Trigger Happy Cop We’ve probably all heard about the Buena Park, CA off-duty policeman who threatened a shopper with a gun because he (wrongly) suspected the man of - gasp - having stolen a packet of mints. The Buena Park PD seem pretty sorry about the whole thing, but the incident is sadly indicative of a prevalent style of policing in this country - coercive, violent, and punitive. Action: Write or telephone the Buena Park Police Department to complain about the officer’s behavior. The Police Chief is Corey S. Sianez if you wish to write to him personally.
