[quote=Anonymous]You made eye contact. I don’t. I live in an area with a lot of panhandlers, political petition signature collectors, scam charity workers, and missionaries. I walk defensively. Just as I drive, I’m looking a fair bit ahead of me and to either side so I can spot and evade potential trouble spots. When I see a group has set up shop with their placards on the sidewalk, I switch sides of the street. If I can’t switch, I speed up considerably and put an unfriendly expression on my face. This eliminates all but the most bold. For them, when they approach, I don’t make eye contact, but I say brusquely “Sorry!” and I don’t break stride as I pass them. If they try to follow me, I hold up my hand and increase my speed while stating loudly, “Not interested!” This sounds rude, but do is any solicitation —religious or not— that is unwanted.[/quote]
