Being a geek is not a crime!

Very scary story from yesterday's Grauniad about a geek who was stopped and searched by coppers in a tube station for... carrying a laptop and wearing a jacket. This errorism bollocks is getting really silly.

And, of course, the fact that this guy was a suspect, his fingerprints and his DNA will remain with the coppers forever. Great! Wouldn't be surprised if he suddenly starts getting singled out for "special" treatment when travelling to other countries.
