I can't remember the date and time but, I received a parking citation by an officer named T. Munoz…read more I understand that my vehicle was not parked correctly and my feelings got the best of me. I was upset, like anyone else would be. But my concern is that the officer giving me the citation, didn't try to deescalate or mitigate the situation. In fact, he kept saying smart remarks as if he wanted me to react to the situation more. Another officer showed up by the name of Luna. As soon as she stepped out of her truck, she came to me in a calm, professional manner. She explained the circumstances of my citation and she was understanding as well. But above all, she remain calmed, making me calm. She instantly mitigated and deescalated the whole situation to a zero. We need more officers like Luna who are compassionate, understanding, professional and calming when the situations are high and not be power hungry officers like Munoz. Thank you Officer Luna for treating me like a human and for overall having respect.

And I do not feel safe and/or the great/positive fuzzy feelings with them in any way anymore. Even though I was warned by some people about the personnel at the Westminster Police Department in California (and the entirety of WPD as a whole / an entity), I have always had their side / six with and against naysayers about them and people calling them negative names. I would let those people know the positives that I see in them; my experiences with the positive personnel, who I've experienced; etc. (never the negatives). My recent experiences with them - their lack of protection for me (as a victim - they took my abuser's side and sent/locked me away; ignored me [my pleas and cries and just wanting closure] and their negative attitude, demeanor, and responses towards me). These and more has ended me from being one of their donors (been a donor for years; I am so ashamed with myself for losing hundreds of dollars to them [probably, even thousands because I've been paying decades in taxes, too]), my protection against any naysayers and negative people towards them (I no longer have their six because they did not have mine at all), my beliefs that they are protectors against all evil-doers (I feel like such a fool), etc. I even connected with WPD for assistance. What a joke with WPD's assistance. Didn't even give me closure. Their Commander and Sergeants were rude to me and ignored me for asking about (and for closure and results of their reviews/investigations). Again, I want to reiterate that I did not feel and/or receive any of their MISSION STATEMENT and CORE VALUES experiences in my recent experiences with them. And I do not feel safe and/or the great/positive fuzzy feelings with them in any way anymore. The mission of the Westminster Police Department is to protect the lives and property of the people they serve, to reduce crime, and to enhance the quality of life in the community with commitment, compassion, and integrity.

I explained that traffic was moving at about 5 mph, that I was following the flow of traffic, and that I had changed lanes before the solid white line because no one was allowing me to merge. He responded that he could not hear me. Later, I informed him that my driver's license still showed my old address because I had recently moved to Orange County. He immediately replied that I needed to update my address. This left me confused. If you could hear and respond to my comment about my address, why couldn't you hear my explanation regarding the lane change? I left the interaction feeling that my side of the story was not fully considered. I respect law enforcement and understand the importance of traffic safety, but I believe drivers should be given a fair opportunity to explain their perspective and feel heard during an interaction.

All in all, I hope i never have to come here again.

