Oh I see...so Rude behaviour justifies rude behaviour against it.
And what if it is necessary. How often does that happen anyways...once a year?
Never at my house, if someone comes over they usually let us know ahead of time. If someone comes over and we don't know about it ahead of time then every single time it's been someone trying to sell us crap we're not interested in.

Im all for telling people before you are going to their home - but I would never just sit there while someone is knocking on my door.
My manners are above that - if they have none to bother me while I am eating, I will still open the door.
Differing manners - many things in England which are considered rude wouldnt be so in America...or so my experience is.

Well depending on where you live (I guess) you can have people who solicit, Jehovah's Witnesses, Crusade For Children Money Collectors, People saying they kicked their ball in your backyard and asking to get it.
Every thing on that list I've seen at least twice in my lifetime. Lol.
People actually come to your door when they kick a toy in your yard? Here they just jump the fence and get it themselves.

Okay we were sitting down eating dinner and this guy knocked at our front door, well we have a recliner in front of the door first of all, and second of all we use our back door for everything. We didn't know who it was and we were sitting down eating dinner so we just waited until he went away.
When we were done eating dinner I stood up and went to the kitchen window I looked out to the garden in the backyard and saw what I thought was a Bike. It looked just like a bike (from that far away), it was orange, had a visible wheel and handle bars. I see two guys behind the fence around the perimeter of the house and I go outside and see what's up. I said "Is that bike yours?" He laughed and said "That isnt a bike, that's a measuring wheel, we have a busted cable in the area and we're looking around trying to find it." I felt sooo retarded so I just said "Well, Okay."
That's todays second story. 🙄
Wow

Most do, some don't. But what I find quite rude is in the middle of the night they'll be walking behind the fence to get to the store across the street from my house and they decide that they'll climb the fence and take a shortcut right into the yard and take it that way.
Yes that#S not very good behaviour either.

Bardock< Of course it isn't. Some of these parents let their teenagers roam the streets at 8 and 9 o'clock at night. Some will stop in the section of trees on the other side of my house between the Church and will light up some reefer. That's just whack.
