Ive had two people ring the doorbell in the past twenty four hours. I dont even go to the door unless Im expecting somebody, but these constant intrusions are really pissing me off.

Both were people with clipboards and satchels of papers.

Your first mistake was expecting people to understand what "soliciting" means.

..Or to know how to read in the first place.

Yeah. As for reading, they're probably Trump supporters.

those people are probably just anti-government folks and refuse to allow their freedoms to be restricted by the tyrannical powers that be. you should be praising them

Maybe they thought your sign was just a protest against prostitutes running the streets?

What if they aren't there to solicit? Maybe they're trying to repossess something or serve you a court summons or something.

that isn't soliciting, purely business.
they only have 5 seconds to identify themselves before the door gets shut.

You need a sign which says

WARNING - NO SOLICITATION
VIOLATORS WILL BE SHOT
SURVIVORS WILL BE SHOT AGAIN

The only sign I could find in town was silver with black writing. Maybe I can order a bright red sticker, but Im surprised the city hasnt complained about it.

I may look for one that you drive into the ground with a small post. One of these days, Im going to walk outside and just point to the sign and close the door.

I should have mentioned that in my home state, home invasions are very common, and this always makes me think that somebody is coming to scope my house out (even though I have $300 and a broken ps3).

I just dont understand why companies feel the need to harass and bother people. They force advertisements on the internet and on television and the radio. These people literally decided that they need to ring our doorbells and bother us in our own homes. Just leave me alone unless I request you.

Edit: also, its not like it just happened one time. Its been going on and these past two really made me nervous and pissed off.

Does anybody notice how religious solicitors dont think the sign applies to them? The sign means, dont knock on my door or ring my bell unless youre expected to be here.

Halloween is the absolute worst where I live because marijuana is legal and thats outdoor harvest time. People will destroy personal property to steal tens of thousands of dollars worth of somebodys legal medicine.

I love stories about when those people get... caught.
