WASHINGTON (AP) - The FBI is investigating the hanging death of a U.S. Census worker near a Kentucky cemetery. A law enforcement official says the word "fed" was scrawled on his chest.

The body of Bill Sparkman, a 51-year-old Census field worker and occasional teacher, was found Sept. 12 in the Daniel Boone National Forest in rural southeast Kentucky.

Investigators have said little about the case.

PS -- "Reichstag" is spelled with one "g".

I know, it's not my graphic, I just shoplifted it, spelling error and all.

Once two strangers climbed old Rocky Top
Looking for a moonshine still
Strangers ain’t come down from Rocky Top
Reckon they never will

-— Prayers for the deceased. I sure wouldn’t want to be a census man in Appalachia.

PRINTER'S DEVIL in the detail?

What a "striking example" to mention the words ... 'stereotype pigeonhole" ...
which is an ancient printing term, in a printing sense it was first coined in 1798.

It represents a printing object originally a duplicate impression of an original
typographical element used for printing instead of the original.

Maybe the killer was a printer ... because the "type" used
by printers is always worked while in the "upside down, and backwards" position.

.... what do you think?

Considering the area, I’d bet a bunch this is drug related.

Daniel Boone National has practically been deforested due to Pot growth.

I’m betting he was identified as a DEA informant.

Sounds like a false flag operation to me.

I agree.

If so, then I have to have a certain admiration for him, ACORN and the census aside.

That’s almost always the case in the part of the country identified as Kentucky, West Virginia, Western Virginia, Western North Carolina, Western South Carolina, and some other stuff, oh, yeah, Tennessee and part of Georgia.

Exactly.

That part of Kentucky was Yankee Blue All the Way Every Day ~ Kill a Reb for Dinner, Stick'em in a Pot.

Still is.

It's the "revenooer" angle that is relevant here. Outsiders are distrusted ~ as are neighbors you don't like.

You have to know where the people live beforehand and there is no single, up to date data base available with accurate and complete information.

They've already finished with that step. They sent out 100,000 workers who visted every house, and entered the data into the Census dat base.

They have the GPS co-ordinates for every front door in the United States.

I think that a person would have a good reason to be paranoid about a 2010 census worker showing up on his doorstep in 2009.

“Countdown to the ‘right wing extremist’ and ‘right wing lynch mob’ comments in the MSM.”

Mr. Beck, do you feel any personal responsibility for the current wave of right-wing hate-violence?

Census workers are already out there? I thought the 2010 census happened in 2010?

Anyway, this is probably one of the soon to be numerous false flags telegraphed by Pelosi in her recent academy award performance.
