Was he tazed 5 times in 6 minutes, or once to feel it?

Multiple times. Once to feel it and after that, you can go as long as you can do it or stop. Some guys were real macho men & kept asking for more while others stopped at 3 seconds & vowed to never do it again.

That was incredibly disgusting. Yes, the kid should have followed the rules, yes he should have left when they told him too, but NO ONE deserves that kind of treatment and police brutality. The part that really got me was when the cops told the kid in the white shirt to back up or they would taze him too. So...when you try to stand up for other people, you are threatened with violence?

I'm so ashamed of this, but I'm glad someone caught it on video.

Tasers aren't developed to deliver lasting pain. They incapacitate you for a second to a few seconds. You can get up afterwards, even if you're a teeny tiny student that chose not to follow the rules and create a whole situation where people like me laugh at you since they just saw your video.

I don't understand the patriot act reference - perhaps he's worried that his name is on the terrorist watch list?

Probably, being that he's an Iranian American and figured the cops profiled him, rather than tried to deal with his temper tantrum.

Umm that entire library is filled with Iranian Americans.

If the cops were profiling, they would have tasered the entire population.

That is really shocking and completely messed up. If the rule has been in place for all this time to show ID (as a student he should of already have known that) and at that time of night then what was the big deal in resisting showing his ID? Unless he wasn't a student.....I don't know about the force of tazers....it looks inhumane but then again they were cops , be it campus security, though they had to inforce the rules and this guy was completely (out of bounds on his part) egging them on with his whole BS about the patriot act crap and forcing them to step in and take him out. They Should of gotten it over with by either dragging him away without it blowing up to what it became or forcing him to show the ID (which they tried unsuccessfully)....They should of done something productive on their parts to alliviate the situation and moved on without it becoming what it became.


Also because this was a safety issue... it was smart of UCLA police to check ID's ....i say this because it was on local news last night that Cal State Long Beach campus is having problems with some attacker attacking female students on their campus occuring during late night/early moring hours. Heck if you look suspicious and resist showing proper ID then guess what they were well in their duty to enforce whatever consequence need be ( tazers) to get his sorry butt out of the library. He was just the dumb ass to make it what it became. It was not profiling ....dumb ass tried to be all liberal and envoking some patriot act to further his cause/stance of stupidity!

he was screaming at the top of his lungs in the library.

i would've tazed him just for that.

"here's your Patriot Act, here's your fucking abuse of power!"

that would've been another taze.

so...you just got tazed a couple times, and you're done screaming like a demon. what next? he decides it's a good time to go limp, saying that he would leave, but won't stand up. (officer: "stand up!" tazed guy:"fuck off!")

so sidelines guy apparently decides now is a good time to give a civil rights speech, "this is about abuse of authority..."

i would've tazed him, but i'm an asshole. i've seen small children act the same way in a store. they throw the same tantrum, they scream, they go limp, and everybody wants their parents to just drag them out. you hope mom just takes the kid out of the store, and not spank them in public. Mostafa Tabatabainejad, 23, got spanked.

the kid in the store is a lil' kid though.

Being tazed that many times, that's borderline torture.

They could've just dragged him out. That would have been using less force.

Since when did using a tazer become an only option?
