"Raleigh, N.C. — Raleigh police are looking for two men in connection with a robbery and shooting that happened early Monday. Investigators said two men approached the victim shortly before 2 a.m. as he was walking along Kent Road, stole his wallet and shot him. The victim was taken to WakeMed in Raleigh with injuries that, police said, did not appear to be life-threatening. Police did not have a detailed description of the suspects."

Wow, and I was walking down Kent Rd. to get to cookout at about 3:00 AM Sunday morning. I told my idiot roommate it was a bad idea at the time. I'd like to thank this guy for getting shot to prove me right.

8/23/2010 9:02:16 AM

i would never EVER walk down that road at any time during the night by myself or even with someone else. kent rd is teh sketch

8/23/2010 9:02:49 AM

True. I think I have an inflated sense of security because I survived a year on Method Rd. without anybody robbing or shooting me.

8/23/2010 9:05:53 AM

I have made that walk plenty of times smashed.

8/23/2010 9:23:32 AM

can someone explain to me the "OFF KAPLAN!!!!!!" thing?

8/23/2010 9:29:51 AM

well this really is "off kaplan" - kent is what connects kaplan to western

8/23/2010 9:42:27 AM

Kent rd is off kaplan

8/23/2010 9:43:01 AM

It's a TWW meme, dating back to 2007 or earlier.

8/23/2010 9:45:02 AM

Biofreak and I used to drive down kent and through the projects many a light night for some stoner taco bell. mmm memories.

For a year I lived right next to Trees and Leaves on Kent rd. After a certain point at night it felt sketch to walk from the parking lot up to my 2nd floor apartment.

8/23/2010 10:43:05 AM

I would never walk down that street.

8/23/2010 11:11:19 AM

how you gonna shoot the person anyhow when they already gave you the stuff, like isnt the point of the gun during the robbery like "hey if you comply im not gonna shoot you" I mean hell if they are gonna shoot you anyway why not just run like hell and hope they miss?

8/23/2010 1:27:41 PM

This is, like, the third robbery in three days in our area.

8/23/2010 1:31:40 PM

...Good thing cops are out busting pot-heads and college keggers. You know, the real criminals

Heaven forbid they actually spend money to reduce violent crime. (instead of making money from drug related property forfeiture.)

Heaven forbid they actually exert effort to go out and find and bust violent criminals. (instead of relying on snitches and 911 calls.)

stupid fucking cops + stupid fucking laws + backwards police budget = violent burglars own the streets

Why do people seem to think "u mad?" is at all funny or relevant?
Do they think they're calling someone out?
"Ooo... I perceive an emotion coming from this person. I'll post a funny meme. That'll get 'em. Derpa derp."

8/23/2010 1:55:12 PM

Dear indy,

I am sorry that someone pissed in your corn flakes this morning.

Sincerely,
fodrizzle

8/23/2010 2:06:51 PM

In this thread, indy is mad.

suspect identified

8/23/2010 2:12:48 PM

indy is a grade a dumbass and, as usual, doesn't have a clue about anything he's talking about.

"relying on snitches"

Fucking general population and their concern for safety bunch of goddamn snitches need to get corrected.

Do you understand the difference between "accepting help from snitches" and "relying on snitches"?
Do you understand context? Can you read?
Because it really seems like you've presented a straw-man fallacy.
I never criticized snitching in and of itself, or even in general.
I criticized cops over-reliance on it, instead of other options like stings.

8/23/2010 3:13:17 PM

In this thread, indy shows cops how it's done.

8/23/2010 3:14:30 PM

Damn straight.
I've long advocated for private law enforcement.
I'd fix this place up in no time, and without violating anyone's rights. (Unlike public law enforcement.)

8/23/2010 3:19:40 PM

damn i used to run down kent as part of my little running circuit when i lived off gorman

8/23/2010 3:22:59 PM

indy you're a dumbass. go beat some rocks together.

8/23/2010 5:06:18 PM

indy is PISSED

I wonder how many violent crimes you yourself would have to commit to "fix this place up"

8/23/2010 5:10:03 PM

ITT, we are about to be treated to a law enforcement method by which all citizens will have complete freedom, yet due to effective policing no one will have the opportunity to harm another.

Get your popcorn ready, and get a bucket of oats for the unicorn.

Big shit poppin again off kent rd. Got the crime scene tape up and everything, following about 3 ambulances and a dozen cop cars

10/9/2010 6:11:14 PM

I heard about 5 gunshots last night in that area. back to back.

10/9/2010 6:14:26 PM

just sayin'

I wouldn't walk anywhere by myself in Raleigh at 2am. nor any other city. call a friend.

just sayin'

10/9/2010 6:19:22 PM

Dozens of squad cars, looks bad. Avoid kent rd.

10/9/2010 6:39:47 PM

welcome to da hood

10/9/2010 6:51:56 PM

people act like Kent and Kaplan are ghetto. I lived off of South Saunders for my last year of college, and we had crackheads walk up on our porch all the time.
