However, police officials said that while the view may not be pleasant, the man isn't breaking any laws.
Neighbors told WBTV that the unidentified man has stood naked at his front door several times a week for the last 10 years. The last time was on Friday.
“I was out rolling the trash can on Friday and I just happened to look over there and he was standing there buck naked,” neighbor Pecolia Threatt told the station.
Adrienna Harris, who wants the man arrested, told WBTV said her daughter won't leave the house if her naked neighbor is dangling in the doorway.
Neighbors estimate they've called the police 30 times since 2005, but police officials tell Time Warner Cable News that there's nothing they can do since the man is naked inside his own home.
It's possible that the naked neighbor could be charged with indecent exposure, but North Carolina law says he'd have to "willfully expose the private parts of his or her person in any public place and in the presence of any other person or persons."
The annoyed neighbors took a picture of the man standing at his door in all his gloryon Friday. They plan to use the pics to get the neighborhood's Homeowners Association to file some type of nuisance complaint against the naked neighbor, according to the Charlotte Observer.

Lesson learned in February: I don't have to keep up, I just have to keep moving!
This was just on the morning news. This guy has been doing this for 10 years or so. No law broken? Then campaign for a new law that makes it illegal. don't keep calling him and don't take a picture of him!

He knows he can expose himself in the doorway and not break a law. If he steps out he will probably break a law. What he is doing in no different from the flasher at the park. He's simlpy found a way to do it and not break the law.
Ok so what can the neighbors do?
A really good fence would help. And then completely ignore him. He is getting off on the attention. Stop feeding his ego.

And, now that they have drawn national attention to it, it is going to make their home much harder to sell if they decide they have had enough and want to move.
People are so nosy! Multiple phone calls sounds like harassment.
They have called 30 times in 10 years. That's once every 4 months. Not exactly harrassment. Especially if it's a different neighbor each time. If he has 3 neighbors close to him, they each are calling once a year. That isn't excessive to me.
He gets off on it clearly. Ignore him.

What would you be teaching? Just curious. Not trying to be snarky. What's the lesson? Private property rights?" - Mellow Momma

One lesson could simply be "Sometimes there are things out there in the world that we should just ignore. His displaying of himself is one of those things. It hurts no one for him to be there like that, but we don't want to see it. The best option for us is to not look, or if we must look in that general direction to not notice or care."

I could agree with that. Well said!

I had neighbors that walked around naked. The whole family. The parents were my age and they had four young adults living there too. Strange. They didn't close curtains. We just learned not to look that way.

Exactly.
There are going to be unpleasant things in the world that can't be avoided. People have to learn to deal with them.

I can explain it to you, but I can't understand it for you.
I think in general people are too uptight about nudity. I'd much rather my kid see some naked bits than violence.
I agree.
It just seems that some of the people here who would NEVER let their kid watch a movie with full frontal nudity are ok with the neighborhood creeper letting it hang out. Seems kind of odd to me.

But one is within my control - the other isn't.
