom's last night, and he loved fucking each of them in every orifice possible.

But even if he refused to leave the library, the police could have at the very least handcuffed and arrested him; if he refused that or wouldn't budge from his spot, the three or four officers could have physically carried out the student if need be.

Tasering should have been the last possible choice. It's very painful and has killed 84 people in the U.S. and Canada in the last 7 years. Plus it makes grown men whimper like little girls. (If I was that Iranian kids friends, I'd surely crack a few jokes, but then again I'm an asshole.)

I hope those fucking cops get fired.
