I need a no solicitation sign big time. I get everything from magazine salespeople to mormons and JW's. It's so annoying that I rarely answer my door for anyone. I even ignored my neighbor trying to tell me my headlights were on last week because 15 minutes prior some other asshole was pounding on the door.
Some guy left a note saying he wanted to buy my car for cash....the fuck...
Oh we get the cars for cash thing all the time out here! As for the no solicitation sign you might as well give up now. That does not stop them. I can't tell you how many times the doorbell rings and by the time I find my cane, get out of my chair, hobble to the front door, all the while telling the dog to shut up, open the door and they say something about religion. I point at the sign and they say they aren't 'selling' anything!
I occasionally ask why I would wish to discuss something as complex as theology with someone who could not understand the simple concept of solicitation? Seriously! I usually hobble away, closing the door while they are still talking. I am probably going to hell, save a seat for me guys.
We got a badass.
All sarcasm aside though, I doubt the Mezuzah would deter them any. I got one of those little invitations today as well and the guy was going on about the Jews being god's chosen people and how fond he was of them.
They look at it as we look at a Scrabble triple word score or a Yahtzee (sorry best analogy I could do here I am gaming impaired).
fa fuck whats with the 80s haircut, jesus did NOT look like that holy when jehovias come to my door once ,i just told them the truth and they havent been back since
Seems like they dont like it when the house belongs to lesbians LOL
Ok I'll give it a try
LOL that has been on my list a long time, bout time I get around to it
We had some evangelists come to the door a few years ago. My wife answered and and pointed to our No Soliciting sign on the door and told them we were not interested. They immediately responded with, "The word of our lord and savior is not soliciting". All they got was the door slammed in their face. We still get some door to door salesman every once in a while who can't seem to read or figure out what soliciting is.
YOU and me! This is getting scary.
You bring up something that reminded me of a picture I'd seen on the web:
Who still breach's doors with a boot? Paintballers?
Have you ever tried to breach a door with a boot, or your body or even your butt (what I finally resorted to)? I swear to god you bounce off so bad you hit the opposite wall. My understanding is the tool among the modern breachers is this:
I to had a run in with jw I don't like to be rude to them or anyone who knocks my door but my daughter is a nurse and had witnessed a young jw girl who had just given birth to twins bleed to death because her family and husband would not allow them to give her blood. She was very upset and I couldn't stop thinking about it,then they knock on my door it was near Christmas time and it was an elderly lady standing their she began to preach to me when I pointed out I wasn't interested, she asked me why I told her that I didn't agree with some of their beliefs, she asked me to explain why and was it because they didn't celebrate Christmas. I told her that I didn't agree with a young mother being left to die because of their belief not to except blood. She then said that blood was precious and given to us by god, I told her life was also precious and that mine had been saved by someone else's precious blood. She looked quite shocked and walked away wishing me a good day. She certainly wasn't going to disagree with me.
You know I've re-written this response a dozen times. I just can't write it.
Next time answer the door naked, with your dick in your hands, and say you're beating the devil out of yourself and for them to come in and help. I imagine they'll find someone else to save pretty quick.
Careful neo you may get charged with a terrorist threat there LOL.

Saying your "Disfellowshipped" scares the newbies but not the veterans.
Real JWs have studied all religions and come.from all backgrounds so they can truthfully speak to everyone.about.anything.
.........snip...........
Now that is interesting. I'd like to hear more about the veterans take on proselytizing to the dis-fellowshipped.
I did call the local Kingdom Hall for my neighborhood and request they not send their outreach by because it can be hard to get to the door. They haven't been around since. So that's another option. We also have a Baptist church that is quite persistent. I called them too. They come around about every other year and leave a tract so I call and re-subscribe to their opt-out list LOL.
