It looks like one of Glenn Beck’s or Michelle Bachmann’s butt boy fans has decided to murder a census worker:
The FBI is investigating whether anti-government sentiment led to the hanging death of a U.S. Census worker near a Kentucky cemetery. A law enforcement official told The Associated Press the word ‘fed” was scrawled on the dead man’s chest.
The body of Bill Sparkman, a 51-year-old part-time Census field worker and teacher, was found Sept. 12 in a remote patch of the Daniel Boone National Forest in rural southeast Kentucky. The Census has suspended door-to-door interviews in rural Clay County, where the body was found, pending the outcome of the investigation.
Speaking as a former “part-time Census field worker”, I think that until the perp is found, the door to door survey should be stopped now.
If you don’t like census takers, fine. No congressman for you.
If there is reduced representation of the crazy parts of the country, then the governance of the country will improve.
