(VIDEO INCIDENT) Americans To Be Tortured For Refusing To Show ID? Student shocked, tortured for defending constitutional rights Paul Joseph Watson Prison Planet Thursday, November 16, 2006 A horror video that wouldn't look out of place in Maoist China or Nazi Germany shows a student being repeatedly shot with a stun gun by UCLA police for the crime of not showing his ID. As similar cases begin to pile up how long will it be before Americans are routinely tortured for noncompliance and refusing to have their 4th amendment violated? "A cell phone captured video of a 23-year-old student being administered multiple Taser shocks by UCLA police on Tuesday. The UCLA student was hit with the Taser shocks multiple times while he was in the Powell Library Computer Lab. According to the paper, (Mostafa) Tabatabainejad did not show ID to community service officers who were conducting a random check," reports NBC. Watch the video above and witness as 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. Depending on each individual's physiology, it takes at least a minute to be able to even stand after a single Taser shot. 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. (VIDEO EXAMPLE OF ANOTHER DIFFEREN'T INCIDENT) Similar cases abound in the so-called land of the free, including the video above in which a housewife, Abbey Newman, is assaulted and arrested for simply refusing to tell the gestapo her name at an unconstitutional checkpoint. Another case in which an Alex Jones listener, Ferrell Montgomery, was tasered and had a dog set on him again underscores the brutal and sadistic nature of the police. Like Tabatabainejad, Montgomery was repeatedly told to put his hands behind his head and stand up while he was electric shocked and a dog savaged him for not complying. In November 2005, Deborah Davis was reading a book on a Denver bus when a guard of a nearby federal building got on board and demanded everyone show their ID. Davis refused, leading the guard to "call on federal cops, who then dragged Davis off a public bus, handcuffed her, shoved her into the back seat of a police car and drove off to a police station within the Federal Center." How long before Americans are tortured with taser weapons on the streets for refusing to show identification on a routine basis? How long before we are forced to wear shock collars like some bizarre science fiction movie, where our masters can discipline us on a whim for not obeying orders? It may be a lot sooner than we think. Every indication suggests that there are moves afoot to implement these measures on every major street corner and transport system. A year ago we were told that Federal air marshals were to expand their work beyond airplanes, launching counter-terror surveillance at train stations and other mass transit facilities. So called "Visible Intermodal Protection and Response" teams — or VIPER teams, may soon be permanently deployed to check ID's under the banner of counter-terrorism. We need to set a precedent now whereby police who use taser stun guns and any other kind of unreasonable force as implements of torture, simply if an individual refuses to have their 4th amendment right illegally violated, are instantly fired, sued and can never work in any sector of government, policing or security again. Watch this space for further updates on the Tabatabainejad case. ACTION: Call UCLA and demand an investigation into this incident. BE POLITE. 310-825-4321 |

old news that.I have a friend that was arrested for having subversive
materials in his car.... 500 copies of the constitution. The constitution has been dead for 80 years class. Judges only enforce it when it suits thier purposes. Example- the 20,000 gun laws. The constitution plainly says the right of the people to keep and bear arms SHALL NOT be infringed. If constitutional law were trump, then one could go into a court room, lay down the second amendment and walk out, then sue the arresting officer. Its a 10,000 Min. fine to deny someone thier "rights". Constitutional arguments have no force of affect in courtrooms. If you dont believe me try it once. The Judge will tell you that was a beautiful constitutional arguement... guilty pay the lady. Did I forget to mention to yall that Im a substitute district court Judge?? |

I had a case once where a guy was a passenger in a parked car, and the
cops wanted him to identify himself. He refused and was taken to jail. He never did tell them his name and would not allow them to fingerprint him and he wouldent sign anything. He sat in jail for 90 days before he came in front of me. I cut him loose. he had commited no crime as far as i could see. Did u know that you dont have to get fingerprinted or sign anything when being booked? Its always a question.... will u sign this? Can we take your fingerprints? Would you step out of the car? Asking a question implys that you have a choice does it not? Also if you refuse to sign the booking documents you are not under any contract to pay for your visit. You are only required to sign or give fingerprints if odered by a JUDGE. bET U DIDNT KNOW THAT ONE. |

hello?
|
|
|
|
ok i cant even watch this fuckin video it sends such rage through me
that i cant do it. it makes me so mad!!!!!!!! wat bullshit!!!! |
|
|
|
i deal with corrupt cops most every day. I do my little part but a lot
of people get thier lives destroyed by thier actions. |
|
|

like seriously im havin to take this video in doses i can only watch so
much before i gotta pause it and take my mind off of it. it bothers me that ppl thnk so highly of themselves to take this kinda power over board. there are reasons they are given tazers and wat not. i mean hell we got rid of the guns cuz they just shot at ppl and now they do the same thing repeatedly and just like with the guns its often more than one cop. and all the deaths from these things i mean c'mon. these cops know wat it feels like, how could you put some one through that kinda pain, esp wen you've experienced it urself. i dont get it at all. |

thats what the 2nd Ancmendment was all about. being able to be armed to
defend yourself against government run amuck. Who do you call when the cops are the bad guys? FBI? DONT KNOW about the rest of the world but here they are in bed with the cops big time. |

it makes me so mad. i mean ive seen shit where the white cop beat the
black man and shit but this is different this is way beyond a club to the back or anything like that this shit really fucks with ur body. and i bet i know how random this id check was. poor man didnt look like he was from here and neither did his name. i hate assholes who look at someone and judge them by the way they look or there race. i mean this could be considered a hate crime if he wanted to push it |
|
|
|
i havent even finished watchin it
|
|
|
|
the end is bullshit too that cop threatenin to taze that kid if he didnt
leave. such bullshit |
|
|

oh yah. i have found though that it only gets attention if its a racial
issue. actually i see cops to be equal oppertunity opressors. You never see the footage of the black cop beating up the white guy, but it happens all the time too. I had a bunch of drunk drivers one time and they all had the same story: after they were cuffed the cop threw them on the pavement face first and maced them , then added a charge of resisting arrest. I think there were 8 of them all on the same nights arrests. Another thing... the cop has a pistol. mace, body armor, billy club, martial arts training, a trunk full of full auto weapons, shotgun rack in the frint seat of the cruiser... and he is afraid if he finds you have a knife??? cmon. whose parinoid here. |

yea its pretty crazy that the cops on the street have all this shit but
the guys on our borders dont have shit but authority nothing to swing or point at the illegals. all they have is the authority to tell them to stop put them in a truck take them back into mexico where they'll just turn around and do it smarter the next time |

This country have given you the freedom to hate your country, tarnish it
if you must, but understand, you have this freedom because of the few that fought, and have died. So keep with the tortuous language that only shows your worldly views are not your own but by papers that are subversive at best written by poorly read people themselves. |
|
|
|
my views are shaped by the fact that im a circuit court judge and i see
this shit all day long. Not gonna sugarcoat what i see. we live in a free country so dont you dare voice your opinion if its against the police? is that what you are saying? |
|
|
|
district court that is.
the police have prety much free reign these days. Its not hating your country to state the obvious. Its trying to wake people up to the truth. |
