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.

Ah I get it, after re-reading the thread and 2 seconds of googling.

They're alarmed because the census people going out to their houses are recording the GPS locations of the houses as they visit them.

The are alarmed because now they've lost the privacy they had before, where the census people had to actually look up the address they had listed for the resident in a street directory the census people had to randomly wander the wilderness before they could find their house. Frightening.

When should they expect the government cruise missiles to start landing with high-precision in a radius of 50m around their house?
