If this account is accurate it certainly rules out suicide as some had speculated.

Drugs would be my guess too.

I'm just seeing this thread as I'm flipping channels......Rachel "The Hunk" Maddow is, of course, currently shrieking that this is the work of right wing redneck fanatics who hate the idea of census takers.

Guy probably tripped over a Marijuana farm operation. Rural Kentucky is perfect growing territory.

How long do you think it will take the media to try and pin this on “right wing extremist antigovernment teabaggers”?

I'm surprised they haven't already

Since the victim was acting in his official capacity as a federal employee, I doubt Kentucky state law will be relevant.

There’s a lot of preliminary census work done before the actual, office Census starts.

This may go against the concensus (pun intended), but my gut says it is what it appears to be. A census taker got too inquizative with his questions and some KY hill william took offense. They have been known to do that. “you’ll never get out of Harlen alive”

Why do you jump to the conclusion that it was Rednecks?

It was likely done by a cruder version of McVeigh. People like that are out there, they exist. And like all traitors bent on overthrowing the government, from whatever quarter of the political spectrum, if found and proven guilty, they should themselves hang by the neck until dead.

You are right BUT, census workers are tasked to gather "pre-census" information in 2009, including gathering GPS locations of each of their family dwellings in their district, and verification of postal mail addresses.

Then they will return to take the actual census in 2010.The census administration is now within the White House. At the very least there will be some redistricting for the 2012 elections, to favor the incumbent.

And some of us will be under satellite surveillance at the hands of Homeland Security, especially if some are out spoken and organize conservative assemblies. So far I have avoided them. They already took my home's GPS data without my permission.

Roger that. I had one show up to quiz me on the addition I did to the house.

And I’ll admit I am never very helpful to census workers.

Okay....this happened in “Big Creek, KY” ‘nuf said!

I used to know a girl from Boneyard Holler in Kentucky. She was something else...

Maybe Mr. Census guy came across a resident getting too friendly with his family or the farm animals.

ROFL...you've gotten your idea of the capabilities of reconnaissance satellites from bad movies, which give the impression that they record movies of anywhere at the planet at any time with license plate resolution. Nothing could be further from the truth.

NRO only in its wildest dreams and 1000 times its budget would have the capability to follow individual people around.
