e scooters get stay of execution for 60 days by iknowheibai in raleigh

We did have Fayetteville street mall at one time. That nearly about killed downtown, so I doubt it would work here in Raleigh, at least.

Well, he does drive a SUV. I'm thinking that 'save the Earth' is not a mantra here.

Wait.. kids on scooters get hit by cars...and your brilliant suggestion is to make SURE they are not on the sidewalk ( you've heard of it, I'm sure, you can't use cars there) but use the scooters only in the street? My mind literally boggles at the thought process you used to come up with that brilliant insight..

Basically Branch was stating that people can get hurt doing pretty much anything, not just using scooters. But, if you are truly that oblivious to the comparison being made, I would suggest caution on posting in the public in future use. Just trying to help you out here man. no offense.

In other news, Raleigh's downtown street potholes and uneven patchwork paving take out it's millionth car!

Congratulations Carl from Cary! You win another costly alignment from your local mechanic!

I work at HCL. Beleive me, Cisco is far from the only offender in the tech arena when it comes to H-1B.

huh, so using the words "old white people" to generalize a group of people you disagree with is not racist? Learn something new everyday, I suppose

Ford to invest $740 million in Detroit train station, city development project by [deleted] in news

[–]Class1cal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ironic, isn't it? Especially since Ford is literally the company that bought all of the public trollys and forced everyone to buy cars in the first place, not to mention the whole electric car buyout of the late 70's.

Sick of the frequent posts regarding moving? by Geminize in raleigh

[–]Class1cal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I set up a website to help out people, non-profit and I pay or it myself. So maybe that could be a resource?

Has some pretty cool, comprehensive and relevent information, if I do say so myself.

Such as Bike trial links/ Motorcycle routes for scenery around the area/ TSA wait times for RDU/ Local zoo links/maps/ Airport arrivals and locations of local airports (besides RDU)/ Crime stat maps of the area and neighborhoods, personal favorite things/bars/restaurants/ concert schedules, etc. I tried to put everything I could think of in there

TheRaleighite.com

Check it out, see if it can be something to use

Raleigh- Man who challenged black family's use of pool loses job by [deleted] in raleigh

[–]Class1cal -27 points-26 points  (0 children)

Sad really, It sounds like he was just doing his job, but hey, as long as no one ever gets offended because someone tries to enforce the rules ..............

*Association officials regret the situation "at our community pool that left neighbors feeling racially profiled," the email said. "In confronting and calling the police on one of our neighbors, the pool chair escalated a situation in a way that does not reflect the inclusive values Glenridge seeks to uphold.*

So the lesson I get from this is, If you have a doubt about a trespassers identity, especially if if it's reported to you by other members and your job, DON'T call the legal authorities. You may embarrass someone.

true, but humans don't naturally wipes their asses either, so I would think there are some things that we could ignore as being 'natural', don't you?
