It was also said by the police in a press release that they tazed him because he lacked ID and was iranian.

Would you like someone tazing you if you were from California and didn't have a driver's licence?

EDIT: w00yt! 50 posts

I think you've must have misinterpreted something, VultureMan. He is Iranian, and was shocked because he lacked an ID. That's differant than he was shocked because he's Iranian and lacked an ID.

Either way, the main reason he was shocked was not because he lacked an ID, but rather for resisting and obstructing an officier. He was telling other students in the library to resist with him. That's retarded. Whenever you break the law, expect bad things to happen.

Are you telling me that every college tazes people that walk into their computer labs without an ID?

He resisted because they grabbed him. He told them he was leaving, and 2 police officers grabbed him.

btw, what law did he break? I can cite atleast 3 that the police broke.

I could only see the use of tazers if he was armed, imo.

He should be grateful that it was a Taser and not a pistol he was shot with. He was apparently tasered as his parents did not spank him.

A punk with an attitude...glad he was tasered. And why would someone like me never be tasered? For starters I don't do things that I shouldn't and I am always respectful towards Law Enforcement.

Can't wait to see the multi million dollar law suit the ACLU files for him on his behalf.

Resisting a police officer = buzz.

OK, once again you've misinterpreted what you're reading. No where did I say every college shocks people for not having an ID. I don't know where you got that, in fact.

You said it right there in your post, "he resisted . . ." I stated it right there in my post too, "the main reason he was shocked was not because he lacked an ID, but rather for resisting and obstructing an officier." Right there he broke a law. But if you can cite at least three laws the police broke, please feel free to cite away.

Looks like there's no new news in that new article. It does, however, indicate that

One of the officers placed a hand on one of his arms, which the student objected to.
Placed or grabbed? Which one is it? I guess that depends on whether you're the plaintiff or defendant now doesn't it? The police were called to escort this person from the building and he was belligerent.

Stand. The fuck. Up.

Warning after warning after warning after warning. Did he ever say "I can't?" Did he ever give a reason for not standing up besides not wanting to? No. He bitches. He whines. He insults. Warning after warning after warning, why is anyone surprised? Just stand the fuck up. Cooperate. Prove your ridiculous point later. Don't get your friends in on it.

Cops have incredible patience considering the shit they have to put up with. Far more than I have. I'd've dragged him out by his neck if I had to. So fucking annoying. How much didn't we see here, that's what I'm wondering.

More interviews and whatnot.

It appears that he was actually tazered 2 or 3 times after he was handcuffed....now that is a bit much

1. You dont have to fucking taze him for not cooperating
2. You dont want a guy pulling you out when your fucking leaving
3. no need for handcuffs snice he's fucking tazed and i think he understood that if he did something more he's going to be tazed again
4. He did say he had a medical condition and = not standing up?
5. Never should an officer treat a guy without respect, they should've just escorted him out and give him a warning. If you continue struggling (if he did besides saying "let me go" which he was entierly entitled to snice he was going out) then shocked him.

Yeah, they should have switched to the baton and gave him his overdue beat down.

Seeing this story posted on other message boards I am seeing a split into different groups

1) People who see the kid acting like an ass and believe the actions of the Police were justified.

2) People who see the kid acting like an ass and believe the actions of the Police were more than the situation warranted. Something should have happened...just not the Tasering.

3) Idiots who believe that the police had no reason to even talk to the kid much less the confrontation.

I agree that they abused their power. If you don't have an ID in a school library, its simply enough to ask him to leave. If an escort is needed, so be it.

Different reporters are adding or taking away important details, so there's really no way to know for sure yet.

The first report read that the student was asked to leave, and then began packing his bags and starting to leave when the officers came in. They "grabbed" him and he resisted. It is at this point that they taze him for resisting, and then once more for not getting up. In that situation their behavior is over the top, and honestly I think the student is right in his frustration.

However, the other situations depict the student as not leaving, and fighting with the police without having any intention of cooperating. In those situations a taser makes for a funny story. Honestly when an officer tells you to do something, you generaly want to do it. Granted there are acceptinos, but "Please leave the room for the safety of the other students" is not something you ignore.


To be honest, we are talking about campus police here, and if I was already leaving I would resist them grabbing me too. An actual police officer however, I wouldn't fight.

That's exactly it. I've seen several variations of this story in the media. Many depict that the punk was asked to leave a couple of times. I've also read an account that he apologized to the officers afterwards and acknowledged that his behavior was out of line. Spin Spin Spin

2. No, you don't. You also don't want to resist being pulled out when they're threatening to taze you.
3. The way he was fighting, I disagree.
4. Didn't hear anything about a medical condition. I recall "THIS IS YOUR PATRIOT ACT" though.
5. They tried that.

Lol still waiting for the citation of the at least 3 laws the police broke.

And any rate, yes, he already has apologized to the courts, acknowledging what he did was wrong.
