How to Lose All Faith in Your Fellow Man

In two easy steps:

Watch the video of Michael Richards losing it.

Then watch the video of the guy being tasered in the UCLA library.

You'll never go outside again.

Holy shit - that UCLA video was fucked.

Student's name was Mostafa Tabatabainejad so we thankfully have one last A-rab researching nuc-u-lar weapons at the library. Why else wouldn’t he show his ID?

Stuart, Monster Force, not sure if you all saw the Michael Richards apology where he seems to blame it on Katrina and says he's proud of the “Afro-Americans” for bringing his racial freak-out to the press.

Proud of their "solidarity."

Maybe that’ll help you regain some of that lost faith.

I hope that kid gets rich off the fat of the cops.

"I hope that kid gets rich off the fat of the cops"

I do too, so that the next time there's a problem on campus, the cops just stand back and watch so as not to possibly infringe on anybody's right to do whatever they want at any time with no consequences.

Anonymous, did you watch the clip? There's absolutely no reason for the cops to keep shocking that guy except that he won't get up when they tell him to. It's not even clear whether he's able to -- but even if he is, that's like shooting someone for calling you an asshole.

But then, right-wingers are just always looking for an excuse to torture somebody -- especially when they know they're wrong. It's a pathology I find particularly disturbing.

"Anonymous, did you watch the clip?"

Of course. Did you look into it any further past that?

P.S. UCLA: Hotbed of Conservatism!

Hey anonymii It's like you know two guys named Richard and you know you just have to call one of them Dick.

I saw that clip. At first I found it funny. But, after watching it a few more times, it wasn't really that funny.

The campus police yelling at the student to get up and he is trying to, only to be zapped over and over again. A little bit over kill.

BUT, we only see the kid getting his ass zapped, and not knowing the reason what started it in the first place.

You think that's good? How 'bout all these anti-communist Russkies defecting to the West and ending up like Karen Silkwood? Next thing ya know, the Feds and Dubya are gonna take the cue from their pal Putin, and start capping people with nuclear waste and blaming it on the KGB. Or Al Queda. Or the Democrats. I swear Pelosi had a chunk of it in her pumps. I bet the stuff start's showing up at Gitmo next....
