The household I'm not getting away from yet just delights in making "natural" treating everyone like pets or little kids to overcompensate feeling like kids or little pets, and when someone doesn't just take orders or makes everyone feel alive, "punishment", psychiatric drugs, hospital commitments, and yes, cop calls. We've had valid calls to the cops no matter who's responsible, but because of few options for intervention and a poor admission of accountability in the household and trying to figure out which resident or guest takes the weight of response, the police in the end coming for nothing, and no action is taken by anyone. ANYONE, police NOT exclusive, I emphasize. They're composed during responses, can handle straightforward procedure well, there's enough dialogue they maintain to get an extent of facts. Although I don't attribute this solely to the police, there's a rigidity of certain protocols, there does need to be more communication of situations to figure out solutions, and circumstances do need to be weighed accordingly to make that right solution by everyone's efforts as we're involved. But the communities need to step up to that too, half the houses at the suburban division I'm at need police intervention at least once, the vast majority of the CITY, "safest in America", BLAMES anyone who has the thought on their mind and when people cry from being afraid to face the reality when someone brings it up. As much as the community needs to get over their reservations, take deep breaths, and settle all problems instead of treat this region like the business "ticket out and to the world" district it is, the police should be open and ready too, without stressing themselves and walking or sprinting through as needed, and the city as a whole needs to welcome the (I've very sure) significant extent of the police already inclined and hopeful. We've had great responses, we talk things out, address things accordingly, consider keeping information on file, etc. There needs to be mature, personal dynamics of not assuming about everyone else and sacrificing enough stagnancy to just walk through circumstances to the end, especially with the risk of worsening. I'm here when everyone's ready, best of luck.

Recently had to call RPD for the first time. I have for years thought they were the ELITE of the…read moreWake County area but after this call I lost respect. #1 - I am the one who called 911 for service. They did not even come to my home first bc they were flagged down by the group of people I was calling to complain on. (They had no idea who my complaint was about and yet instead of coming to the address of the person who called in reference to threats of being shot they go to a different place. 2) None of the officers I spoke to had a care in the world. My wife noticed it, my kids ages 19,17 noticed it. I have been a homeowner where I live for over a decade and we have these renters that come in every 6-18 month to these 2 homes at the end of our street. Every single person that has lived in these houses have been a nuisance. Two gentleman came to my home and literally stated they were going to kill my kids and wife and RPD did absolutely nothing. I reported a vehicle sitting in the roadway with no tags and RPD did nothing. They literally watch this person go in the house, get a tag from another car and put it on the vehicle. 2 hours later I drove by and that tag had also been changed over to a dealer tag. ( I spoke to a sergeant about this and his response was "well if we ticket them now it may escalate the situation) They wrote no tickets, even though the vehicle was also parked within 20 ft of a stop sign nothing was done. (It has been sitting in the same spot since and nothing has been done) I will never again call RPD if the two officers I dealt with are what they are training. I went through BLET in 2000 when popat first started. My vehicles say retired on my tags and everything. I don't expect special treatment but Maybe a tad more respect or professional courtesy since I have been in those shoes before, kind of like respecting your elders. Don't talk down to me as if I am stupid because I am not currently working. I have already been there and done that and may know a little more than you do. One would think these younger officers would like to learn but it seems they just want to clear the call as quickly as possible. There are always cars parked blocking the intersection, illegally parked, if a fire truck were to need to get down to my house they couldn't even get here because of ppl parking along side the road. RPD never patrols the neighborhood, and when you call them they make you feel dumb like you have no clue what you are talking about. Also the new standard of police work is they ask you for video recording so I guess you are supposed to go around recording your whole life every single day. As a retired officer I used to be proud to say I live in the City of Oaks where RPD protects us but now I see RPD is really going downhill and doesn't give a damn about community policing. They just want to clear calls as quickly as possible.

I'm a little sick of being pulled over here in the USA because it almost never happens in England. This country is really messed up in the people living here don't even realize half of it because they haven't experienced things elsewhere. In any case they didn't give me a ticket and were friendly enough so I will give them a neutral 3-star rating for now.

This is the most atrocious and disgusting situation I have ever witnessed involving the Wake County…read moreSheriff's Office. The conduct displayed here is not only unprofessional but a complete violation of civil rights and basic human decency. An officer arrived at a home in a quiet neighborhood and, when nobody answered, simply let himself in. There was no emergency, no warrant, and no permission. Minutes later, he shot and killed the family's beloved Belgian Malinois, Zelda. The homeowners were not there--the husband was at work, the wife was out of town, and the four children were at school. Zelda was simply doing her job: protecting her home from an intruder. Instead of immediately contacting the family to inform them of this tragedy, the officer called for backup. An "army" of police arrived and proceeded to circle the wagons. For 40 minutes, they searched the family's home, garage, and backyard--again, without a warrant, without permission, and without notifying the homeowners. To date, there seems to be no accountability. No apology, no compensation for the trauma inflicted, and no prosecution for the officer who unlawfully entered a private residence and killed a family member. This department needs to be held accountable for this gross overreach and the heartbreaking loss of Zelda. Citizens should feel safe in their homes, not terrified of the people hired to protect them.

Weirdly enough, the State Surplus Property Agency was recommended to me by a local Cary business…read moreowner. During a day trip in Cary, playing "tourist" we were looking for things to do, and the surplus agency sounded like an adventure. And let me tell you, an adventure it is! You never know what you're going to find at the surplus, but it's all items that have been donated by the state through confiscation [at the airport, drug busts, etc] or from state offices [colleges, government buildings, etc]. When getting to the Surplus, if you're headed down Chapel Hill Road AWAY from Cary, take the second gravel entrance [past the building] and park in front of the chainlink fence. Walk through the chainlink fence and walk up the stairs located to your right. Among other things, you'll possibly be greeted by some trackers or cars initially, and then you walk inside and hit "the good stuff." Everything from old school notebooks, medical equipment, pocket knives, laptops, bullet casings, and bottle openers. You've also got a mix of office chairs, desks and tables mixed in with your random collection of laboratory refrigerators, arcade games a possible piano and lawn chairs. It really can be a hit or a miss at the surplus, and if you're looking for something specific, this might not be the best place to look. However, that being said, if you are looking for a general piece, this place could be perfect for you! I'd say the surplus is most full of desks and chairs, so if you're into recovering/refinishing things this is a great spot to purchase something cheap! Other items go through a bidding system, which is a little more complicated and time consuming, so look for the items that you can take home that day.
