There has been anti-government sentiment in Kentucky since the whiskey makers moved there from Pennsylvania and Virginia during and after the Whiskey Rebellion. Still, (no pun intended)it wouldn’t surprise me if this was staged. A Potemkin lynching.

Pelosi feared "political violence"?

Obviusly he’s not black or the fact that he was a census worker or a ‘fed’ wouldn’t have even been mentioned.
My guess is he stumbled across something he shouldn’t have seen - pot field, still, meth lab, etc.

I think this was near Harlan, KY. If so, I’m not surprised. Harlan is a rough place.

Yes that is truly sad. Probably just an ordinary Joe who was trying to make a living.
How long before government workers are added to hate crime legislation? I’ll give it a week.

Revenewers, IRS, Cencus wrokers....it’s Appalachia, we don’t trust the government at all! I’d imagine he was hung as a warning, otherwise he’;s have been buried and never found.

Probably arranged by the Obama mafia to cause fear toward the great American patriots, I mean the tea party crowd.

Don’t get to excited. Wait for the facts. If you remember Rush got blamed for c*** that didn’t make sense.
Our side is to smart to START anything. Maybe the DUMS are getting impatient.
Always 2 sides to a story.

What was he doing in a REMOTE part of the Forest???? Sad....but til I know more info, I will hold my judgement about who did it.
US Census workers are instructed to drive EVERY single road within their assigned areas, and the ENTIRE nation is included, so this would include REMOTE parts of forests. They are looking for any living quarters or places where people are living, even if it's a homeless guy living out in the woods, so there is absolutely nothing unusual about a Census employee being out in the woods.

My DH has family from that area....woe to anyone that stumbles on a pot farm.Rural Appalachia still has its share of moonshiners, plus plenty of pot growers and meth labs. And they don't take kindly to strangers poking around. This guy probably stumbled onto something he shouldn't have.
Up in the hollers, the "law of the land" still prevails.

The census is supposed to be taken every 10 years——not at random in between.
Perhaps some ‘moonshine maker’ thought it was a revenuer calling himself a census worker.
They better not show up at this residence.
Name and age only- then get off my property.
