    I refuse to believe that that is the answer. [|)]

    There is no logic. Had the ‘pest controller’ opened the front door and been confronted by the owner is full get-up and with angry-eyes in place, I could believe that his life may seem over. Or, perhaps a verbal threat of some kind…

    The fact is, if this owner was truly going to be a threat to the ‘pest controller’ (black or otherwise) surely he would have dressed for the occasion. The fact that the suit was in the cupboard suggests to me that perhaps he was symbolically expressing his wish to change his way. “Closing the door on his past”!! Perhaps he purposefully chose the euro-challenged pest controller as a gesture – expressing his evolutionary embracement of all man-kind.

    Imagine if this pest-controller reacted to his fear and instead maimed, or even killed, the owner who innocently was rejoicing in the good-will he believed he had bestowed on his fellow human being.

    It’s just so sad.[:0]

    I’ve gone and upset myself now. *sob*

    Well done Mel

    …but I can’t believe that that is the answer.

    Are we making an assumption here that every KKK member kills every black person the meet?

    Hi Guys

    On the other side of the door is St Peter.
    Of course he realises he is going to die and go to heaven.

    Come on guys, I think it’s safe to say that it is an old riddle, and very American based. Depending on what part of the country they were in, we know they did some bloody awful things to the blacks.

    Now let’s assume the homeowner called the exterminator company. He would not have known necessarily that they were going to send a black fellow would he? So suffice to say that when not wearing clothes of any kind, we leave them hanging in the wardrobe – do we not? Even ‘ceremonial clothing’.

    We also don’t know what ‘did’ happen after he saw the outfit, but put yourself in a black man’s shoes (in KKK territory), and what do you think when you see the outfit in the closet. I disagree with BlackJack in that the clothes being in the closet meant the guy was ‘changing his ways’. If he were doing that, he would have destroyed the outfit altogether.

    Aussie, no one told me. I was just talking to a friend last night, and asked him if he’d ever heard the riddle before. He hadn’t, and then it hit me, and I said that he was black and it was a KKK outfit. My friend said ‘You didn’t tell me he was black!’. That’s cos I didn’t realise it until that moment.

    Cheers
    Mel

    CONGRATS MEL!!!!! AWWWWWWWW, all that for such a “boring” answer. I thought it would be much more exciting than that and I agree that many of the answers that “we” all gave were much more “fun”. This has been a fun riddle though.
    Thanks Aussierogue