I dont know if I'd call myself a fan, but as a juror, it's not a completely horrible experience…read more I'm writing all this down because there's a surprising lack of information on here about it. I had rescheduled Jury Duty and carefully calculated myself to report the week of Thanksgiving, hoping to get excused due to the holidays. I *think* this would have worked if I had remembered to check in on the correct day. My call-in day was the day before Thanksgiving. I didn't check in until Friday. That was my stupid mistake. Don't make this mistake. Anyway, when I checked in on Friday, I was given a new juror call-in group. I had to call in on Monday... then Tuesday... and on Wednesday I was requested to come to the courthouse at 8AM. *screams into the void* PARKING: There's free parking JUST FOR JURORS across the street. There are metal detectors when you enter the courthouse. Please don't bring any weapons or anything dumb. AMENITIES: Vending machine, WiFi, work tables and power outlets along some walls, a fridge and microwave for your lunch if you bring one, and unisex individual bathrooms in the jury waiting room. No cafeteria on site... you'll have to get in your vehicle or walk somewhere for a proper lunch. If you make it to lunch, your lunch break is from 12PM - 1:30PM. PROCESS: After the metal detectors, you follow the signs for "Jury Assembly Room". You check in there and get your jury badge at 8AM. You watch an orientation video telling you the importance of serving. Then you wait. Please don't be an asshole and talk on your phone on speaker in the assembly room, it's annoying. Do bring headphones if you hate the sounds of people and want to watch something on your ipad or phone. Once the courts were finally in session, all the jurors were randomly separated into groups of about 75 and sent to courtrooms. This is when the judge tells you the foundational gist of what the trial will be about, and about how long you will be on trial if chosen. From there, about 24 people were randomly selected and asked pertinent questions by the judge and attorneys. Questions like occupation, do you know cops, have you had bad experiences with them, can you in good faith produce a fair and unbiased judgement on the case based on the content of the case. Based on your answers, you will either stay or be dismissed. If a person is dismissed, someone else from the pool of people in the courtroom will take their place. SPOILER ALERT: Just because English isn't your first language doesn't mean you will automatically dismissed. Even the guy who worked graveyard until 5am who showed up at 8am on no sleep AND didn't speak English fluently wasn't dismissed... so you're going to have to suck it up. Sorry folks, we all don't want to be there. If for some reason you cannot serve and are excused by the judge, you are done for the day and have fulfilled your service for the year. You can pick up a note from the assembly room if you need it for work. I think that covers everything. Bring entertainment, headphones, snacks, and hope you don't get called... but there's a good chance you will if you're there.

Nevertheless, I am going to write. Their stating that you can receive an excuse for being an elderly caregiver is an OPEN LIE. They state that, but then you don't get that. So, newsflash OC Court people. I will make you a deal. You send one of your clerks here to take care of a 94 year old with dementia every day I might have to be on jury duty, and we will be good! You take him out to lunch. You follow him around when he gets lost, which is a daily thing. You make sure he doesn't go into the street. Yes, as Yelp says, I think this post IS looking pretty epic! How about this instead? Why don't you QUIT with the AI decision making on excuse requests (because I just know you wouldn't ordinarily respond within three hours), and TAKE OFF caring for someone as an excuse because you are LYING by keeping it up on the website! You DON"T do that, so DO NOT LIE ABOUT IT.

Oh famous Beach Blvd. Always busy…read more The famous Beach Blvd, where so many destinations lie, in cities such as HB, Fountain Valley, Westminster, Garden Grove, Stanton, Anaheim, Buena Park, and even more cities than you realize. I try to avoid it as much as possible, but sometimes if I want to go certain places I just deal with it. Sometimes my GPS insists, and if its late enough I will just deal with it. Otherwise I will try to find another route. So the pros: There are many places located on it. Also there are many lanes on each side, allowing for faster traffic since so many people use it. I will be honest, I don't remember offhand. I know that there are at least four. Traffic seems to move fairly well most of the time due to the amount of lanes. The cons: Too many people on it, and there tends to be a lot of speedy and zig zaggers on this street. Also it seems to be notorious for having street walkers on it. I have only seen them twice, but I know other people see them far more often. Maybe it's because I try to avoid it. Even if I need to go somewhere on it, I usually take another street until I get to the nearest cross street, and then head over to Beach Blvd. If you are on it late at night or early in the morning, it moves great, but there are STILL tons of drivers on it. I struggle with worrying about many crazy drivers more than it moving. If you are on Beach Blvd. you have an advantage. I have noticed that every cross street I use to go through Beach Blvd. to my destination, that the people on it get an extremely long signal, and us going through it get about two seconds. Then you wait for an extremely long time again. Some days you are lucky and hit the light green and do not have to wait on the Beach Blvd. people. Some may say that they "cruise" Beach Blvd. I guess it makes more sense than streets such as Bellflower Blvd.
