UCLA Student Tasered by Campus Police

We watched this youtube clip of Muslim UCLA student, Mostafa Tabatabainejad, being repeatedly stunned with a taser gun in the UCLA library because he refused to show his ID to campus security on November 14, 2006. It was captured with someone's cellphone.

what we do

In the Fall of 2006 we were using this blog to follow the police shooting of Sean Bell in NYC, as well as other cases of police brutality and excessive force by law enforcement. When we started to look at the increased policing in our schools and communities, we began to realize how much money the city officials and the government were putting into police and prisons (instead of towards education, job training and other things people really need). On a national level, the military and war spending is the biggest place where our tax dollars go...we're currently working on a parody about this~ SO STAY TUNED!
