  • i have a easier solution let the kid tase the cops and c how fast thhey get annoyd of STANd UP! *taze* STAND UP!!! *taze* tht shit dont work brah

  • people of this world : we have a hard time in front of us! lets stay together.

  • Good for this kid. Even if he resisted and over reacted the police need to be sued all the way to death so we can get rid of the real terrorists in this country and not live in fear of being kidnapped, tortured and killed by pigs anymore.

  • This Is Crazy !! How in the HELL can he stand up when he is being tazzed,? It contracts your muscles and physically impossible to do anything SHIT

  • At first the guy who said "Don't touch me" reminds me of Stephen from wafflepwn

  • he sounds gay as fuck "DONT TOUCH ME!!"

  • Next time give the camera to someone who's not a pussy!

  • 1. For those of you saying he couldn't stand up after being tased so many times, Tabatabainejad himself is heard yelling "I'll leave!"

    2. Not only that, Tabatabainejad asked for this to happen. "Here's your PATRIOT Act!" Really? He wanted to continuously get stunned in order to make a case of police brutality. Someone please take his 200k away.

    3. When an officer asks you to do something, do it. If they go to hold your arm and escort you out, you are resisting by pulling your hand away.

  • he got $200,000 out of it (: and cmon where all the kids studyin law at?

  • If they reported this the security guards would get in trouble he warned what will happen if he didn't stand up so I'm not against this video just how stupid that gut is

  • @minime2088 you could get up after getting taserd so many times???

  • Comment removed

  • A lot of people (including c.a.i.r - community for American izlamic relations), & local imams, thought that this asshole was a muslim, - probably because he was behaving like one...

    Why should he be exempt from producing his iD...?

    - he probably planned this all along, - he knew exactly what to say in front of witnesses ;- " I am bipolar ", & " I will leave "(he had no intention of it),

    nobody screams like that from a taser, - rehearsed.

    - (for the courtcase, later) a nice little earner

  • @MADmohAMiONaJIHAD do you personally know what his being tased feels like? if you don't, maybe you should try it and then comment on how you scream and walk after, bigot.

  • u c lots assholes

  • The chest

  • The tazer was intended to be used in situations where the subject refuses to cooperate. He was refusing to cooperate. I've been tazed and its not as bad as this individual makes it look. He's putting on a show. I got up and shook it off in about 15 seconds. If it was truly as bad as he's making it look he would be doing everything in his power to avoid another blast. Adrenaline kicks in. Cops were in the right. Sorry if u disagree...besides its better than the days of having a shotgun slug to

  • the asshole was a foreign national muslim, who was just trying it on,

    he claimed that he was being racially profiled, & REFUSED to show them his iD.

    he had it on him all the time..

  • @MADmohAMiONaJIHAD FYI . hey you the old fart pig. 1, he is not a foreing´natinal he is an iranian -american. 2. he is not a muslim he is on bahai-faith, ( doesnt have anything with islam) 3.according to the court the ucla police dep. in 2009 had to pay him 220,000 dollers because of "blind and not reasonable" use of extera force. Asshole is an stupid ignorant old fart like u , who open his shitty mouth without knwoing what speaking about.

  • The cop who did this had been to court three times prior to this all for using excessive force on students and shooting dead a homeless man sheltering under a school building from the rain. A thug given the power to do what he wants who was sacked from long beach police department for poor writing skills and an inability to control his temper. This guy is not suitable to protect people, let alone try and control them.

  • sometimes polices or law enforcements uses their power too cruelly... im not even sure if a taser was truly made for a situation like this now. it seems to me as if they sort of abused the proper use of a taser. but, im know nothing here, so i obviously can't say anything more or less. i just feel sorry...

  • someone kill these pigs NOW

  • ......are you people srs? they are both at fault the kid should have just did what they said and they should not have used a tazer police carrie people out of places all the time they could have picked him up but if he had been following the law aka officers then he would have goten off without a taze end of story

  • The problem the police, and thus the University, had is that they did not i.d. the other students Their entire premise was that it was routine to i.d. students after twelve. It just does'nt look right when you only i.d. the minority. They also threatened other students who were enquiring about the incident. Thomas Swift's Electronic Rifle (Taser) was originally was supposed to substitute for lethal force with a fire arm. That was how it was sold to the public.

