The Really Real OC: Police State? Murder and Violence; plus Local OC news and more April, May 2013

Local Orange County CA News

The world should know that the home of Mickey Mouse (the first original Disneyland) and the now called Los Angeles Angels (of Anaheim) baseball team is also a high crime, gang filled city, AND police state! Anaheim, California is a city that is increasing its police tactics allowing murder and mayhem from police themselves that are supposed to serve the people and protect the people. There is murder and violence among citizens also, but "the law" needs to do there job correctly and humanely in not just Anaheim, all of OC, LA and the nation. There is so much corruption and there is too much tolerance regarding US citizens rights being violated.

All across America more and more police state intolerances for peaceful protestors and others are being harmed. When peaceful protest is stopped riots and anger are the result of citizens.

The real OC...

Recent news in south east Orange County May 2013 local news. Chemtrail skies today, I saw a jet fly high up in the sky with chemtrails or contrails shooting out. Wether that was one of the chemtrail jets I don't know. But it is certain chemtrails were sprayed by just looking at the sky. It is a hot dry day today in Orange County, CA. Hearing a loud helicopter above my home I looked up to see a "SHERIFF" sign on the helicopter. I went to my front yard and tried to video tape it but I didn't click record right. It left as I stood on my front lawn with my laptop aimed to the sky. I wonder... are they patrolling spying on citizens or looking for somebody? Strange that it circled twice in my neighborhood and left as I have seen many times. Oh, now I see police - 3 police down the street right now as I write this blog post. They are stopped at a house down the street. Earlier today I saw a girl distraught worried looking for her boyfriend. I don't know if this is related, as she was calling out her boyfriend's name around my home. I talked to her to make sure she was OK. It must be related. The SUV Sheriff just slowed and stared at me and drove off since I am sitting in my front yard. She was looking around people's homes which is trespassing. I did not call authorities, but I see the sheriff's stopped down the street. Unless it's something else going on? I thought I lived in a nice safe area. Orange County sheriffs (they are sheriffs not police here in OC) on duty after helicopter circled.

 

Sirens nearby...

 

I hear more sirens on a daily basis like the time I lived near a fire station. Where I live now I hear sheriff car sirens, fire truck, and ambulance sirens randomly nearly every day. This is not New York. These are nice homes but still close by many apartments and a little further away about a few miles there are other not so good areas that even recently had news of stabbing near a highschool where a 24 year old man was arrested and 2 possibly in custody after treatment I'm not sure.

• Becareful kids, don't joke around it's serious consequences, this kid learned the hard way. The same highschool had a bomb threat on Dooms Day December 21, 2012 I think from a Facebook comment. This made the news and many people didn't attend school that day. This OC Highschool, Trabuco Hills High School now has "lockdown" drills where no one can leave the class not even for the bathroom. This may be other schools. It used to just be earthquake and fire drills. And when a kid pulled the fire alarm for whatever attention seeking reason the kid didn't get arrested with a felony, suspended maybe, not arrested.

The Real OC Orange County CA Home of Disneyland, Anaheim Angels, Palm Trees, Beaches, Crime and Police

Christian based news of Orange County, CA and abroad.

In Orange County, CA it's not all about gorgeous and peaceful ocean views, swaying palm trees, and sunny sunshine. Anaheim is one prime example that the REAL OC is not just home to Mickey Mouse, and surfers or the rich in one of the most expensive places to live.

NBC News today: July 25 Anaheim protesters turn to riot; police shoot pepper spray


Anaheim: A nice place that I would not choose to live in. It is not the top of my list of places to live in due to crime, gangs, drugs, and apparently a policeman, in caution, that shot an unarmed man (-see news link above- this has happened here in OC and I'm sure other places abroad). There are nicer places in Anaheim, with nice homes known more as Anaheim Hills, but near Disneyland, I'm sorry to say is not the safest of areas. This would not stop me from going there, but it would stop me from moving here, unless it's downtown in Disneyland square. :) California Adventure Park is also located adjacent to Disneyland in Anaheim, which is the birthplace of the first Disneyland. Anaheim is the oldest city in Orange County.

Some people meeting Mickey Mouse (opens in separate window).

Other cities I would not choose to live in: Santa Ana is next on the list due to gang and poverty crime areas (also home to one of the Orange County Jails), San Juan Capistrano (famous historical place and home of the returning Swallows (birds) is also home to gangs). While most of SJC is nice I would not live near gang areas. Garden Grove also a higher crime area and the city of Orange also makes the list on my no go except to shop in the nice market places there -which I also have to add to my gluten-free readers opened a store in Old Town Market Place featuring gluten free foods recently-.

