Perhaps the BEST B1G Forum anywhere, here at College Football Fan Site, CFB51!!!

So I started by looking at what the fired employee said, which was that in other situations, people working in her space feared for their safety. Initially I thought that shouldn't overcome the need to help, but this person also didn't seem like she was the person overseeing search and rescue. Then I poked a bit more.

That job and the people she oversees are basically government workers who go door-to-door after the disaster danger has passed and say "I'm from the government and I'm here to help." They help sign people up for disaster relief funds, direct people to counseling, general government aid. So this isn't a case of being denied rescue in a flood. It's being denied a solicitor who is trying to sign you up for a government program.

Now it is fair to say no matter your political affiliation, you shouldn't be denied a door knock from a federal employee. But even as people on this board have said, it is wise to be wary of many of our firearm friendly friends in the midst of a disaster zone. A few folks on this board have said after a big storm, they'd light up someone who came onto their property, with the belief it might be a looter or someone trying to take advantage of the situation. I believe Badge himself said he might do such a thing.

So if I'm a government employee driving through flood ravaged western NC (or a lot of Florida), and I see a house with a large Trump flag over a "don't tread on me flag" I might wonder if the occupant may align with the "don't come on my property" side of things, and me yelling "I'm here from the government run by Joe Biden" as bullets fly may not help me.

So at the very least, there might be a bit of a pickle. But at the very least, it's good to know what we're talking about, the upside of the aid being offered and the acknowledgement there's a chance for something going sideways for that payoff. (I’d still side on knocking on all doors, but I can see the other side)
