"Kent Police set a new legal precedent last week, as they arrested a photographer on
the unusual grounds of 'being too tall'."

He was arrested, essentially, For Looking A Bit Shifty.

And the police wonder why no-one fucking trusts them.

I can beat that. Stepped off a train in Melton Mowbray once and a copper swung a punch at me.

Turns out they'd got a report of soccer hooligans on one of the carriages, presumably this tool thought me being the first person off made me fair game.

Darn. I was just hoping that this would be a topic where we could list reasons why Kent sucks.

"We don't have any evidence. But you must admit-he does look a bit 'rape-y"

The Police-essentially the governments street gang with a good armoury and dodgy slang and gang garb.
I'd have more respect for a masked vigilante than a cop these days.

I think we have the BBC's new crime drama sewn up here.

As an aside, I e-mailed a link to the Beeb anyway.

They've had an article up for a bit, and I think it's a bit less biased. If he goes around photographing disused buildings and then refusing to show any ID, that's suspicious. Being tall isn't.

And two blokes coming up to you asking for I.D ain't suspicious either.
