I know this looks long and whatever....but please read and educate yourself.

This ones for you Ricky.
4 Years ago yesterday an incredibly close friend of mine got beat almost to death by 2 police officers in East Los Angeles. He was pulled over by the police officers because he was a bald headed hispanic driving a brand new expensive car. They told him to get out of the car to search his vehical, when he asked why, they just told him to get out of the car or they will send him to jail. He demanded to know why and they beat him , to the point where he was in a coma for 3 months. Almost every single bone was broken in his body, he has damages that he will have for the rest of his life. He was lucky to live. What happened to the police? Nothing, no trial, nothing...why....because they said they had to use necessary force. The last time i checked...you do NOT need to beat someone almost to death because they dont get out of a car they bought with clean money, just because they fit a certain group of people. I love that guy and i HATE the fact that there are people who abuse their authority. And he lives everyday with such issues, and those cops go on and dont even get punished. Now that's what I call...a fucking problem.

Instead of damn fighting for war for oil and all the other garbage and distruction we are doing everywhere, we as a nation need to look at our police, our homeless, our drug sales and every other damn problem we have and work on that instead of causing more problems.

How about Darfur? You think we would be at "war to protect the rights of people" if they had damn oil?

At around 11:30 p.m., CSOs asked a male student using a computer in the back of the room to leave when he was unable to produce a BruinCard during a random check. The student did not exit the building immediately.

The CSOs left, returning minutes later, and police officers arrived to escort the student out. By this time the student had begun to walk toward the door with his backpack when an officer approached him and grabbed his arm, at which point the student told the officer to let him go. A second officer then approached the student as well.

The student began to yell "get off me," repeating himself several times.

It was at this point that the officers shot the student with a Taser for the first time, causing him to fall to the floor and cry out in pain. The student also told the officers he had a medical condition.

UCPD officers confirmed that the man involved in the incident was a student, but did not give a name or any additional information about his identity.

Video shot from a student's camera phone captured the student yelling, "Here's your Patriot Act, here's your fucking abuse of power," while he struggled with the officers.

As the student was screaming, UCPD officers repeatedly told him to stand up and said "stop fighting us." The student did not stand up as the officers requested and they shot him with the Taser at least once more.

"It was the most disgusting and vile act I had ever seen in my life," said David Remesnitsky, a 2006 UCLA alumnus who witnessed the incident.

As the student and the officers were struggling, bystanders repeatedly asked the police officers to stop, and at one point officers told the gathered crowd to stand back and threatened to use a Taser on anyone who got too close.

Laila Gordy, a fourth-year economics student who was present in the library during the incident, said police officers threatened to shoot her with a Taser when she asked an officer for his name and his badge number.

Gordy was visibly upset by the incident and said other students were also disturbed.

"It's a shock that something like this can happen at UCLA," she said. "It was unnecessary what they did."

I dont know if any of you have ever been tasered before, I havent. But I have seen people get tasered and let me tell you...you CANNOT JUST GET UP AFTER BEING TASERED. Your entire body goes numb and from his cries I bet you can hear the pain. SO THE DAMN FACT THAT YOU TASER HIM AGAIN AND AGAIN BECAUSE HE CANT GET UP FROM THE LAST TIME YOU TASER HIM IS FUCKING RIDICULOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I AM SOOOO SICK AND TIRED OF PEOPLE GETTING HARASSED AND ABUSED BY COPS. THIS NEEDS TO STOP NOW!!!!
