Solicitor repellant
This type thing is easy out here. Several years ago, a couple was running a scam where they'd come by in a van, the woman would get out with some laundry detergent items, knock on the door and ask to see the lady of the house, that she had some new products she wanted to showcase. This first happened in a nearby city, Warner Robins and then made it's way to Jones County......of all places. Of course what they were doing was casing the place and looking at vehicles so they could come back later when people weren't home and rob the place. Now, we live 500 feet off the road in the woods. In the spring and summer, you just about cain't see the place from the road.
But you guessed it, they pulled down my driveway. Now I ain't a paranoid sort, but out here, you don't know what kinda wild animals you might walk out on so I keep my 1940s JC Higgins 12ga double barrel coach gun handy. With 00 buck. I let her get all the way to the door with her bullshit and opened the door with the Higgins leveled at her face. .....all this while Kitty was on 911 with the Jones County Sheriff's department. Now I wasn't gonna hold um here, because I didn't know who had what in that van so I told her to get the hell of my property and she ran so fast back to that van I think she set some records. I stood there on the front porch with the gun leveled right at the driver until he was down the driveway. By that time, we heard the sirens and it was all over right in front of the house. LOL One of the responding backup deputies was a friend of mine who came up the driveway, got out of his car red as a beet he was laughing so hard. He said they told him "some crazy man pulled a shotgun on them". He said he told them "Welcome to Jones County". LOL