  • who called the police? bet the same idiots who are defending the hooligan

  • fkn hooligan, i bet that was not the last time he got in troubles

  • @airman310 That "hooligan" sued and won because the police were WRONG.Better study extra hard and study right because that is not how to arrest some one for no I.D. Such flak for no school identification to enter the school library. Police are thugs who hurt the very people they are supposed to protect. You would have to be a sadist to want to be a cop.

  • What kind of country have we become where for even a minor disagreement the police can be called and they turn such a mundane and minor thing into such a spectacle? Not only that the police have such power that they can lie and the consequences are very detrimental to the accused. All this in the above video was because he had no I.D. .

  • Fuck cops who get into just for control and fuck people who feel the need to blow things out of proportion. There's two sides of incompetence here: on the one The kid could have gotten up and left with them and no hysterics. Then on the other side those cops could have handled the situation MUCH better, and how hard is it with two grown men to just each grab an arm and drag his ass outside?

  • @papapowderyahoocom might be a lot harder than you think. And why should an officer go through the physical trouble, potentially giving the suspect access to his/her gun? The best thing to do is listen, even if the cop is wrong, take it up in court later. Trying to argue and fight with the police, well, watch most of the videos on youtube, the cops will usually win the battle.

  • @usp401 Exactly. That piece of shit was told to leave and was clearly told what would happen. Being a little bitch, he decided not to and got what he was told would happen. If he gets up and leaves for violating rules, none of this happens. He wnated attention, he got it.

  • wait. how could he get up when his tased so many times?

  • what i would do is taser the cop and keep asking him to stand up and if he doesn't i'd taser him again and keep asking to stand up if he could then that student is guilty

  • i love it how all these conservatives are whining about how 'disobedient' he is. he isn't a fucking dog, and the cops are nothing more than pigs. pigs can't order around humans, especially when they use their filthy swine tactics. if they were such law-abiding voices of reason they would've picked the cunt up and carried him. i'm gonna laugh when your redneck uncle or grandaddy is on the porch minding his own and some cops harass him, beat him, spit in his face, for being 'disobedient'

  • this made me cry. that is awful. and they wonder y people hate cops.

  • haha i love how all the college students are just standing around saying i want your badge info. why don't you guys hit the police from behind? you clearly outnumber them. But wow i can't believe the police would abuse their power like that. "stand up or you'll be tased again" a taser causes all your muscles to contract and you have no control over them. let me tase you a couple times, officer, and lets see if you can stand up after.

  • AND NOONE IS HELPING HIM!!!

    THIS is the SCANDAL!!

    I AM SHOCKED AND DISCUSTED OF THE APATHY OF THE PEOPLE WHEN A HUMAN BEING IS GETTING TORTURED!!!!

  • I WOULD START A FUCKING RIOT. FUCK THAT SHIT. I'M NOT SCARED OF THEM IF THEY TAZE SOMEONE OVER AND OVER TO WHERE THEY CANT MOVE AND YELL AT THEM SHIT LIKE THAT I WOULD RIOT

  • This entire incident is caused by the disobedient student who got tased

    I went to UCLA, and was a freshman when this happened. Everyone knows it is standard policy to check for student ID at night. Even if he didn't know, he did after they told him.

    Obviously this kid thought he was special, that he didn't need to show his ID like everyone else.

    The cop might have tasered him too many times, but this would not have happened if he followed the rules, and didn't act like a special snowflake

  • Screaming at the top of your lungs in a cops face for following procedure resulted in getting tased. Followed by vulgur language and resisting arrest. Damn police brutality.

    @ the idiot that is commenting on them demanding him to stand up after tazing him. Your muscle control is regained the instant they remove the charge. It's an electrical charge, not a paralytic. Moron.

  • I know I might get alot of hate for this but most cops, Like these, are fucking idoits.

  • @retailrockstar

    yeah man, just seeing this scares the shit out of me. People with that power who seem to enjoy just hurting people with thier weapons for self-defence.. urgh

  • fuck da police----now i will never give theeze bastards any annual donation

    da actual police officer who tasered da poor fellow----may he die da death of a dog, may his daughter get raped and may his son die of cancer.

  • @retailrockstar

    No excuse to just stand there like sheep too afraid to step in..

