There has been much talk of the need for growing radicalism among social workers in the UK.
Over in the US, one social who certainly doesn't lack radicalism has found himself on the wrong side of the law, Wired reports.
Anarchist social worker Elliott Madison had his home raided by the FBI, who were searching for evidence that he broke anti-rioting laws on Twitter.

Wired comments:
Madison, who counsels more than 100 severely mentally ill patients in New York, seems to have first drawn attention from the authorities at September's G-20 gathering of world leaders in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. There he was arrested on September 24 at a motel room for allegedly listening to a police scanner and relaying information on Twitter to help protesters avoid heavily-armed cops -- an activity the State Department lauded when it happened in Iran.
