I live in an apartment complex in GA that is unfortunately very accessible to all sorts who are plying various door2door trades. The other day, I came across a new one. Got a knock on the door in the early evening. I wasn't to concerned as I had borrowed something from a friend earlier that day and thought he might be coming by to get it back. It took me a few seconds to get there as I was seeing a man about a horse at the time. Anyway, I pull my trousers up and holster my P2000SK. I look out the hole and see no one, so I open the door slowly. I see 2 late teens males chatting with one of the neighbors. As they approach me I casually put my hand down on the weapon while staying turned away such that they won't see it. One of them goes into this pitch about being involved in some "public speaking" contest that they need to collect points for to go on some trip. I looked at the brochure he had, and several magazines were listed on the back. I think this was one of those magazine selling deals, but I'm not positive. I was curious if anyone else had run across this before. Are these things legit or are they part of some criminal scheme? Anyway, I'm not about to let a couple of univited strangers into my place. Read about the Dartmouth Professor murders. Case of two teen males who gained access to their victims house with a bogus story about a school project. Therefore, I'm very suspcious of people who show up at my door without a clear story.
