UCLA student tasered on campus

by )
The students at UCLA got a good lesson the realities of Nazi USA with the horrifying use of taser guns against a student of Iranian descent who was leaving the UCLA library on 11/14/06 after being asked to leave when he could not produce a UCLA identification. He is only alive because he is so young. They tasered him several times. The surrounding students caught it on their video phones and it is now national news. Please put this on the front page.

update - CAIR: ISLAMIC LEADERS CALL FOR PROBE OF STUDENT TASERING

Southern California Islamic leaders are calling for an independent investigation into Tuesday night's incident at the UCLA library where campus police apparently stunned a student with a "Taser" gun.

The Council on American-Islamic Relations urged "state and national authorities, including the FBI" to investigate the incident involving the 23-year-old Mostafa Tabatabainejad.

A camera phone captured Tabatabainejad being stunned repeatedly after he allegedly refused repeated requests to show his student I-D and would not leave a campus library.

Campus officials are investigating the incident.

But the American-Islamic relations group says an outside probe's needed to make sure the case's "civil rights aspects" are taken seriously.
