No, you are not being mean, Michael. I know the feeling both with collectors for charities and also salespeople coming to the door and being a real nuisance. Sometimes they can be quite rude if you refuse to hear them out. However, here in South Australia the Government has issued stickers to place on our doors that say:

DO NOT KNOCK
No Sales People
Door knocking here is unlawful

Tell you what, they do the trick. I have had people walk right up to the door, read this notice and they can’t get away fast enough! Not sure re charity collectors, though we haven’t had any since we put the sticker on the door. Salespeople know that if they still knock they can be prosecuted. Don’t know if you have anything like this over in the U.K.
