Yeah, fortunately for us, they are not allowed to go knocking on doors. I realize it upsets some people, but long ago I personally stopped being upset. I have always invited them into my home (they're not usually murderers and/or rapists), and we've spent plenty of time talking about their faith and mine (Catholic). I feel VERY comfortable speaking with them (or others). But I always reject accepting Watchtower etc. because they just won't switch me onto their ideas. Not sure, but I believe being strong in one's own faith would lead one to handle this without emotional involvement.
