      @Poynter Found many great characters for stories by door-knocking. Also felt like scum in certain situations. Benefits depend on situation.

      @Poynter Always scary, usually ends with a slammed door to the face. But always worth it.

        @Poynter The more doors knocked on the better. Once thought a murder suspect answered the door. Heart stopped. Turned out to be his brother.

      @Poynter Wasn't scary as it's just another part of the gig. Even when I didn't get a story, it's good for people to see ya working the beat.

        @Poynter knocking on doors after a murder-suicide. Ran off a farm by the shooter's father who said he was coming back with a pitch fork.
