Sorry if this is a D_B

 

A D_B and the story is a week old.

 

My bad, I never saw it on here.

 

It's actually a pretty lengthy thread.

 

Yeah, but it didn't have this.

Turns out it was policy, just in case all you Bruins want to start up with any of that Martin Luther King bullshit with the UCLA rent-a-cops, for whom Bull Connor was quite the weenie.

 

(sj<40.com scrambling to Google "Bull Connor")

 

Bull Connor was the asshat who turned the firehoses on the civil rights protesters, right?

 

Birmingham police chief, let a lot of brutal things happen. You're probably thinking of Selma.

 

And ... UCLA didn't taser an Iranian student. UCLA campus police officers tasered a student.His nationality matters not.

 

This policy should be called "Lawsuits "r Us".

 

If his nationality doesn't matter, than neither does anything else.

"Two carbon-based life forms tasered a single carbon-based life form today in an attack that was captured on a cell phone. More at 11."

 

Sorry, just don't think it matters. A young man was killed in a terrible accident. I don't care if he's a fucking Martian.

Tell me why it matters.