There are other cities I would not choose to live in that I haven't listed here, and while others like these areas still, I am cautious when even going to all of these cities. It's too bad OC can't maintain it's beauty and peace. I would guess that money is the main factor that crime is higher is some areas.

What do we do about crime? How can we help our children? Protest and Riot? Protesting is good and has its place, without the crime and violence from either party (the law and the people). I'll just pray.

My prayer for OC: Gangs decrease and end and replace Jesus in their hearts where there is anger and pride. More help for those struggling financially, and a good police system with less flaws. Thank you Jesus -amen.

Chart of Crime in larger cities of Orange County

That said, even the nicest lowest crime areas mostly in South O.C. still have crime, some gang activity, and even murder also. Like anywhere, there is crime. Be safe, lock your doors, and keep pepper spray (stay away from protesters and police with pepper spray), alarm your home, teach your kids about crime and safety, keep watch over your kids playing outside also as there are child predators too.

Orange County is a great place to live, just be aware also of the not so great areas, and in the good areas still be cautious, but most of all enjoy living! Worrying doesn't add a day to your life.

Nice Areas of OC are also Not So Nice -Orange County CA Review

There are many known cities or areas that are nice and not so nice, even within the city. The other day in Garden Grove it seemed to need a little helping hand as far as cosmetics go. It was interesting to see Vietnamese-American shops etc. but nothing too special. The area of the city I saw was not kept up that well and did not seem like a very good neighborhood. The neighboring city, Anaheim, CA. one might think that this "Disneyland city", or the famous past name of the Anaheim Angels (which is now for publicity reasons I think, the "Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim" or something like that) must be a beauty, well it's not, at least not at every turn. There are nice parts of Anaheim, today I saw a very nice neighborhood with nice cozy homes, and outside the homes on the main streets only some gang related spray paint signs. But even the cities with good reviews have their share of gangs and riffraff. Illegal drug use, thefts and other crimes still happen even in posh neighborhoods, though most trouble occurs in the poorer, lower rent areas. That said, just because someone or a family for that matter is low income, does not mean they are probably a crime family. I have known many low income, hard working families that are trying legitimately to climb their way out of a struggling economy. California is in debt, and the expensive Orange County has it's own troubles, school budgets are tight, public bus system has also made cut backs in transportation, and health insurance for the poor is limited and little to no dental and mental health coverage for low income adults.

 If the states budget would help those helping themselves more, maybe they could get a step ahead and there could be less crime and less poverty. But the system designed to help through the social service system rarely rewards dilligent hard workers receiving cash or food assistance, for the earned income they make hardly gets them ahead of the low income game. It is not a game at all, but a struggle. Cash and food assistance gets depleated or stopped all together, so there is no getting ahead, but staying at a poverty level. Something to think about.


In the beauty of So Cal. there is also hardships, crime, and poverty.

mewithoutYou at Chain Reaction Anaheim, CA June 2010 Music Review Orange County

Went to mewithoutYou show at Chain Reaction in Anaheim, CA. Chain Reaction club - a punk like trashed club decor of graffiti styled walls, textured with A.B.C. gum, and curse words. But how nice the treasure of seeing and hearing an uplifting poetic band play in such a place and such a band as mewithoutYou. I also very much enjoyed Rubik, a band I haven't heard before. They were very instrumentally fun to watch and uniquely played a combination of instruments including maracas and slide trombones, still with a little edgy rock and unique sound lead vocalist. I will be checking out more about them. David Bazan also played, a guitar soloist, though not my taste, some seemed to enjoy.

I first heard mewithoutYou, via online thanks to my brother, this song- and still my favorite song, In a Sweater Poorly Knit. It caught my attention immediately and I have enjoyed their unique music since. I love the album, Brother, Sister and the new album mewithoutYou it's all crazy! it's all false! it's all a dream it's alright is very well done musically and lyrically with deep thought, and uniquely provoking me to dance. They do not claim to be a "Christian band", Aaron Weiss the lead singer is though, and their songs have a Christian message with other influences, and a very unique way of storytelling; a poetically lyrical way to reach their audience. At times, you have to carefully listen to what is being said in their lyrics. Lyrics include a sneaky clever fox, a quick crow, a king beetle, "a Stick, a Carrot, and String".

I am so glad I caught their show and in such a small place as to see them perform a few feet away. It was a joy to see their simple hippie styled motor-home bus (of which they had glued newspapers around the tires), and in a simple small place in an otherwise materialistic Orange County, Cali. I only wish I asked for them to sign my shirt! I look forward to seeing them play again! mwY- hope your coming back soon?!
