Police and crime in Raleigh

Sorry but any teen dumb enough to participate in one of these “teen takeovers” is also too dumb to consider the extra charges they could potentially face if a curfew was also in effect. These are supremely DUMB fucking kids, let’s be so for real right now lmao

So, if that’s not the reason (which I said was just my guess), what would you propose the city do?

Scroll up. Police state checkpoints for all young looking people.

We would probably all have to go thru them, but it would be for the good of the children.

Or a ton of flock camera’s everywhere that activate tire puncture spikes that pop up whenever AI identifies a teenager in a car or e-bike out past curfew.

There are ways to do this, but do we really want to live in a surveillance / police state?

There is always a trade-off. Security vs. Privacy.

Confidence in Raleigh police continues to dwindle.

Why were her keys and wallet in her car though, if she just woke up? Doesn’t change the fact that the police response is terrible, but I still want to understand.

One thing that seems to be for certain to me is that at least one of these cars was driving faster than the 25MPH speed limit, and it could be that they were going significantly faster.

“No charges will be filed because police were unable to determine which driver was at fault” :double_exclamation_mark:

Ask AI if cars in accidents flip when traveling 25 MPH.

I always know when the PD has the horses out..

Well, you can’t say that the police don’t give a shit.

That’s funny but you’re telling me in 2026 the city has horses it allows to just shit on the street? Shouldn’t they have bags or something underneath? Letting a dog poop on the grass and leaving is against the law, but this is fine? I’d be calling Raleigh sanitation for a missed pickup.

I’m heading out on Glenwood at 10 PM tonight to observe where/how the police are staging the neighborhood. I’ll report back.

Totally a thing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ljlZqd5qot4

Still VERY rare. I’d still put my bet on speeding.

They finally arrested the guy who shot 4 people at Club (un)Alive. Dontayvious Cotton. Great name…
