When I lived in Longmont, Co., I worked night shift in Denver so I was a day sleeper. I used to get woken up every other morning for over a month by the local bible-thumpers(Mormon & others) proseltyzing. I started meeting them at the door with my copy of the Koran and telling them I would listen to them about Christianity if they would listen to me about submitting to the will of Allah. That usually got rid of them pretty quick, much quicker than acting gay. Then, in the middle of all this, my fence got tagged by some local gangsta wannabes. After I sanded the gang tags off, I went and broke out my flagpoles and flags from Sandy Beach, mounting the poles on the side fence visible down Collier St. for about a mile. I had collected flags of all the countries I visited including many Islamic countries. So I flew all my Muslim flags for about a week.
The results, my fence was never tagged again & the bible-thumpers finally left me alone. I always thought it would be fun to dress up as a Muslim and show up outside one of these mega-churches on Sunday morning passing out free Korans and inviting everyone to submit to the will of Allah. When the parishoners got irate, my answer would be, "Now you know how we feel."
