So, this is what Britain has come to. Not actually committing an offence but arousing suspicion just because of the way he looked.

God this country stinks.

Moderation: Moved from "Discussion" to "Civil Liberties", renamed to match source.

Mind you "thought to be one of only two black farmers in the whole of Britain" is quite a statistic. I suppose anything that looks out of place can arouse suspicion. That's a pretty normal human response and remember the job of the police is to reduce crime. If I walked into a bank carrying a baseball bat and something over my head I'd probably get the same response, even though I might have a rare skin condition and just bought the bat while shopping. Normally the issue is resolved with a simple enquiry and people accept that. I think race is being brought into it unnecessarily.
