The press has a new Muslim

By

Google currently lists 334 news stories about Mostafa Tabatabainejad. The events which inspired this? The AP/CNN report says,

A UCLA police officer shocked a student with a stun gun at a campus library after he refused repeated requests to show student identification and wouldn't leave, police said.[...]

She said police tried to escort Tabatabainejad, 23, out of the library after he refused to provide identification. Tabatabainejad instead encouraged others at the library to join his resistance, and when a crowd began to gather, police used the stun gun on him, Greenstein said.

Tabatabainejad was arrested for resisting and obstructing a police officer and later released on his own recognizance. He declined to comment Wednesday night.

Update:

So far none of the Muslim/left—wing blogs (and even some "legitimate" news sites) that have postings about the Tabatabainejad tasering have mentioned that he refused repeated requests to show a student ID, refused repeated requests to leave or that he encouraged others at the library to join his resistance before the campus police resorted to the use of their tasers. They all give some version of "he was walking out when police grabbed him and began to taser him."
