		<description>I don&#039;t find anything about this story odd. I&#039;m convinced that the entire show was staged, and that the protests were prepared well in advance.

In three threads here, and two more at Patterico, I&#039;ve heard nobody else suggest that this Iranian-American student HAD an ID card, but fully intended to create a scene by refusing to show it. Knowing that the campus police would be called to respond to his violation of policy, he intentionally generated as much disruption as possible, first with a screaming fit as soon as he was touched, then dropping to the ground while continuing to shriek. That the UCPD officers didn&#039;t handcuff him suggests that he was physically avoiding contact, potentially thrashing around on the floor. 

Wrestling with a hysterical kid in the middle of a library isn&#039;t something the police would care to do, all they wanted was for him to get outside. 

The video of the event will not serve his side in a lawsuit. When proper authorities tell you repeatedly to get up and walk out, repeatedly warn of the consequences of non-compliance, it just doesn&#039;t look good.

At least he provided me some entertainment.</description>

		<description>From the article, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.payvand.com/news/06/nov/1221.html&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;&quot;Tehran denounces assault on Iranian student at UCLA&quot;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;em&gt;The United States has a long history of racism as well as violating the rights of its religious minorities and immigrants, he pointed out.&lt;/em&gt;

This is a red herring if ever there were one, and too simplistic, leaving a large gap in the facts to be taken without being placed into context.

1)  Slavery has been taking place throughout the world for thousands of years.

2)  In North America, including the antebellum United States, slavery lasted for approximately 300 to 400 years tops.  

3)  In the antebellum South (Of what is now the United States of America) there were approximately 3,000 black landowners who owned slaves.

4)  Africans were chief slave owners and slave traders throughout most of the recorded history of slavery on planet earth.

5)  Arabs are also among the chief slave owners in recorded history.

6)  Both Africans and Arabs were the chief peoples who captured, kidnapped, enslaved, and shipped to be traded in the slave trade.  

7)  In the world today, Arabs and Africans are the chief slave traders and slave owners.  

8)  Muslims are a very large portion of the slave owners and slave traders today.  

9)  Muslims have been among the most racist of peoples in the history of the world.  The Grand Mufti was personally involved with helping Hitler and his cronies hunt down and capture Jews and ship then off to death camps, or hunt them down and kill them.

10)  Throughout history, for the past 1,400 years Muslims throughout South Asia, the Middle East, and Northern Africa, have been actively involved in slave trade and ownership, as well as in attacking and slaughtering Hindus, Christians, Jains, Buddhists, Jews, Zoroastrians, and others.

11)  In the United States itself, blacks and Hispanics are the most racist groups.  Blacks practice institutionalized racism in education, politics, economics, media, comedy, entertainment, and in other areas as well.  They get a free pass on their racist treatment of whites, Asians, Orientals, etc., as well as their hate speech and racist speech against same.  Koreans have been subject to slurs by black mobs such as &quot;Blood suckers!  Go back to where you came from,&quot; and have endured vandalism against their property, such as shops, as well as personal attacks, violent attacks against their person.

Black comedians frequently engage in racist comments in their &quot;jokes,&quot; mocking Chinese, Indians, Pakistanis, Vietnamese, Koreans, Japanese, Koreans, and Caucasians alike, all without complaints of &quot;racism&quot; even though these insults are clear, up front, for all the world to see.

Julian Bond, Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, Harry Belafonte, members of the &quot;New Black Panther Party,&quot; Shabaz, Louis Farahkan, and company, and the list goes on, have all engaged in racist comments, shake downs, con games, false accusations, race mongering, race hustling, the whole nine yards, and walk free, unencumbered by their racist, arrogant, hate filled agenda and behavior.

12)  Jews and Caucasians in North America did more to help bring about civil rights, end slavery, and equal rights for blacks, Hispanics, Asians, Orientals, etc., than any other group.  They risked their lives in such projects as the underground railroad, in overturning segregation and racist abuses of blacks in the south and elsewhere.  Many Jews and Caucasians were kidnapped and tortured to death, set ablaze, flogged, and so on, while helping blacks escape both slavery and harsh treatment.

13)  In the past 300 years alone the most violent acts have been perpetrated by Mao Tse Dong, who killed tens of millions of Chinese; Joseph Stalin, who slaughtered more than 20 million; Hitler and the NAZI party who slaughtered more than 12 million people; Idi Amin, who slaughtered millions of people; Robert Zimbabwe, who confiscated farms from white farmers, butchered farm workers, and has led to the starvation and poverty in Zimbabwe; Sudan - which still practices slavery, and which has been engaged in genocide of black Christians, and certain Muslim sects; Mauritania - which still practices slavery; Cambodia - in which Pol Pot butchered and killed more than 2 million people; and the list goes on and on.

