Ok I sure everyone gets people knoking on their door trying to sell stuff or give you a piece of paper saying the wrold is going to end. How do you deal with them? I told the last guy that I had to time to talk because and angry mob of lamas where going to invade my house and I needed to prepare. He looked at me like I was crazy but he aint coming back.

Sometimes that can be dangerous. I've heard that robbers will knock on your door to see if you're home, and if nobody answers, they will break in. But if you do answer, they'll put on some act and pretend they are with some fake charity.
Of course not everybody who knocks on your door is a robber, but yeah. . .

I just had one of those today, except i was in my front yard mowing the lawn so couldn't pretend I'm not home. They asked for my Dad who just happened to be coming outside and he just told him go away before the guy could say anything. What i should have done is lay down on the ground and pretend i wasn't there.

That's debatable. They could be taking your money for some pointless charity that doesn't benefit people. I consider that robbery.

Lol, and you were watching a football game, and the dude just sits down with you and starts watching. XD

I just thought of something funny to say when they ask for a parent. In response you say:
Yeah one second, my dad is just cleaning his shotgun.

Post a "No soliciting" sign somewhere near your door. They won't even knock.

If they come back just say you gave them what they really want and told them to scram, so why are they still here? Then you pelt them with coins XD.

I don't bother to do that. Just don't even look. Ignore and they will leave.
