Domestic terrorism in Kentucky? The FBI is investigating whether anti-government sentiment led to the hanging death of a U.S. Census worker near a Kentucky cemetery. A law enforcement official told The Associated Press the word "fed" was scrawled on the dead man's chest. Tragic. A few more details here and here. The Bachmann connection made in the MeFi post will be important if this does turn out to be motivated by right-wing paranoia.
