Sounds like the cop thought he was Jack Bauer and felt the need to investigate this man's "ritual"; perhaps he was praying before Allah before detonating a bomb there? Maybe he was hax0ring into the coffee shop network to stealz some money! Thank goodness such a diligent officer of the law was there to give a man grief, 40 hours of picking up trash and take 400 hard earned dollars because he used something that was plainly available. If there were a sign on the coffee shop that said "no internets leeching!" i could see a problem, remedied by a slap on the wrist.
Some laws are just too stupid not to break.
