What's up with Amnesty International?

They have people all over the place, standing at tables and trying to engage passersby in conversation. Today they were out near my house in the humidity and rain. I ignore them, but are they trying to raise money? Are they employees or volunteers?

    Are they the same as the Jehovah's Witnesses? I like when they come Cos they always ask after I tell them I don’t want to hear their stuff  if they can do anything for me and I tell them to shovel my driveway. The actually do it lol.

    No, that happened probably about 5 years or so ago. I was shovelling my driveway at the time and they came started trying tell me about their stuff and I said wasn’t interested. Then they asked if they could give me some literature and if there was anything they could do for me. so I said you can finish shovelling my drive way, they did. I just went  inside and watched tv.
