I'm surprised he got away with fillming it cos he wasn't in a public place.
Still, it's rather alarming, stopping and searching people for no reason at all.

I think it's easier to deal with being searched when it's genuinely random (and this sounded genuinely random), as opposed to being chosen because of the colour of your skin, hair or clothes. Still wouldn't enjoy it though.

fuck that; its lazy and authoritarian with no proven impact on 'terror' (whatever that is).

suspicion with evidence should be minimum grounds for stop n search
