		<description>That&#039;s really sad. People approaching your door are simply doing their job. There are so many people who would rather receive government aid than knock on your door. So go ahead, keep getting them arrested, but don&#039;t complain when your taxes go up or they apply for public healthcare! I&#039;ve never had a problem answering the door for someone who knocks. If I don&#039;t want it, I let them know, and then wish them good luck! Some of you people are too uptight.</description>

		<description>This is a great sign.  Just last week posted my front door, to try and keep the political zealots away.  You may add that group to the list too!</description>

		<description>Great idea!  Just this weekend I had to post one on my house.  It simply says &quot;No solicitation!  We do NOT want your steaks, eggs, etc.&quot;  Steak salesmen were stalking us up to 3 times a month!!  Now I need one for the driveway that says, &quot;Just because I have a driveway full of cool, classic cars does NOT mean they are for sale.  Now scram!&quot;  (We have 7 old cars and people constantly stop to say, &quot;Uhh, which one is for sale?&quot;)</description>

		<description>Great sign.  I have a sign posted for the religious types who come by frequently that says &quot;God and I have a perfectly good relationship and boy would he or she be pissed if he or she thought you were trying to change it.&quot;  It seems to work.</description>

		<description>I love this sign! Am trying to convince my boyfriend to let us put it on the door. We get a lot of very questionable people knocking on our door. However, my boyfriend said instead of this he could just go to the gun range, shoot the hell out of a target (lots of head shots), bring the target home and then tape it inside of the glass door. Maybe that will keep people off our porch!!!</description>

		<description>I absolutely LOVE the no soliciting sign above! Two weeks ago an AT&amp;T &quot;rep&quot; rang the doorbell repeatedly. My now ex-fiance answered the door, and told him he worked nights. The guy came back the next day, at the same time, and must have kept his finger on the doorbell, because it wouldn&#039;t stop ringing. I happened to be home with my VERY sick cat-kid. I greeted Mr. AT&amp;T rep, told him once again to NOT come to my house again, and that he&#039;d once again woke Tom up. He replied, &quot;Fine, I&#039;ll come by later tonight then.&quot; I started yelling at him. I will be making a nice plaque out of the above, and want to thank the poster for sharing it! THANK YOU!</description>

		<description>I put up the following note on my door after my &quot;No Soliciting&quot; sign went unnoticed:

Please Ring Bell!  But....
If you are a solicitor - meaning selling, offering services, looking for donations or religious groups, DON&#039;T BOTHER!  I have already bought, done it myself, donated, converted!

Have not had a single solicitor since.</description>

		<description>Why would anyone want to alienate people who have No Soliciting signs posted??  It seems counter-productive to me.</description>

		<description>Thank you so much for this.  I have been going nuts with the solicitors.  The one that pushed me over the top was the gal that was mad at me when I told her I was closing the door because I was not interested and she told me I was rude!  My sign went up the next day.  But I like the tone of this one and have been looking for something witty!

I will add something for the church people who are not &quot;soliciting&quot;. Yeah, they ignored the sign!</description>

		<description>alocal said:

&quot;you guys need to realises that when someone puts a “no soliciting” sign on your door,it does not mean we don’t have a right to knock on the door. it means nothing legally. so stop complaining and simply don’t answer the door. calling the cops, go ahead, 90% of door knockers have a permit for this. the cops will go away since the city they work for just gave them a permit to knock on doors for their town.&quot;

OH how wrong you are!!  It is called TRESPASSING and it is illegal!!  Your permit does NOT trump and/or give you the legal right to trespass on my property where a &quot;no solicitors&quot; sign in posted.

How do I know this?  Because I charged 2 solicitors with trespassing -- AND IT STUCK!  And they had permits.

Nice try &quot;alocal&quot;, but you are &quot;awrong.&quot;</description>

		<description>THANK YOU so much for this sign. We received another visit from the friendly assholes at 7 a.m. wanting to know if anyone in our apt spoke Spanish, or if any neighbors did. Adding a line in for yet another fav of mine: I do not want to find god unless he/she/it is playing hide and seek. Printing this up and passing it around. THANK YOU</description>
