Default A knock on the door ....

Saw some news this morning about the growing membership in 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. 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. 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. Later, I heard that the police had stopped him
after receiving several complaints by others about him harassing people
in the neighborhood.



The Nazis love Trump and they are socialists.

This problem might not be as simple as you think.