14)  The United States of America is among the most racially diverse countries in the history of the world.  Here one will find black males walking hand in hand with white females.  Chinese women marrying Hispanic men.  Hispanic men marrying black women.  Chinese men marrying cauciasian females.  Black women marrying Arab men, and so on.  Compare that to China, Iran, Korea, Mexico, and elsewhere, where these countries still are predominently pastuerized, with basically a predominently Chinese, Korean, or Iranian face.

The bogus, holier than though pabulum perpetrated by the likes of this &quot;Foreign Ministry spokesman Mohammad-Ali Hosseini&quot; is disingenuous to say the least.

In the worlds credited to Jesus the Christ, &quot;Let he who is without sin, throw the first stone.&quot;  &quot;First remove the mote from thine own eye before you point out the mote in your neighbor&#039;s eye.&quot;

In predominantly Muslim ruled countries Christians, Jews, Hindus, Buddhists, Jains, Sikhs, Ba&#039;hais, and others still undergo persecution, slaughter, abuse of personal freedoms, religious freedoms, and liberties.  The United States of America affords protections of these freedoms for all, which is why immigration is often a virtual one way street, with millions coming into the United States, and few going out.  People know that it is wonderful here and wish to be a part of it.

This entire line of thought, that the United States has a history of racism must be put in its proper perspective, and that includes looking at who engages in racism here - it is blacks, Hispanics, Arabs, and others, not just whites, and it is engaged in throughout Europe, Asian, Africa, and the Middle East.

Look at the pot calling the kettle black!

		<description>I had the same thing happen twice when I was using UCLA&#039;s Law Library to write a book two years ago.  

If you are a non-student, you have to carry a yellow card identifying you as such when you check in (non-students are permitted, but not during finals weeks), and twice someone came by and asked to see my yellow card as I sat in the stacks, as I had forgotten to leave it out where you could see it on the desk of the carrel (carell carrell? carol? car- oh, $#@ it) per their policy.

I would blog about it, but Firefox 2.0 has so seriously screwed up my iBookG4 or is so not interested in being friends and playing nice with google&#039;s blogger.com beta, that I can&#039;t.

Why I ever downloaded a &quot;.0&quot; piece of software anyway is just beyond me.  iTunes 7.0 was enough to learn that lesson for life.

Anyone with a suggestion on a remedy, please leave it here.  TIA</description>

		<description>Students at virtually any university actually sign a contract when they enter. One of the codicils in the contract is an agreement to follow the campus rules.
It is a &lt;strong&gt;legal, binding contract&lt;/strong&gt;.
It does not state, comply only with the rules you agree to! 
I was once asked to leave a laboratory on the campus I attended, because I forgot my identification. What did I do? I left, &lt;em&gt;not necessarily happily mind you&lt;/em&gt;, but I retrieved my identification.
I returned, produced the ID and continued my studies. 
I also learned a valuable lesson and remembered to carry my identification with me from that point forward.
What is so difficult about compliance? These &quot;Free Thinkers&quot; seem to believe that their free thinking also includes &quot;bucking authority&quot; at every opportunity. 
Was the response unwarranted? 
I truthfully do not know.
They should have cuffed him (whatever that would involve, considering the belligerence he was exhibiting) which might have ended up causing the student MORE harm and removed him from the building by force. 
What I do know is that this would be a moot point, had the student simply complied in the first place and retrieved his identfication. 
Society always begins to break down when people believe they are above the law. 
What a weenie!</description>
		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Students at virtually any university actually sign a contract when they enter. One of the codicils in the contract is an agreement to follow the campus rules.<br />
It is a <strong>legal, binding contract</strong>.<br />
It does not state, comply only with the rules you agree to!<br />
I was once asked to leave a laboratory on the campus I attended, because I forgot my identification. What did I do? I left, <em>not necessarily happily mind you</em>, but I retrieved my identification.<br />
I returned, produced the ID and continued my studies.<br />
I also learned a valuable lesson and remembered to carry my identification with me from that point forward.<br />

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;    Foreign Ministry spokesman Mohammad-Ali Hosseini has condemned the Tuesday attack by UCLA university police on an Iranian student in the United States.

    In a statement issued here on Saturday, he said that the physical attack has “hurt the feelings of the Iranian nation”.

    The United States has a long history of racism as well as violating the rights of its religious minorities and immigrants, he pointed out. &lt;/blockquote&gt;

My Puerto Rican comes out when hearing this mierda, and only  wants to tell them, &quot;Vayanse al carajo, maricones! And mind your own business!&quot;</description>

		<description>&lt;em&gt;....am I the only martyr?&lt;/em&gt;

Okay, since you&#039;re a student and probably know the rules about showing your ID, why make yourself a martyr? You want attention, you got it. Now maybe the UCPD should have turned up the juice on that there Taser and given Tabatabainejad al-Moron the martyrdom and 71/72/73 virgins he really wanted in his life.

Let me give you some advice......just don&#039;t play with the cops. Make it easy on yourself and just show them your ID al-Moron types.</description>
