A census worker, substitute teacher, Eagle Scout, and a local director for Boy Scouts of America was found hanged in Kentucky with the word "fed" scrawled on his chest.

The level of cruelty and ignorance required to do something like this to another person is just absolutely stunning.

that is horrible and somewhat unexpected. I mean I didnt know there was an epidemic of hate crimes against people who are taught to represent the government.

Attacking a federal worker during or because of his federal job is a federal crime.

Last time I checked, so is lynching.

He sounds like he was a truly nice and caring person, what an absolutely horrifying thing to read about :(

It's appalling to think that things like that can and do actually happen in the world

[Sidharth Chaturvedi]

...jesus, poor guy. What a bunch of fucking morons.

[Wiggles]

That is horrible... Why on earth would someone go out of their way to do this?

God bless him.

this just reeks of a set-up imo.

I'll bite, setup who and why?

One of Obama's people did it to prevent him from admitting he used his eagle scout training to forge a US birth certificate. They intend to blame it on the "good ol' boys."

Ilaekae, you and your old guy humor. Cue the billions of thanks for this post...

On a related note, I didn't know they teach forgery in Scouts...maybe I should have done the whole Boy Scout thing after all.

As is so typical of these conspiracies, they don't come right out and call it forgery:

There is not to many details about this yet that i can find. But when you find a random census worker hanged in a public forest with some anti government stuff written on his chest, i find that pretty odd. These are the kind of things that security agencies love becuase it gives them ammo. This is why i am naturally sceptical of this kind of thing.

[Dirty C]

Yeah, you're right to be suspicious. Fireproof underpants and tinfoil hats are also a good idea.

i hope Jack Bauer will get them.

@ Blahm
A Setup? Humm…
Like this guy was some secret Russian spy who was advancing on some Chinese double agent who compromised CIA and then he was caught, killed and set up like a redneck anti government protest murder to keep the CIA and FBI off track while they smuggle some warheads to Africa?

Or a setup by the goernment so they have the population support to clean up the area?

i dunno... i don’t really see anything that would indicate a setup worth carving up a poor guy and how someone would benefit from that.

Oh I dunno about that, it seems to benefit the conspiracy theorists pretty well ;)