  • @skdnow

    I've been tazed before, and you still have function of your legs. dude being tazed was a complete idiot, he was being over dramatic cause there was a crowed of people. obviously he was upset from the start, and that is his right. but the moment you become verbally, or physically combative with a law enforcement official they are well in their rights to do what is necessary to get the job done. Even if the suspect was cuffed he was still being combative. even if they asked 100x's 2 stand

  • why the fuck are they just standing there?! fucking pussies

  • "officers, we want your information" - In 1970 we would have bum rushed those fucking pigs in short order! The controlling powers are getting you used to this sort of thing, bit by bit. SHEEPLE BEWARE!

  • Gee, so what did they do before they had tasers? All these people in the library are distracted from their studies because these Cops won't just lift him up and take him out of the library. After the 3rd taser,  you can hear all the students appalled at the fact a fellow student is being 'tortured' to an extent for not standing-up! UCLA Sucks!

  • Randy Marsh: "what? I thought this was America. I'm sorry I thought this was America"

  • This is so awesome...omg

  • No-one hear knows the full story, dont scream at a cop, or you can get tazed. He wasnt beaten with a baton or shot. I do agree the second time was not called for but the initial tasing i agree with

  • Tasering is for restraining and taking down violent criminals. Not as a threat. "Stand up or you'll get tased again" 1:30

  • "You let one ant stand up to us - then they all might stand up. Those puny little ants outnumber us a 100 to one. And if they ever figure that out, there goes our way of life".

  • Ahahahaha. those wacky liberal arts majors

  • thats what you get for screaming in the library lol

  • was it alexandra wallace?

  • why cops are such corrupt asses like this disgusts me.

  • and they paid him 220thousand dollars wtf he needs to be tazed again just for acting like such a bitch but then again this is how people are these days act like bitches then sue afterwards

  • THIS... IS... a library. Now stfu.

  • Comment removed

  • Tabatabainejad filed a federal lawsuit alleging that the officers used excessive force and that they violated the Americans with Disabilities Act. The case was settled on May 15, 2009, with UCLA agreeing to pay $220,000 to Tabatabainejad.

    ~Wikipedia

    The kid won in the end

  • camera up over the door

    stupid cops

  • I bet this kid acted exactly like this before college. He was just upset because someone finally didn't give in to his "I'm entitled" attitude.

  • @Exarkunrocks Your the fucking idiot, yeah it hurts, TEMPORARILY! It incompacitates you only while it's ON, i've been shocked before by a friend, its easy to get up after you've been shocked. Get your facts straight faggot.

  • The guy in white at the end should have stood up to that shit... Taze me motherfucker and I can call that police brutality! On what grounds?

    1) Student here in UCLA, I have every right to stand where ever the fuck I like on campus

    2) "Stand over there or you get tazed too"? Sounds like a threat from the law to me

    3) UDH Right #10 - "Right to Fair Public Hearing" would have been violated in this situation

    4) UDHR Right #5 - "Freedom from Torture, Degrading Treatment" was already violated

  • I wonder how many times they told him "stand up!" and he didn't obey. That is why I can't feel sorry for him. He really asked for it.

  • @raadraad Sorry to delude u... But in the UK the police are far better & civilized & law-abiding than the exalted "rambo" pricks you folks call cops.

  • @llxzxll No reason to Tase him. That's FASCISM.

  • @TheYellowJack possible excessive force used? maybe (although the idiot was being excessively hostile anyways). fascism? uhh, no.

  • @llxzxll Believe me. I've known the US for the past 35 years, and being Italian I know how the "Real McCoy" Fascism started... And it began this way. Fascism? Uhh, yeah.

    I always have had great respect for George Bush Sr. - But thank God George "Dubya" is out of the way as President, because he is the guy who brought you Americans on that path...

  • @llxzxll Believe me, as an Italian, I know how "the real McCoy" Fascism started... And it DID start this way... And law-abiding folks said, "well, maybe it's just excessive use of force" & stuff like that.

    I have great respect for Bush Sr. as President, but you Americans should thank God Bush "Dubya" is out of the way, because he directed the US on that perilous path...

  • @sovrenti Actually, my thought would be - don't be such a pussy. Don't cellphonevideojournalize, to paraphrase what you wrote. INTERVENE, for Christ's sake! There were so many of you that you could've LYNCHED the cops, let alone just stop them!!!

