I'm not telling you not to do it ... but I'm asking anyone else who sees this to tell me if they EVER appreciate door-to-door solicitations.

You're gonna get a lot of doors slammed in your face, you're going to have to knock on 200 doors to get one sale, and you're going to get people calling the cops even if you're fully legit.

Tell me, you, the original poster: Do YOU answer the door when you know it's a salesman that's just going door-to-door?

While I agree that it's a sensible and logical idea, the police aren't babysitters.

You're found driving intoxicated, you get taken to the station, you get written up, and because you're not charged with something that requires you to be locked up, you're let go.

Plus the police probably have no right to detain you in that case.

But yes, I agree, letting them sober up safely at the station, would be wise.
