Saw some news this morning about the growing membership inÂ* the
"Democratic Socialists of America".

Seems the majority of young people today favor their form of
socialism
over capitalism, influenced mostly by liberal professors and
instructors
in our universities and colleges.

This news story was timely and ironic because:

Yesterday (Sunday) a guy wearing a suit knocked on my door.Â* My
first
thought was he may be proselytizing for some religious order,
something
I have not experienced since 1970 while living in Zion, Il.

Prepared to politely but firmly tell him I was not interested,
he handed
me a flyer and announced he represented the Democratic
Socialists of
America and was handing out information on the organization and
what
they believe in.

Less friendly, I told him I wasn't interested, goodbye ... but he
insisted on having me hear him out.

Told him again I was not interested.

He then said, "You must be a Trump supporter".

Blew my cork.Â* Told him to shove his socialism up his ass and
get the
**** off my property.

Then, later in the day I saw a town cop had pulled him over not far
from where we live.Â* Later, I heard that theÂ* police had stopped
him
after receiving several complaints by others about him harassing
people
in the neighborhood.





He called you out for what you are...a Trump supporter. What's
the big
deal?
BTW, what do "Democratic Socialists" believe in?Â*

The big deal is the asshole was tresspassing and trying to jam his
Â*Â* beliefs down peoples throats. You probably would have shot
Â*Â* him.


No, ****-for-brains, I don't consider people, even religious
charlatans,
who knock on the door or ring the doorbell as "trespassers." Our
street,
even out to the state road, doesn't have many houses, and we don't
often
get canvassers of any stripe.

It's mostly the rural mail delivery folks who ring the doorbell. If
they
have a parcel too big for the community mail box kiosk down the
street,
they leave it on the front porch and ring the doorbell.

I suspect you don't get much of that, eh, what with the "Quarantined"
sign poked into your front lawn. No one wants your airborne herpes.



Why tbe shotgun behind your front door then?


And the regular complaints of proselytizing by people trying to jam
religion down his throat?Â*Â* Now he says he doesn't often get
canvassers "of any stripe".

Dishonesty raises it's ugly head again.Â* Must be a
progressive-liberal thing.



I never claimed we got a lot of door knockers, and it's been a while
since we had any religious nuts recruiting, though I did see a pair on
bicycles and wearing white shirts and ties a few weeks ago ringing
doorbells. I assumed they were Mormons. You should consider stopping
your channeling of Justan, your moron buddy.



I am loyal to my friends and he's a friend.Â* Sorry.



Yeah, I'm loyal to my friends, too.