  • @vtchuck And Ben Franklin said that any People willing to sacrifice some liberty in exchange for some security deserve neither liberty nor security.

    And these cops are Fascists - as an Italian, I should know. We invented Fascism.

  • Bad acts from the police but it IS his fault for not complying, maybe tased once would have been more acceptable but the dumb ass just had to stand up and walk out...

  • @xMasSaCreDx do you know how a taser works? do you know just how fuckin painful it is to get tased? do you know what happens? the point of a taser is to incapacitate the person, make them UNABLE TO MOVE. aka stand up. if the guy can't stand up, because you tased him, don't tase him AGAIN AND AGAIN. because that just makes it worse.

  • When a stun gun is used in drive stun mode it inflicts pain without incapacitating.He was capable of standing and walking.I feel as though if this guy had been cooperative from the beginning and just shown his student ID,he could have avoided a lot of pain.And,while I don't agree with it,some police departments and campuses will continue to tase you if you continue to not comply with a direct order.Easier to just stand up and shut up.

  • @skdnow you are such a little bitch. are you a pig, oops i mean police officer as well? you must be with your republican mindset. you are the fucking reason and people like you this country gets a bad rep. fuck you, please leave our country and goto israel where pieces of shit like you belong you fucking illiterate son of a bitch. you must be white because the white mans soul has been blackened from inside after all the injustice they have inflected on humanity. so go fuck your mom sir!

  • @rememberlike123 whoa, now. 1. what is wrong with being a Republican? political opinion has nothing to do with this. it is cruel and shouldn't have happened. regardless of political affiliation, people can agree that this is wrong. 2. what the heck is wrong with Israel? ignorant morons like you are the reason Americans get a bad rap. 3. if he was illiterate, he would not be able to type a comment on this video. bad insult. 4. why are you dragging race into this as well? go read a book, idiot.

  • What the fuck? HEY YOU FUCKING COPS, HE'S NOT GONNA BE ABLE TO FUCKING STAND UP HE GOT FUCKING TASERED. Fucking moron cops like these make me wanna kill them!

  • Wormrot sampled this video. They are gods.

  • Comment removed

  • the next time you see something like this, gather a group of bystanders and STOP the oppressors of freedom

  • fucking corrupt pieces of shit. i hope you all watch your children die a slow painfull death.. and i hope you get sent to prison after that and get fucked in ur ass every night by bubba.. fuck the police!

  • You can hear the cop saying to one of the protesters at the end "Back inside, or you're gonna get tasered too." Absolute, disgusting abuse of power.

  • woooooww i feel bad for all of u dumb fucks who think that the so called "cops" did the right thing. No wonder why the rest of the planet is laughing at you, lookin at cops in the US is just like watching a bad comedy act, it's funny/sad how they let mentally challenged people up hold the law. And as for the students..what a bunch of bitchis do something insted of standing there trying to reason with these retards, hit somebody or go help the poor guy stand up.....help ur fellow man.

  • I'm glad this Lil bitch got tased

  • "we want your badge number" what a FAGGOT

  • 6:37 "You're gonna get tased too"

    total abuse of power, in my opinion

  • @ sbisk Ever hear of neutralized muscle control, you dumb fuck?

  • seriously folks....how hard is it to "stand up"? Guy was acting like a jackass. He knew the consequences (as he was tols MANY MANY times). He deserved it.

  • what the FUCK, majority likes?

  • i would beat the shit out of those cops, that's exactly what it is. fucking corruption

  • aAfter tasered, you can stand up soon or immediately.

    I've experienced taser in a weapon show, so i knew that.

  • Jesus fucking christ, this is making me cry. I could not watch this in person, I don't care what he did. I can't believe they tazed him again, too! I hope someone was forced to take responsibility for this.

  • This wouldn't happen in any developed country other than America.

  • this is so sad what did he do anyways i feel so bad for him :(

  • Instead of tazing him like 2093483 times. Just drag him.

  • if i were studying, id be like wtf man!?! shut the hell up!

  • Are they gonna taser Alexander Wallace?

  • Wow .. Wacked and abusive yo~

  • He was talking on his phone in the Library like what did he expect?

  • Omg... i was about the reach an epiphany then this shit happens...

  • He didn't deserve to be tasered, but he didn't deserve $220,000, either. The police should've been fired and charged.

