us police used torture against an iranian student? the horror video

Report by PrisonPlanet - A horror video that wouldn’t look out of place in Maoist China or Nazi Germany shows an 23-years old iranian student being repeatedly shot with a stun gun by UCLA police (Los Angeles, USA) for the crime of not showing his ID.

The UCLA student was hit with the Taser shocks multiple times while he was in the Powell Library Computer Lab. Mustafa Tabatabainejad did not show ID to community service officers who were conducting a random check.

The cops bark at Tabatabainejad to get to his feet as simultaneously shock him over and over until he begins crying and screaming for them to stop.

Police are given extensive training on the use of stun guns and in most cases that training involves taking a taser shot and feeling the effects. Over a hundred deaths have occurred in America as a result of taser shocks and Taser’s own manual discourages repeated shocks, yet the history of their use tells us that police simply administer repeated shocks until “compliance is gained.” This is a euphemism for torture.

The video and the eyewitness reports describe multiple taser shots as Tabatabainejad begs and pleads while at one point screaming, “Here’s your Patriot Act, here’s your f—ing abuse of power.”

The officers repeatedly order Tabatabainejad to stand even as they administer further shocks – sending 50,000 volts of current that override the nervous system and temporarily paralyze muscles shooting through his system again and again. He can’t stand and the cops know it, they just get off on the maniacal ego power trip of torture and this is why Tabatabainejad is hit again and again despite his screaming and the protests of the onlookers.
Aren’t they racist? Is it democracy and freedom? Do they have the right to demand Iran and any other country in the world what is right and what is not?
