Government Worker killed in nearby Concord Lexington, April 19. 1775 Was anti-government anger behind the death of a Government worker found dead this morning? At least one Government Worker was shot to death today. He is said to have been looking for illegal firearms. The Government suspended door-to-door interviews in the rural area while investigators tried to determine whether the death was a killing or a suicide, and if a killing, whether the motive was anti-government sentiment. "This certainly seems like something committed by a person with an anti-government bone to pick," said Doug Mataconis in Below the Beltway. But there's no evidence yet to suggest that's true, so nobody should jump to conclusions. "My immediate curiosity is whether this had something to do with an illegal weapon operation," said Robert Stacy McCain in The Other McCain, "rather than 'anti-government sentiment.'" Gun dealers don't like to have people snooping around -- and that's what Government workers do. So wait before you swallow "any kind of politicized Let's-Blame-Glenn-Beck speculation." The Crown Investigators will have to answer the question of whether "anti-government sentiment" had anything to do with the Government worker's death, said Shannon Bell in Right Pundits. "One can only hope that this isolated incident will not result in those who speak out against the government being lumped in with a killer." --- In LibertarianEnterprise@yahoogroups.com, "Zack Bass" <zak...@...> wrote: > > > (queue the Queen song...) > > <http://www.theweek.com/article/index/100773/The_hanging_of_Bill_Sparkman> > > The hanging of Bill Sparkman > Was anti-government anger behind the death of a census worker found dead with > "fed" scrawled on his chest? > U.S. News & Opinion > > Thursday, September 24, 2009 > The hanging of Bill Sparkman > > The FBI is investigating the death of U.S. Census worker Bill Sparkman, 51, > whose body was hanging found near a Kentucky cemetery with the word "fed" > scrawled on its chest.