  • I notice that a lot of these comments have to do with not doing anything wrong in the first place... Doing nothing wrong doesn't really work when it's the cop's word against the student's. Even if he had done no wrong, they could still find some excuse to use brute force. Cops can get away with a lot and they often take advantage of that. Law enforcement officers violate people's rights every day and many of those citizens don't even know it.

  • police brutality

  • I would get a chair and blow his brains off

    

  • So I'm an Asian studying in the library about to have an epiphany...when off in some corner, some random white guy, who I don't even know, starts screaming about getting tasered.

  • I'm shocked..

    What on the earth did he do to be tasered ?!

  • Man Americans are hysterical...

  • Comment removed

  • Torture a younger, weaker, college student whose already going through hell in his classes. I bet you officers have a huge dick. Keep up the good work, righto

  • THAT is screwed up.

  • HOW THE FUCK ARE YOU SUPPOSED TO STAND UP AFTER YOU GET TASED? WTF IS THAT SHIT DUDE.

  • what pussies, there were easily 30 people sitting there and watching it, i would have fucked those cops up. oh sure, theyll sit there and protest, but lets not do anything drastic now, guys. pfft.

  • @thychaos then you be in jail. you cant touch a cop if you do they have the right put in jail. that one of the laws in american the person was refuse to leave only change his mind when got tase.

  • @jman19mwi you think if 30 people attack a cop, that any of them will get arrested? ive seen videos where the public doesnt approve of something the cops are doing and a crowd beats the shit out of them and they get away with it.

  • fucking pigs

  • I guess this guy did not have friends. I remember when I was in H.S in NYC 3 cops came and threw a guy on the ground for no reason. What happen? About 30 people jump the cops and they got they ass kick.

  • Fucking cops, I think the civilians are doing better keeping this place clean.

  • "I want your badge number." Don't these kids know they're in a library! Jesus.

  • just stand up.....

  • So in the end, what happened? Did they get suspended? Lose their badges? Because those things are NOT meant to be used repeatedly OVER AND OVER again on somebody. Even if they did initially have good cause, they blew it. If you can't move somebody, you call more people and pick him up, not tase the person over and over. Those kids were right to be upset.

  • I wonder what did he do wrong...

  • F*******K all 'em bad cops. They think they are the sh*t of this society....F***kcing morons

  • @hpham424 why the fuck are you censoring yourself.

  • I kinda laughed when I heard "Officer can I have your badge number? I like your badge number" >.>

  • They asked him to stand up over and over again, the police can assume that he has some kinds of weapon.

    Stupid guy, when an officer tell you to stand up, you stand up, when they warn you 2-3 times and you still not stand up, then you are deserve to be tazed

  • @Anonsuthi93 So they taze him, neutralize his muscle control, and then ask him to stand up? You should be a cop too, you'd fit right in with that ignorant corrupt bunch of thugs.

  • @Anonsuthi93 youre a fucking moron. if someone is refusing to get up, you just carry them out. obviously he either couldnt get up or he made up his mind that he wasnt going to and tazing him wasnt going to change that, so it was unnecessary, especially since i heard him yell out "i have a medical condition." tazers are to incapacitate potentially dangerous suspects. he was fucking hadcuffed. if you really think that was justified, i hope you have fun with your "freedom" in the future.

  • I can't believe that UCLA gave this individual a single penny in some settlement. The individual was told to stand up over and over again. ..the officiers trying to simply remove him from the building and do their jobs. He was playing "drama queen" and the victim of "police abuse" when, in fact, was causing the whole incident to escalate for no good reason.

  • @JimCampbell777 So they taze him, neutralize his muscle control, and then ask him to stand up? You should be a cop too, you'd fit right in with that ignorant corrupt bunch of thugs.

  • @skdnow yeah fuck the cops.. until you cry like a bitch and need them to save your punkass

  • @fireking9934 Actually you make a good point. I was too broad in my statement. I don't believe that all cops are ignorant, corrupt, thugs. In fact, most are honorable, hard working, and risking their lives. Hell, even the bad ones are. But I will call out the bullshit that people in any profession do, including cops. And what these cops did was thuggery in my opinion.

