    UCLA Taser incident

    Mostafa Tabatabainejad deserves the Darwin award for the dumbest mofo alive. They should staple a US flag to his butt and mail him back to Iran.

    He may have been a fool to resist in the first place, but that doesn't justify the officers actions. He initially refused, but one of the many articles said he had his stuff packed up and was leaving when an officer grabbed him by the arm. At that point, he went limp and was tasered for the first time. There was no reason to taser him. They could have carried him out more easily and with less disruption. The repeated tasering for not standing up was unnecessary as well. I don't know how fast someone can get up after they've been tasered several times. He never did stand up either. They ended up carrying by the arms anyway, which was what they should have done to begin with.

    Maybe Mouse can give his (legal) opinion too...
    Wasn't grabbing his arm unreasonable physical force if he was already leaving? False imprisonment no? Also, he was screaming that he would leave... I guess it wouldn't be FI, if they were arresting him, but it didn't seem like that was the reason why he was grabbed. It was to kick him out.

      IF he was leaving, and they apprehended him, then that could qualify as false imprisonment. However, if he was apprehended and they tazered him still (I mean, how hard is it to escort a handcuffed man out of the library with a few officers?) that could qualify as battery and assault. I don't know too much about the whole civil rights bullshyt card everyone screams these days due to identity politics, but in terms of the other elements of the law, he has a good case. Whether the jury buys it is another story.

        I've read tasing is good for the heart, like one glass of wine a day.
        In fact isn't there a saying "Tasing a day keeps the doctors away"?

        But seriously, LA cops are famous for being crazed-up brutes. I don't know maybe it comes with the job, but doesn't chage the fact that they're all rabid.

          For the record, I didn't make this thread! That loser doesn't deserve ANY more attention than he has gotten.

            By the way, I always had my I.D. whenever on campus, even in the late night hours at Powell, but I never got asked because of my Middle Eastern looks because they were probably afraid I might bomb them.

                I have NEVER been in a situation to be tased by cops and I never will be ... especially through my 10 years at UCLA. Anyone who wants to claim cops are going around places like UCLA just looking to use their tasers on students is just ignorant. That was neither the place nor the time to make a political "statement" either so don't try to tell me he had some "political" motives to get into a scuffle with fricking library security.

                Yah if he had been out there protesting some foreign policy (in the form of civil disobedience for example), I would certainly understand. But refusing to leave a library when asked to and failing to provide adequate ID? Paaaaaalease! I think they should expel him from UCLA all together (if he in fact is a student).

                Ironically enough, if he had pulled that shit back in Iran, "tasering" would have probably been the best scenario that might have happened to him (assuming he lived to talk/bitch about it).

                  Siggie, I don't know if you have seen the video or not but he was asked many many many times to leave and he was just being a complete prick about it. Just a typical spoiled persian with the sense of entitlement and the arrogance and audacity to complain about the "system" when he is there taking full advantage of it (UCLA is full of them). I'd like to see him go back to Iran and then refuse the explicit instructions of the police.
