I generally presume they are going to tell me about their religion. People who sell door to door for other things are usually alone.
-
...government officials?
-
Here comes trouble and I don't answer.
-
be careful
-
Unless my boyfriend is home, I never answer the door when strangers knock. I am a wimp and immediately become scared.
-
"Damnit I hate answering the door. I do not like to be bothered". People I know know to call me before they come, except for KeyshaJ who has a key. I usually do not bother myself with answering the door unless I know the landlord is working in the building. If it is the landlord and I do not answer the door, he knows to call on his cellular and tell me it is him. Then I go let him in. If they are persistent enough to annoy me into answering the door and it is not something important, I can be a bit cold. I am polite when I tell them that I do not like being disturbed, but it is an icy politeness. Now, once a neighbor's house had caught fire and she banged on the door at about 3 am asking for help. I brought her in, sat her down, called 911, and stayed up with her until the firemen got there and made sure she had somewhere to stay.
-
Lock & load and get ready for the door to kick in. More than likely they are Jehovah's witnesses. I could smell the obnoxious perfume through the door.
-
It happens frequently. They are usually riding bicycles. They're dressed in white dress shirts, black pants, and black ties. They are Jehovahs Witnesses. My immediate thoughts are they are here to witness. They always seem sincere and are very polite. I listen to them and thank them for the current copy of the "Watchtower". Other circumstances would be that they are here to promote their lawn care service or maybe their house keeping. In general, I'm not wary. However, I always look out the peephole and only crack the door. I have pepper spray in the front entry bureau. Even the kindest face could be a threat to me and my family. Times have changed, and they will continue to change.

GO THE F*** AWAY!!!
-
"The witnesses are here, not again"
-
Get out the back way, the Police are here again. ;-)
-
Shotgun!!
-
I think it better be good if I have to stop what I'm doing .
-
A) They're selling something. B) Cops - - (((hide the stash))) C) They're selling something.
-
"I wonder who's at the door" lol : P I live in a pretty good neighbourhood, so I've never been scared of nasty people coming to the door... (Besides, my house is full of weapons >: D )
-
What do they want?
-
I hate to admit it but my first thought would be Jehovahs Witnesses...and I am usually right. I know they are only doing what they feel is required by their beliefs and I never treat them rudely. I simply explain that I have a denomination and am happy with it. They have always been nice, offered their tracts, (which I always accept and usually read) and went on their way.
-
I've been caught. Time to flee to Tuscany.
-
My thoughts are "i bet they dont know I have a loaded gun in my other hand" ;) but then again, i may be a federal agent lol.
-
that they may be robbers or executive...
-
2 mad people from AB.
-
In my experience when they look as Retroglide describes, they are usually Mormon missionaries! Since I went to High School in Utah, I politely inform them that I know whereof they speak, thank them for caring, and go back to answerbag. . . I am strong in my faith (ordained as both a deacon and an elder), which is not theirs.
-
Jehovah witnesses or Mormons.. I usually don't answer it.
-
Ohhh great its the jehovah witnesses again..this should be fun..:)
-
Too poke em in the eyes 3 stooges style. nuc nuc nuc.
-
Oh god dammit, more Jehovah's Witnesses!
-
Are you familiar with the reorganites? I am not one of those, either. HOwever, I am sincerely happy for you if you are comfortable in your faith.
-
Unless theyre in police uniform, either jehovas or mormons, we get lots of them round our way!
-
Decide whether or not I'm home.
-
I think they are going to try to sell me something, or it's the police with bad news. The worst thought is that i have forgotten that i have invited people over for dinner and i haven't cleaned or cooked.
-
Someone trying to sell something that I don't want to buy for their gain.
-
That they must not be able to read English. I have a "No Soliciting" sign on the door.
-
Alert the dogs, hit the lights and grab the gun. Strangers don't just wander to my door and friends don't knock.
-
Who's this?
-
don't make a sound!
-
Jehovah Witnesses , thats really the only ones that come door to door
-
i always look through the window first anyway. but if it was someone i didnt know then i would think it was someone trying to sell something. if im on my own i open the window and ask them want they want. i feel safer that way.
-
It's the cops.
-
Like giviturall, I don't normally get random strangers knocking. Friends know to come in the back way. I am not interested in door-to-door solicitations, so I simply don't answer it. Just because someone knocks on my door, does not mean I have to answer.
-
i live on a state highway so, its that a car broke down or something
-
I'm not buying it nor do I want to hear about it! I leave people alone I wish they'd leave me alone to when I'm at home. My place, my space!
-
Are they Jehovah Witnesses?
-
Wow. I can't believe the dancers got here this fast!
-

-
They must be the sales agent. (--,)
-
I am shocked that other J.W.'s don't know where I live.
-
I would think the cops found the stash! or the bodies! or the dungeon! or the mattresses with the tags torn off!
-
That they are solicitors coming to bug me and that I'm not going to answer the door at all :)
-
If it is a day-time, not much of worry, BUT in the night, I would call our house guard.
-
I peek through the window to see if they are wearing suits, ties, backpacks, helmets, and name tages that say they are from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. If so, I let them in, and my family feeds them. If not, I'll answer to see who it is anyways. But as soon as they throw a sales pitch at me, the door is closed... rather loudly I might add... And friends know to call before they come over!
-
"Aw Crap! What have I done now?"
-
well its always Jehovahs Witnesses the same 2 poeple come to our house every week and we tell the same thing"we have a church so plz stop coming" well i was home alone and i was bored when 2 Jehovas Witnesses came by so i opened the door and was like "OMG YOU CANT BE HERE, STRANGER DANGER, STRANGER DANGER!!!!" and slammed the door on them... i was laughing my ass off!! the stranger danger was from a little kid safety thing we learned at school LOL

-

-
The Wii guys coming over to bring me a new game system!

Whoever it is, I don't want any. If I want something, it's usually coming from an individual person - meter readers, mail delivery, etc all come alone.
