It would not be wise for one of those ACORN members to come to my house durning the census.

They will also do some other “door to door” activity no doubt.

Sorry, I don’t open my door for anyone I don’t know. That’s how it’s going to stay.

I worked for the census after I got out of high school. Worst-run organization that I’ve ever seen, bar none. They would hire anyone who could act vaguely human; I think they would have hired an orangutang if he had a clipboard. They hired people who thought five-digit zip codes were “too complicated.”

And they made it real, real, clear that (1) it didn’t matter how much money got spent. (2) it didn’t matter if the census was accurate, but (3) it was VERY important that all the stupid forms got filled out properly. I mean, this got drilled into everyone’s heads day in and day out.

Hard to believe ACORN could make it any worse.

This should stay on the top so as many people as possable can see it..

All I can say is if they step a foot on my property they will not like what happens to them..I have a POSTED sign that reads “You will be shot if you trespass here”..And if I get something by mail I will set a special fire to burn the papers..People do not send anything back to these commies..

There will be non-ACORN people playing a role in 2010 Census, too, I expect. Considering the average ACORN person’s I.Q. is only in double digits, it could get interesting. Of course, ACORN relies more on thuggery than brains, so it could get ugly, too.

To: keep your powder dry

The last Census, WE refused to fill out all of the form sent to us as we both thought it quite intrusive.

Long story shorter that would involve me literally physically tossing a guy off our property, a woman drove onto our driveway, parked her car, and sat there leaning on the horn until I was compelled to find out what was going on outside the house.

WE live in an extremely rural area, so such an event as someone sitting in a car leaning on the horn is quite unusual to say the least.

I approached the car cautiously until I determined it was one of them. Yup, “One of them”. She rolled down her window, and she said “Mr RQSR I need to ask you some questions to finish filling out this form”. I walked back towards the house without saying anything to her, and she resumed leaning on the horn.

I should have let her wear down the battery, but as she was blocking my cars, and I couldn’t leave I went back out and told her that I would not answer any intrusive questions period, but try me. I answered a couple of her questions, and walked away again.

This time she departed. I guess the two questions I had answered believing them to be not all that intrusive were sufficient to cause some relief from the horn honking.

This coming Census I have a plan to simply position one of the cars to the North RV parking area, and drive out the other gate at the North side of the property to go visit with friends in town. The Census person can sit and lay on the horn until they wear down the battery for all I care.

How about if we just lie to the census takers on the invasive questions? If it is stuff only we know, how would they find out differently?
