View Full Version : I just commited over 200 federal offences!
So Im driving around my nieghborhood insert my flyers into peoples mailboxes. Then I get a call, Im all excited thinking its my first customer, its some guy telling me its a federal offence to open mailboxes. So between the amount I did today and yesterday was about 200 flyers, thats 200 mailboxes which I guess Is 200 federal offences. So back to square one. I was told attaching them to the little flag thingy on the mailbox WAS legal however I tested it out on a few and its hard to get them to stay there. So Im thinking of attaching them with a paper clip to the flagy thingy mabob

Hope your not in NYC. I believe it is illegal to distribute flyers like that at all because they contribute to litter on the streets. You can be fined for each flyer.
It started Nov 1 '03
Fines start at $75 per handbill, poster, sticker, or other form of advertisement
The law creates a "rebuttable presumption" whereby any person or group whose name, telephone numbers, or other identifying information appearing on the handbill will be responsible for the violation.
Longtime lurker... not much of a poster.

Same shit happened to me in 6th grade!! I was starting a local grass cutting buisness and some fucking old man called the cops and complained that i put something in his mail box. luckily my friend who I was starting this with mom worked at the police station so it was no big deal. They just told us to find another place on or near the door for it. like rolling it up and sticking in the door handle if you can or closing it in a screen door. some shit. we did that from then on, but i was so pissed at that old man for calling. like it really fucking bother him that much.

I guess blowing them to kingdom come with M-80s isn't too cool in the eyes of the feds either, huh? Because, ummm, these 'guys I used to know' used to do that on the 4th of July.

What the fuck is with old guys and mail? I remember I was in pennsylvainia one time and I was walking through a mall. Anyway, I always would look in those UPS slot things. So I looked in one and this old guy walks up to me and says "you wouldn't want to get cought looking in one of those... you know what I mean?"
And that's why I'm the way I am today.

With my business I do a lot of emailing and direct mailing. Its hard to advertise any other way when you dont have the money to get in the paper or in magazines.

That technically speaking is called trespasing. Ive thougt about putting them in parking lots figureing any other person looking for business would do the same thing, but if you get caught and knowing all the old fucks down here they would complain

spend a few bucks and put postcards in shops (ie. tattoo shops, bars, bodegas, etc..) that might let you drop off a pile.

That skeeves me out cause someone was touching MY CAR! I know we all have to make a living but what gives one the right to touch my car? I just raise my wipers when i enter a parking lot that has a tendency to have miscreants advertising in the lot.
The other thing I hate is when these scumbags kind of corner me and hassle me to do dent repair on my car. I mean they put this whole guilt trip on me and why I should let them do the work. The hell? I always tell the guys that there is another guy in the shopping center down the street who is offering to do the job for $40 instead of this guys $50.
Kind of like when those guys are collecting at the street corner I tell them I gave at the office and I give food to homeless guys in sight of other homeless guys in clear sight after I told the one guy I had no money.

the best way to handle mailbox troubles is to drive by at 3am with a friend hanging out of your back window with a bat. then as you pass teh mailbox (only works for curbside mailboxes), he hits it with a bat and you are gone in a sec

some fucking old man called the cops and complained that i put something in his mail box. luckily my friend who I was starting this with mom worked at the police station so it was no big deal.
Good thing the old man didn't call the Post Office. Postal Inspectors are Border-Patrol-badass. And they have nationwide jurisdiction. And they ain't afraid, just like the Border Patrol, to crack heads. Think FBI without some dillettante cross-dressing chief.
On a lighter note my retired Postal Inspector uncle tells the story of some postal patron complaining tht the WPA mural in the lobby of the Post Office in DC was all fucked up and it represented the Postal Service as a whole. When my uncle asked why, he was directed to the part of the mural that had a Pony Express rider putting his lame horse out of its misery. "See? That's just like the Government!"
The rider was painted shooting his lame horse in the ass.
