They were very nice young people, they came quickly and we're very respectful and courteous and professional.. and they taught me I was reading my o2 monitor wrong for years! Was happy to see a young lady working with the guys.. For needing abulance, it was a good experience in general.. as they were very gentle and kind and I felt well cared for in a very uncomfortable situation... I was just very greatfull to them.. I noticed they were all beautiful people too... God bless the l. B. F. D. Keep them safe.. in Jesus' name! read more

As a long-time resident of a neighboring state, I was shocked and appalled at the degree of brazen corruption and lawlessness displayed by virtually everyone at the Long Beach Police Department except for one or two officers. Kevin Brazil seems to be a decent man whose application of the law is not influenced by factors such as how long someone has lived in the community he serves. Aside from him, most of the other Long Beach cops I've encountered have been extremely corrupt, displaying blatant favoritism in their treatment of long-time residents of the city relative to citizens who moved to Long Beach more recently. I have invested nearly a half-million dollars into this community over the course of the past four years, and I'm ready to sell my house and leave due to the incessant harassment I endure from a corrupt police force, officer Brazil notwithstanding. I pay more than my fair share of taxes, and to be targeted by the police department for unmerited traffic stops, searches and myriad other forms of harassment and intimidation with the intent seemingly being to get as much money out of me as is humanly possible before they drive me away for good is deplorable and an example of corruption at its very worst. read more

Excellent Group of Public Servants Long Beach can get rid of every service except the Fire Department and use the savings to lower our absurd and obscene taxes. All I need from this city if fire protection. I don't need the cops, and I don't need the corrupt political hacks. The paid professional fire department keeps my fire insurance premiums low and my family safe. Thank you, to the professional paid firemen of Long Beach. read more
