Feds probe US Census worker hanging in Kentucky - Forbes.com


Let's see I've had people spit in my face, slam doors on me, try to hit me with their vehicles, and been called every dirty name there is in more than one language.
The way people feel about the Federal Govt right now it would surprise me if this doesn't happen more often especially in rural communities all over the country.

Wow, that's horrible.

That's scary and awful. That poor man. I hope they find who (or what group) did it.

That is so sad and I sincerely hope they find out who committed this horrible crime. Peace. Catherine

It is very scarey. I worked for this year for the Census as an enumerator in KY. A couple times I ran into a some strange people that scared me a bit. Good thing is I did not have to make contact with people. I just had to map spot in thier addresses. I did however have to knock on doors to let them know what I was doing while standing on thier porch. Most times I would just knock lightly and get done and on my way. There were times though in rural areas where I drove up driveways way back in the woods 1/2 mile or more and dogs would chase me, I have even had someone let thier dog loose on me once. People do not realize the census workers are just temp empolyees getting info. They associate you will the government agencies that they are so upset over. It really is ashame. This is just a man who was trying to earn a little money to pay his bills.
