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.





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



Google is your friend. My lawyer friend is a Democratic Socialist but
he's not as far left as the current crop that are emerging from schools
today. He's about your age.

He and I have often had very civil and respectful discussions about
politics and he knows well that I am not a "Trumpster". I just happen
to believe in capitalism as a primary economic system in the USA and
I support many of the efforts that Trump and Republicans in general
are attempting to correct due to the overly left influences of the last
administration.

I don't approve (not that it matters what I think) or agree with his
big, egotistical mouth and I think it hurts him in achieving his goals
but that's a personality thing, not a political ideological issue.


Is that last paragraph referring to Harry?

The big deal is the asshole was tresspassing and trying to jam his
** beliefs down peoples throats. You probably would have shot
** 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?** Now he says he doesn't often get
canvassers "of any stripe".

Dishonesty raises it's ugly head again.* 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.


You constantly whine about religion being crammed down your throat. It doesn't happen here, and now
you tell us it doesn't happen there.

So why all the whining?

That more aptly describes Trump, his family, and his appointees.

Oh, special deals on condos, isolation phone booths, promotion and hotel
rentals at Trump hotel in DC, promotion of Mar-a-Lago, overseas

The Nazis love Trump and they are socialists.

This problem might not be as simple as you think.

I don't take the modern Nazi political party seriously about anything.
Bunch of really messed up minds.

My objection to my "visitor" wasn't really about socialism. I don't
subscribe to it's ideology as it applies to the USA but I respect that
it works elsewhere.

My comment to him was specifically about *him* and his intrusion of
my privacy in my home to promote his political beliefs. I'd likely do
the same thing to a representative of the Democratic or Republican party.

I am not a big fan of corporate welfare. I will say everyone in these
targeted businesses get them tho and they always pass congress with
wide bipartisan support. I do think Trump should be comping the
government the use of his resorts when he is visiting. He certainly
should not be recovering more than the actual cost.
I said from day one that hotel in DC was troubling. The beef I have
always agreed with was the conflicts of interest.
It is the problem you have when you put a person with businesses into
the White House but it is not a new problem. George Washington had
serious conflicts of interest. It is quite possible that Washington
walked away from the presidency because his business had advanced to
the point that these conflicts may have become troubling to his
critics.

Ringing the bell is not trespassing; forcing your way in is.

For those as dumb as Fat Harry, forcing your way in is breaking

To repeat the question, why does Fat Harry keep a shotgun by the
front door?
