There has been much discussion about the federal funding of ACORN and the federal funding it receives and will receive despite being indicted in multiple states for voter fraud. Many comments have been posted as how to best handle ACORN when they come to our doors. I'll offer my two cents worth.
I have printed out a list of the indictments charged against ACORN in states including Nevada, Pennsylvania and Washington state and will look for more. Also included is the association between Obama and ACORN. It can easily be researched by conducting a word search. I found some of my information at Eagle Forum who happened to send me an email. When they start asking questions I will respond by reading the list of indictments along with their association with BO. Don't relent. Keep reading the charges. I'm sure many of you have other ideas that could be just as effective. Please post them short of any violent suggestions.
It's time to stand up and organize against a tyrannical government who is willing to usurp the Constitution and our personal freedoms to destroy our Democratic Republic and free market economy. Our founding fathers led by example when they turned back an out of control government. It's time we follow their lead.
I would like to see what my fellow FReepers suggest, but slamming the door on them seems like the most efficient way to deal with them.
Nice plan,lol
Just ask them which Republicans they are supporting for office. Problem gone.
Most are just regular folks (a lot of college kids) who need a temporary job and are serving the US in a noble cause, the US census......
That stated, the invasiveness of the questions that they have been given is of concern.
Outside of the mandatory constitutionally mandated questions of number of people and age at the residence, my understanding is that you can refuse to answer all other questions and ask them to leave.........
Now, if you have an Acorn person show up to take the census, then answer the legiimate questions and have fun.....just make sure you video record the entire confrontation because there is a good chance they WILL file a complaint with local law enforcement (regardless of merit) to intimidate you and others.
Smith & Wesson... works for me!
[and they can't “start a dialog” or debate with my dogs]
Answer the door speaking some crazy gibberish language.
What are they gonna do?
Call for an interpreter?....:)
Just don’t answer the door.
It won’t likely be an ACORN rep that makes it this far out into the sticks, I’d say. BUT, whoever shows up will get the minimum information necessary to ‘count’ my household, and that is it.
It’s time to push the gubmint back within the constraints of the US Constitution.
I have yet to have anybody climb over the gate to see if I'm "kidding".
Why would they be coming to the door? They usually mail out the census and then only come to the door if you failed to send it in.
What is the best on-line source for the list of indictments, please?
