He said that Tabatabainejad, when asked for his ID after 11 p.m. Tuesday, declined because he thought he was being singled out because of his Middle Eastern appearance. Yagman said Tabatabainejad is of Iranian descent but is a U.S.-born resident of Los Angeles.

A "U.S.-born resident of Los Angeles" should know better than anyone that when the police tell you stand up or sit down, YOU DO IT!!!

And as a black man, pal, lemme tell you something -- when people who look like you act like a-holes on a regular basis, people will make presumptions about you. It is at that point you have to make a decision; do you want to break the cycle of unfair stereotypes, or do you want to act like an a-hole since they think you are anyway?

You took the latter path, and you've got scars to show for it. You deserve each one of them. Don't look to me for sympathy, you won't get it. In short, I don't CAIR.

In my book this Iranian boy treated the campus police with extreme disdain and disrespect. He did many things to annoy and provoke them. All that was asked for was student his ID
