The shitty salesman who won't leave your stoop is harassment. Religious evangalists who keep coming to your door after you tell them to stop is harassment.

When someone tells you to stop and go away and you refuse, that is harassment.

You are exactly the kind of annoyance I'm trying to avoid. I don't care at all what you have to say. I have my own problems and I'm trying to mind my own damn business.

You don't have some God-given right to demand the undivided attention of a stranger. That is literally the behavior of a 5-year old. Grow up.

I can count on one hand the number of times a stranger approached me and didn't either try to harrass me or ask me for money.

I don't think my headphones are depriving me of some grand experience of human life.

Morality and law are completely disjoint. On a Venn diagram, it's two circles separated by about a lightyear or so.

Buying a used car instead of new is essentially theft from the manufacturers. Won't someone think of these poor helpless mega-corporations?!
