They were calling to see if I was going to continue with my donations to their support fund. I can't think of the proper name for it but you get the jist. The man on the phone thanked me for my past support and asked what level I was able to do this year. Until recently I have always tried to send them something even if it was just $25. Now don't get me wrong, I don't hate LEO's and I don't want to start any arguments I just need to vent. Financially I can not afford to give any more. I've probably had the worst two years of my life so far and I'm only 36. My mother passed away unexpectedly last march at the age of 66. (she is no longer in any pain) I took it really hard because she was unable to work for the past 5 years and I was taking care of her. I was in management at the time but I couldn't focus on my job.(tires) Rather than make a possible life threatening mistake I decided to step down and take some time to clear my head. Two weeks ago my father passed away, also at age 66. When the man asked "how much could I give?" I politely told him I just can't do it anymore. Even after I explained my situation he still kept badgering me for a donation. After that the politeness went right out the window. I lit him up one side and down the other, as well as told them not to call again. Why do these people need to harass you when you say no? I REALLY can not afford it anymore. This is not the first time they called and the result was the same when the last guy called.