  • @skdnow im not saying all cops are saints, but there is some dirty cops.. but when people say we dont need cops... that is where i go off

    do people really think "no cops" would work

  • @skdnow Shut up. A normal taser shock effects muscle control for 3-5 seconds in a human. They gave him a 1:15 seconds before the second taser to stand up and he sat their kicking and scream telling the cops to "fuck off". Even if the effects lasted abnormally longer on him he wouldn't been able to scream and yell for a 1:15 straight if he had no muscle control for all the time. He should have stood up and quit causing such a huge fucking scene. So, shove your liberal bullshit up your ass dude.

  • @DJ3583 I hope you get tased in the dick so that your level of ignorance is removed from the gene pool you fucking retard. Tasers are for officer protection against a combative suspect who poses a non-lethal threat, not for compliance of orders!!! Damn your dumb....

  • @DJ3583 That man won a 220,000 settlement.;)

  • @DJ3583

    Once you've been tazered once for no reason, you'll find your willingness to follow the man who just hit you with it like a sheep diminishes almost immediately.

    What the hell do you expect, I'd keep my ass on the ground.

  • @DJ3583 rofl ur very gay

  • @skdnow I like how you are such an expert on the taser, because you obviously know that it has no lasting effect and a person who is shot or tased can move freely as soon as the electrical pulse stops. You fit right in with all of the other mindless sheep in this country.

  • @JimCampbell777 oh look, another fucktard. read my comment to Anonsuthi93 and find out why you are fucking stupid.

  • What a moron this guy is. I've been Tasered before and Yes, you most definitely can stand up after being Tased. You should also be aware that all of these cops have been tased before as well and know personally how it feels and what you can and cannot do. The rest of the students have no idea, and to somebody who doesn't know, this can seem cruel. He was simply trying to cause a scene so that he could try and sue for police brutality. He's lucky they didn't use their batons.

  • @Talendiem No, he was upset because he is Iranian and they were asking for his ID to prove he was a student. He felt that he was being racially profiled. He wasn't trying to get tased because he wanted to sue someone. The officer that tased him had been fired by the real police department years before, has had multiple cases of excessive force against him (including shooting a homeless man), and obviously did NOT need to tase the guy. Tasing is if he needs to be subdued. He wasn't fighting.

  • Comment removed

  • why would i go to ucla?

  • average california, fingers are pointed and denial of personal responsibility is everywhere

  • lol you cant stand up after being tasered cause your muscles will be numb...cause i have been tasered twice by my friend in school

  • I don't get it why is he being tasered? .... all of the comments dosen't say why.... can anybody say why?

  • fuck.... the cops are still telling the student to stand up after getting tazed multiple times? is that possible? sounds like it hurts.... thats some messed up shit right here.

  • Must have been saying "ching chong ling long ting tong" too loud on his cell phone.

  • why did they taze him?

  • Dumb guy should have stood up...lol. Get tazed.

  • Am I the only martyr!!!!!!?

  • THANK YOU FOR POSTING>>>>>Ill BE on THE PHONE TOMORROW TO UCLA ASKING FORTHE FIRING OF THE OFFICER

  • lol they tazing him

  • this makes me fucking furious. All the students should have rushed the cops.  EZ win.

  • thats just fweakin scary. :S ):

  • This feels like an blatant abuse of power... hope the poor guy is ok

  • did you hear that asian guy on the phone "Ohhhhhhhhhhh CHING CHONG LING LONG TING TONG?, ohhhhh" I LMAO hahah

  • I'm disappointed. So many people protesting what the police are doing yet they do nothing to try and stop them.

  • somebody pleaaaaase tell me what happened? what did the guy do? why are the cops doing that to him? whats going on?:(

  • Alexandra wallace has a surprisingly manly voice in this video.

  • FUCK THE POLICE

  • that guy's squealing like a pig at slaughter. Anyway ... if police says do something you do it ... if they're wrong that gets sorted out later. If he's not obeying you taser his fu*king a*s

  • what do they be smoking there? where all my Asians at?

  • what did he do??? and why were the students fending the tasered guy???

  • the police always abuse their power

  • WOW, we don't talk cell phone in the library. We are just yelling. SHhhhh, we have final next week.

  • according to the wikipedia article, UCLA's policy at this time allowed police to use the taser against "passive resisters". So technically it was the policy's fault... although I must say that officer must've been twisted to take advantage of that policy.
