Cold Doors 2020 - Discussion Thread

.....when you door knock people who have those video doorbells....then less than 3 min later they pull up out of nowhere

I've adjusted my door knock strategy for those people with video doorbells and only ring/knock on them once because I'm realizing they can talk on those from their cell phone and if they don't answer the door or their video doorbell then they're completely ignoring so a waste of time to knock more than once on those.
 
I was thinking the same about y'all lol .... mid 70's?

Getting close. That was why I was asking. Real life experiences are different.

I am and probably have always been a 'suck it up buttercup' kinda guy. I have been 100% on my own since about age 17. I have been 100% piece work, net or Commission most of my adult life. Not counting the military. I produce, we eat, I don't produce, we don't eat. I fvck up, I own it. Hell, if my kids fvcked up I owned it. So I am a little crusty. Or maybe leather gloves would be a better analogy. There is calf skin which is supple and soft, however, let that calf grow and live through a few winters and you get bull hide, Not as supple or soft.

You ran a stop sign. You got a ticket. You will pay it. You probably will need a cop one day for something less than a murder or rape. He or she will help you instead of solving a murder or rape.

Not a big deal. Not something that you should get mentally distracted about.

Hit those doors and you can make twice the amount of that ticket today.

I've encountered helpful police officers.

I just didn't like that one.

I have definitely run into those myself. A lot more when I was young. When and Where I grew up they got away with a lot.

I am older and carry myself differently today so that may be a factor. Demeanor can go both way. I tend to mirror a lot. Probably from years in this business. However, they have the badge and gun.

Even if you didn't like him, it still doesn't excuse your blowing a stop sign. I must confess I am not the best of drivers and I have received my share of tickets.. especially for speeding. But I earned them all. The one that irked me most was a few years ago, on a winding GA road.. It had just begun to rain and I went into a curve too hot... Spun out, hit the ditch, flipped the car end over end a couple of times and ended up upside down in the middle of a pasture. Crawled out of the car and the neighbors came over to help.. Had several head lacerations, pouring blood and thought my leg was broken (wasn't) State Patrol shows up and starts writing a ticket without even talking with me. I said, "surely you aren't writing me a ticket. I wasn't doing but about 40." He looks at the car and replies, "As far out in the filed as that car is, I think you were doing more than that but I am not writing you a speeding ticket. I am writing you a ticket for driving too fast for road conditions" The car is upside down in the middle of the field so how can I argue with that? But at the time, standing in the rain, bleeding and in pain, I thought I had been punished enough. :yes: He didn't agree... cost me $175.00. :sad:
 
I wasn't speeding though!!

So him barreling through a neighborhood at 55mph to pull me over was just as reckless as the person he was ticketing.

I can guarantee this was some weirdo overzealous cop relegated to "light duty"

Whatever though I'm not trying to keep thinking about this m-f*cker
Since you ran the red light/stop sign, maybe the cop had reason to pull you over because since YOU BLEW THE STOP SIGN!!! How did he know you weren't high on meth, crack, etc.?

A couple of days ago I was stopped at a stop light. The light turned green and before I pulled into the intersection, a garbage truck blew through a red light at 60 MPH. Didn't even think about slowing down. I have no doubt that if I hadnt been driving defensively, the assh*ole would've killed me and I wouldn't be here reading your nonsense. :no:
