I probably wouldn't have answered the door for either. When folks knock on our door and we are not interested I simply politely say it from the other side of the door. "In the middle of dinner, not interested, good luck...." or the old "I would open it, but I can trust my dog, sorry"... I guess I would have answered for the LEO.bmwrdr wrote: At this point I answered with a clear “no” and pointed him to the "No Soliciting" sign right under my doorbell. At this point he started cursing and tried to come up with some arguments which caused me to tell him to leave now or I call Police.
Glad no one was hurt and that you were home to prevent whatever he was about to do!
