Lady offering pens gets visit from PCSO.

Sussex police confirm it is not being treated as a police matter.

So why did the PCSO take the lady's details?

She was not committing a crime and did not have to give her details.

Perhaps she was handing out these: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/141780920444

Don't accept pens from strangers.

Just goes to show that the police don't know what they are doing, and are no longer fit for purpose. Great at being politically correct, crap at everything else.

The VAST majority of police officers join straight from university having failed to get any other employment. They have never worked in the real world, or lived in the real world. Just like most MPs.

All they have to do is tick boxes, discretion is not allowed and probably not even understood by most of them.

That was a plastic copper. One up from a carpark ticket checker.
