Census worker hanged, "FED" written on his chest

What implication? The FACT that those two events occured at appoximately the same time.

If you aren't implying anything then why are you mentioning it!?

Well, as that's obvious from the original post, if all you're doing is repeating what was already posted, with no agenda in doing so at all, that makes the sum total of your contribution here redundant and useless.
 
Look guys we have been warned from many sources that violence such as this could be entirly possible...Now that it possibly could have happened AGAIN me mentioning that there is a coiencidental FACT that the two events happened approx the same time is a big deal...

Run...run as fast as you can....

Violence such as what? I thought you weren't implying anything.
 
I've been paranoid for a while that the anti-government sentiment on the right is going to spill out into actual violence. I don't want to blame it on that, but can we at least agree that it is one possibility?

Sure, its a possibility. Its one of the first ones that crossed my mind, along with the possibility that it was done by marijuana farmers or meth lab operators in the area. And if was done by an anti-government loon, that in no way discredits or smears the entire right wing/libertarian opposition to Obama. A lone fringe fanatic or even a small group of fringe fanatics are not representative of an entire movement.

There's a difference between considering it a possibility, and jumping to the immediate conclusion -- and then, as goldendog has done here, dismiss any other possibility out of hand. Except now he's saying he's implying nothing, except when he is.
 
You guys have it all wrong. Obviously the killer is upset about K-Fed's recent weight gain. :roll:

Something I'm still not clear on, is why would meth dealers write FED on him? Anyone have a good reason?

Also, how many people do you think it takes till it reflects on the movement?

I think it's a stupid theory. Sorry MH, but I do.
 
That is has anything to do with the 9/12 movement. Like people never hated or mistrusted gov't before.

I didn't blame it on 9/12 specifically, that was golden dog. But it seems to me that the anti-government forces on the right have lately have increasingly resorts to intimidation and veiled threats of violence (Like signs at protests that say "we come unarmed... this time"), and increasingly there seems to be a loss of civility and this view that this administration and its supporters are not just wrong but evil.

You are wrong..All I have done is mentioned factual things that are in the OP.
Is it not a fact the this occured on or around 9-11 & 9/12. Why are people so defensive about me mentioning facts reguarding the OP?

This could of course be a suicide...but really if the word FED was scrawled in his body in a majic maker or something like that then yes that could be a possiblity. But if it was carved in that puts that scenerio out IMHO.

Druggies by nature do not draw attention to themselves in this manner. I would imagine that the people that have been feeding these fanitical loons would love to explain it away as being druggies.

A message was being sent here.

A Fed worker, a fact that the killer or killers obviously knew.

done on or about 9-11.

A lynching of all things.

Ignore it if you must.

There has been a legacy of illegal substance production and a corresponding loathing of fed interference in those hills that goes back a long ways.

The original settlers were very clannish Scotsmen with an independent streak and a mistrust of government, and their descendants still are clannish, still look out for one another, and have been producing substances ranging from alcohol to pot to meth in blatant disregard to government law for a long long while.

They don't want any government nosing around in their business up there in the hills, and anyone and everyone who works for the government who intrudes has been labeled either a revenuer or a fed for a long long time, this is nothing new.

But couldn't this backfire very easily and lead to a full scale war, with FTA sending in tons of agents to root it out? It just doesn't seem even remotely like a sound business move. And why would a census worker find something worth killing over? His job is generally to go to your door and ask basic demographic questions.
 
He was a easy target and a symbol and Representative of the Goverment.

Wouldn't it be just as counter-productive for the right-wing zealot tea-baggers to attract the same kind of attention towards themselves?

I think you're giving the hill-dwelling, meth-farmers a little too much credit.

It makes sense for a right-winger to do it in the same sense it made sense to lynch freedom riders during the civil rights era.

Who knows.. this is still just a hypothesis as to what happened, hard to tell what goes through anyone's mind, and whether or not they would have thought out any and all ramifications of their actipns or not.

It is a more plausible hypothesis than to think that this is some right versus left partisan issue. They don't care if there is a D or an R up there, its the government, it is all evil, and all unwelcome deep in the hill country.

What makes you think the pissed-off conservative theory is wrong?
 
So you don't think them thar hills would be full of "tea baggers" (your words not mine)

My words? think you have me confused with someone else.. thar was my word at least.

But no they are not tea baggers.. most up there have too much disdain for guvment to get involved on either side.
