This, my friends, is what calling the census an attempt to brainwash children and implying the all-powerful US government is a direct threat to your precious bodily fluids reaps.

I hope Bachmann is happy now, as she's getting her wish. This poor man is a victim of the fearmongering the Radicals have sown. There's a certain quote by a certain man that's worth quoting here: "If you say for years that the Jews are not even human and that Russians are subhuman, such an explosion is inevitable." It is in that sense that Bachmann's fearmongering is directly responsible for this man's death. Shame on the Radical Right.

Yes I clearly solved the case of "man hung in cemetery with writing scrawled on chest" vs "occam's razor"

great. but you've strayed from the op's premise. was this perpetrated by michelle bachman's zombie death squads?

It wouldn't surprise me in the least if the people involved end up also believing the same things Bachmann actively promotes WRT the Census.

assuming you're right for the sake of argument, i'm betting the person who killed him never heard of michelle bachman.

care to wager for entertainment purposes only?

Just out of curiosity, based on what we know, why was FED written on him? If you had to guess.

i'd bet he wandered into the wrong place at the wrong time. just like in the old moonshine days, government agents aka revenoors aren't welcomed with open arms in the back woods.

So we're in agreement that it was most likely someone with strong anti-government sentiments. Great!

crazy people in the back woods are more likely to do crazy fucked-up backwoods shit like this when it is normalized by regular, admired talking heads on television.

she is a lot like a terrorist leader. other than the killing people thing, she has legions that hang on her every word, will do pretty much whatever she says, and
