If you’re not expecting anyone, do you answer the door when someone knocks?

If you have my number, you should have texted me at least a few minutes earlier. If you couldn't be bothered to do then, I can't be bothered to open the door. If you don't have my number, you're a stranger or solicitor and... No.

I'd only open it if you were on fire, or an obvious, serious emergency, or the cops.


Don't open for the cops unless they have a warrant.

Cool story bro.


Fine. It's your dog, not mine.

You’d have to open the door to see the warrant, you moron. You’re probably the idiot who’s complain that the cops broke down his door because he wouldn’t open it and they had a warrant.

Your tin-foil hat is on crooked.


Go back to the political forum with your random personal insults. Not opening the door for police unless they have a warrant is solid advice.

So weird, my husband is a longtime cop who has served hundreds of warrants and *gasp-* HAS NEVER SHOT A DOG! In fact, he loves them! WHO KNEW POLICE HAD SOULS


Ok. That's great. You married well. All cops aren't bad. I'm still not opening the door.

omg guys, pp here who said i'd only open the door if the person was on fire or the cops. chill out, people, and stop descending into madness. I am an ethnic person who definitely has some criticism of how police conduct themselves sometimes, but I'd still open the door. If all my jaywalking caught up to me, have at me bros.

Right?? Years ago when I was living in an apartment, my neighbors were big drug dealers. When the police finally raided them, they announced they had a warrant and knocked one or two times before ramming the door open. If they have a warrant, they're coming in.

I guess those stories of homeowners dogs getting shot the minute cops enter are all fake news then, because your husband *gasp* HAS NEVER SHOT A DOG!

I am a SAHM and live in a very friendly/neighborly neighborhood. So yes, I always peek who it is and answer if I know them. I never answer to strangers unless I am expecting them (like a service provider.)

My neighbors pop over often during the day just to say hi or share a cup of coffee. My next door neighbor brought over cookies about two hours ago. Of course I answer the door. Damn. Where do you people live where you are afraid to answer the door?

No way. Why would I?

I’d have to stop what I’m doing, put on pants, and then deal with some annoying person. No thanks.

We have this thing called a life.

You’re either 80 years old living in some community or you live in the most annoying neighborhood in the world.

I open a window, see who it is, then decide.

I always answer unless I'm in the bathroom or something. Usually, it is one of the following: mail/fed ex/ups delivery, neighborhood kids looking for my kids, guy who mows our lawn. I don't think we get more than 1-2 door-to-door people a year and when we do, I just politely but quickly tell them we're not interested.
