    Dodged a bullet

    Man so there I go outside to go walk my dogs and as I walk back into my neighborhood and sucks because my first house is on the left they walk to me and start introducing themselves and next ask me what and how I feel about god and start walking with me.

    Dang so I say hey guys I use to be up for talking to you guys but last time I talked to you guys you in your white t-shirts started showing up at my house at like 7-9pm right when I want to sit down and eat and also you guys just keep coming on and on with the Mormon ideology.

    All this is while they are walking with me talking to me as I pass my house and keep on walking by. I know If I tell them to F off they put me on like a CAN YOU TURN THIS GUY LIST and they start showing up more. I was in luck because this pair of Mormons in the white t-shirt on a bike seemed to be like ok that's cool but where is your house and we can come chat during the day.

    That is when I just said I live mile down the road and I just out walking my dogs but have a good day to the both of you

    I hate when people like that show up to your home and when you're about to say No Thanks have a nice day and are about to close the door they block you from doing it with their foot. I wish i could have a shotgun for protection in my home so i could blast them away when they do that. anyway i tell them with an angry look in my eyes, remove your foot before i remove it from your body and they almost instantly run away. try that one if it happens or when you're out with your dogs say i will let my dogs loose on you if you don't leave me alone.

    In the apartment block i live in now doesn't allow begging,selling stuff or people showing up with religous propaganda, which is good because i had a lot of problems with that when i lived in Stockholm.

    it would help if my dogs were big and vicious enough to pull that off. Next time and I know just a matter of time till they hunt me down at my house I think I will go with your approach

    There is an easy way to discourage them. Ask if they can come talk to you when your BF is at home to listen too, or in my case my GF. You will find they mysteriously never do manage to find the time for you.

    Hey U, we don't have a problem with Mormons as much as Jehovah's Witness group. I usually take out my copy of the Quran and ask them to show me the proper scripture texts to what they are saying. I have done a lot of religious studies and so I have a copy around just for this reason. I am a Christian but never have i understood going from door to door and person to person like it is a competition to win or condemn. Forcing religious views on people? That is not what true Christianity is about.
    I actually agree with Tamsin and her awesome tip and will use this approach when/if they do come around. I love shock value a lot.

    I was out walking my dogs. I had taken a break from Defiance and took them out so I had BBQ on my face from my wings I had just ate. Somewhat hungover from the previous night. As I recall I just got done with a 4+ or 5+hr sit down of Defiance. I have a water bottle in 1 hand and dog leashes in other hand with a crap bag.

    I had sandals with sunglasses on and in shorts with a tank-top and was hit by them totally off guard like 15 or so feet from my house

    I don't know who exactly they are but there are young guys in white shirts, dress pants - always strikingly orderly dressed - walking in pairs even in my country. They are foreigners, english speaking trying to speak in russian that sounds more like chinese and they are stupid (at least the ones I overheard in the bus this summer - confused and dumb. They seemed to think they actually are in Russia). They always try to speak with elder people, alcoholics and bums (my guess they hope those are too exhausted to try and beat them) which is good because I look like a young alcoholic and they leave me be. Anyway the funiest moment with these guys was when I saw the same old fart shouting at the same 2 dudes 3 times in a week exactly at the same bus stop.

    I tell them I am a true Heathen, and that to me the Holy Trinity is Sun, Earth, Water; not God, Jesus, Joseph Smith.

    If they keep trying, I speak to them in Sioux.

    And when they leave go learn how to speak Sioux and come back and talk to you?
