When the conversation no longer interested me, I told them I wished to leave, and that they should arrest me if they weren't going to permit that. I was allowed to leave.
I would not repeat this, however. If a similar situation occurs, I will most likely use Tim's method. I find being served with subpoenas to be distasteful.
Again, I have never had to face this decision of what I would actually do. Would I refuse to answer the door, would I blow them away with my 12-gauge, would I tell them that they were trespassing and that they have 20 seconds to be off of my property, or would I roll over on others as Choate did? I don't know what I would do. I like to think I would simply not answer the door at all once I saw that two agents were standing on my doorstep. I have nothing to say to the FBI or anyone else in law enforcement, on any matter related to topics on this list. If I am not under arrest, shove off. If I _am_ under arrest, then "anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law." There is no reason for anyone on this list to _ever_ talk to the Feds. --Tim May
